About Derek McCaughan

Greetings, I am a veteran of the creative industry, possessing advanced proven skills in game asset creation and art direction of both new IP and established brands, from concept to final deliverable. I take pride in providing exciting, compelling visual solutions of the highest quality and I'm at home in fast-paced, highly iterative environments having shipped over 50 award-winning products with 20 plus years experience with companies such as Electronic Arts, Disney, Marvel, Lucasfilm, Nintendo, PopCap Games, Crunchyroll, Hasbro, and many more. I have extensive multi-platform experience, including Mobile, Facebook, PC, and console. I've also succeeded in hiring, mentoring, and managing top-level, multi-disciplined art teams. Proficient in the latest creative software, I have refined a unique set of highly-polished signature styles plus I’m quite adept at matching established styles. I also have extensive experience with development of major brands, including key art and logo creation, ad art, merchandising art, and most other creative services. For the past 6 years, I've enjoyed my role as Senior Designer at FiGPiN, where I'm involved in every aspect of development and design of these innovative collectible pins, having illustrated and shipped nearly 300 unique designs. I work directly with official licensors and studios, as well as the factories manufacturing these products.Please have a look at my portfolio: https://derekmccaughan.wixsite.com/websiteand my ArtStation Page:
