My name is Ricardo S\u00e1nchez Moreira, and I&#8217;m a 3D Character Artist from Costa Rica, currently based in Madrid, Spain. I entered the games industry in 2022 after studying 3D Animation, where I discovered my passion for sculpting characters and decided to focus my career in that direction.<\/p>\n<p>Games have always been a big part of my life, and getting the opportunity to work in this field is a dream come true. I began my professional journey at Polyart Studio, where I contributed to titles such as Cloudheim, Play Planet X, and others, as well as internal projects like the Dreamscape Series on FAB.<\/p>\n<p>The role required me to wear multiple hats, working across characters, environments, rigging, and animation, which helped me build a strong technical and artistic foundation. In early 2025, I transitioned into a freelance role with Fair Play Labs as a Character Artist, where I now work full-time on cool game projects, primarily focused on character art while occasionally supporting environment work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Introduction Hello there!
