    Concept Artist | Character Designer | Illustrator | Graphic Designer

    I’m Nathan Aguilar, a designer turned illustrator and concept artist based in Vancouver, BC. I’m skilled at creating memorable characters and concepts for video games and engaging illustrations for brands. In short, I make people see things — in a good way.

    Versatility is my strong suit. I can also contribute to projects that need branding, exhibit design, motion design and simple animations. This creative adaptability comes from me wanting to know how everything works.

    When I’m not working, I’m experimenting with characters and storylines for my own video game, learning another skateboard trick, playing rhythm games or building another Gundam model kit. Do you have any good shelf recommendations?
