Michael Smith
Art Director - Exient
"I managed Miche at Exient Malta, where he held the position of Lead Artist on several mobile titles. Miche impressed me from the off with his fantastic eye for detail and quality, he could always suggest ways of improving and perfecting game artwork on every title he worked on. His hands-on art skills, especially his 3D character work, both hi and low poly are world-class. This high quality art helped secure multiple major contracts for Exient. Great attitude and reporting, always keen to learn new skills, will go far. I really enjoyed working with Miche, and would highly recommend him for a lead art role."
