ERIC L. VARGAS

 

I’m an illustrator and comic book artist based in Washington State. Classic anime, mythology, and videogames inspire me, and though I am open to working in many genres, science fiction and fantasy are where I live. My special interests include designing and rendering vehicles, armor, weapons, cybernetics, explosions and architecture.

I work well independently and since collaborating with other writers and artists energizes me, I’m also interested in more opportunities for joining a team, either in-house or work-for-hire.

When I’m not spending more time than I should playing Elden Ring and Helldivers 2, I’m working on my indie comic project “Pirates of the Starry Seas” and my webcomic “Traveling Echoes”.

You can see a selection of past & current work here.
