Bartlomiej Gawel

Bartlomiej 'Bartek' Gawel is the lead concept artist at CD Projekt RED and responsible for the character model creation.

He was born in 1978 and lives in Warsaw now. He graduated sculpture in Academie of Fine Arts in Poland, where he earned strong traditional fine art skills.

Before Bartek entered the game industry in 2005 he worked in an advertising agency and found out this was wasn't the right profession.

Prior to CD Projekt RED he worked at People Can Fly, a Polish developer who released in February 2011 the ego shooter "Bulletstorm"on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. He spent two years at Poeple Can Fly and worked on some unpublished project, which was canceled. Then Bartek decided to join CD Projekt RED to work with real passionates on a fantastic project.

In 2011 Bartek Gawel was rewarded with the fifth place at the international "Dominance War IV" contest, an annual Game Artist Competion where (game) artists from all over the world present their best works online to become World Champions.
