Available to hire
I’m Surinder Pal Singh, a Lead Concept Artist with 9+ years of experience building high-quality 2D and 3D visuals for characters, environments, weapons, and props across RPGs, strategy, casual/mobile, casino, simulation, and multiplayer games. I love shaping cohesive art direction—creating style guides, model sheets, turnarounds, and visual development documents—so everything from early sketches to production-ready assets feels consistent and game-ready.
I’ve led art teams (including cross-functional groups of 9–16 artists), mentored and trained artists, and worked closely with art and development teams to translate creative vision into scalable pipelines. From contract remote work to studio leadership in Pune and North India, my goal is always the same: deliver strong visual storytelling that elevates gameplay, supports narrative moments, and strengthens a game’s overall brand identity.
