About

Hi, I’m Jefferson Sarmiento—an illustrator and 2D artist from the Philippines currently based in Japan. I’m self-taught and I focus on creating game-ready digital artwork, including character art, environments, props, UI, and promotional visuals.

I’ve worked both as a 2D/concept artist in the game industry and as a freelance artist since 2018. I enjoy developing visual concepts, iterating based on feedback, and delivering polished, deadline-ready artwork that matches project specifications.

Landscape Painting (The Journey Back Home)

I know it's a little rough but here it is, my first castle illustration. I've always liked castle landscape illustrations. I'm a big fan of Andreas Rocha and his way of doing his illustrations. I know I'm far, but I think I'm slowly getting there. Still proud of these one and here's to making more of these. Cheers!! fantasylandscape landscapepainting digitalpainting

Amira

Character Concept Design I did recently. Amira is a tribe magician that uses a magical weapon that discharges smoke that can be used to cover her movements or to shoot at an enemy applying poison and making them hallucinate. Affected targets are unable to move and loses health. I'm planning to upload more of these types of post in the future. characterconceptdesign illustration characterdesign
