Antonio Monteforte

My passions are entertainment and art. I love to focus on attention to detail within my work. I would love to start my career as Hard-Surface Artist, specialising in prop design and later becoming a Weapons Artist. My main areas of interest are modern and futuristic, specifically for weapons designs. I enjoy learning new skills that can challenge me artistically.
