Dear Volition-

I have submitted a portfolio for a 3d character design position before but never got the chance to at least try an art test. I am confident that my skills can meet your needs. My quick temp site is being redone to better show my talent, but you can access it here www.steveroyer.com

I really wish I could get a shot at this position, because I am only an hour or two from your studio right now. I am very passionate about the gaming industry and my work, even temp-to-hire would be amazing. I appreciate any comments or tests you may send my way.
