Hello! I am Victor Marin, an awarded concept artist, sculptor, writer and filmmaker with over 20 years worth of experience. My work has been featured in some of the best magazines, webpages, press and books around the world.
Some of my clients are Netflix, Warner, Pixologic Zbrush, Taipan Films, Pichiavo, The Dulk, La Noria Films, Artefacto Escenografía, Zero SFX, Escuela de Cine de Barcelona, Fundación Telefónica, Doctor Collector, SD Toys, etc…
I created licensed collectibles for franchises like ‘Jurassic Park’, ‘Fallout’, ‘Skyrim: The elder scrolls’, ‘Mazinger Z’, ‘Kamen Rider’, ‘Jurassic World’ or ‘Stranger Things’.
Co-creator of the main creature of the first movie film in the history of Singapore called ‘Circle Line’ produced by Taipan Films. Also I did the digital sculpture for the townhouse of Valencia for the Fallas 2019 that was produced in a very complex piece (wood) of 26 meters height.
I was the official translator of ZBrush (Spanish), Streamer and Betatester and the first person to teach under the platform of Pixologic ZBrush (zbrushlive.com) in Spanish. Official tester of the 3d Printer ‘Milkshake 3d’ & the graphic monitors ‘Parblo’.
I won a Silver Biznaga with my second shortfilm called ‘RETAP’ in the prestigious Malaga Film Festival in its world premiere.
Currently directing, producing and developing my own movies/tv shows like the awarded 2d animation show ‘Villa Fabula’ or the long feature ‘Lady Hollow’.
In 2024, the Marbella City Council awards me the distinction of honorary citizen.

Victor Marin is an artist who not only understands and uses shapes and colors with perfection, but he also has that rare gift of giving life and movement to his creatures.
