A course by Óscar Sanmartín Vargas
I'm Óscar Sanmartín Vargas, and I'm a freelance illustrator and modeler. I do editorial illustration, making covers for books—mostly for publishers such as Tropo Editores—and designing posters. I have also had experience in the audiovisual world, participating in the art direction of feature films and television series, as well as designing various theater sets. I have always enjoyed building models and dioramas for fun. A few years ago, I decided to incorporate them professionally as a means of creating illustrations.
