After seeing a fellow countryman going to work at Blizzard - Fausto DiMartini - now I see a very good friend and mentor following the same path. Alex Oliver, one of the most talented character creators, modelers and sculptors around, has finally made the leap to the other side! Irvine, CA will soon become crowded with so much talent going there, let me tell ya'. I'm extremely happy for Alex, he's been a great inspiration for me and one of the few responsible for pushing me ever so much towards personal and professional evolution. He's one of those guys that is always quiet, with their sketchbook under one arm... those are the most dangerous ones you can meet!
