80's Music
As a first work of 2024, let's get nostalgic and create 80's or 90's inspired music themed illustration. Walkmans, tapes, headphones. What would be your choice of tape?
Hogwarts X-mas
As this is my last design of this year, I want to with you all Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. This time, letโs spend them at Gryffindor clubhouse with all the presents waiting under the tree.
Behind the Scenes: North Pole Illustration
Let the festivities begin!Towards the end of the year, I just love the let myself go with the flow and succumb to all the snowy, blinking and glittering goodness of Christmas time. Turn off the brain and let it fill with all the red and green kitch this holiday has to offer.And I always like to create at least one outdoor environment and also some indoor scene (coming right up ;). It's a refre...
North Pole
Let's go full December festive mode with the ultimate stylized North Pole workshop. Toy crafting, gifts, decorations, cozy lighting and snowy treetops. Let's have it all ๐
Star Wars: X-Wing
This week, I was in a mood to re-visit some of the Star Wars themes I did before and try to do something different with them.
Behind the Scenes: Hogwarts Express
As the fall peaks and holiday season approaches, I like to go and re-watch some of the feel-good movie or TV series. And the ultimate holiday feel good series for me is the Harry Potter series. And as the family watches the movies, a lot of times inspiration starts to flow and I start to think about how would I re-create this or that scene.This of course happened several times already so I have a ...
Hogwarts Express
Every year, we re-watch the Harry Potter series as it's tightly connected to late fall and holiday season. So let's continue by creating the environment, where it all begins each school year. The compartment in the Hogwarts Express. What do you think?
Behind The Scenes: Fall Diorama
With the spooky month behind us, I wanted to focus on something simple.As I was not in the mood to recreate anything popular, I turned again into seasonal palettes. November has it all when it comes to mood and emotion. Seasons are often my go-to pick when I feel overloaded or uninspired.But the timeline wasunforgiving again, so I needed to keep the scale of the scene as small as possible. It beca...
Witch's Brew
Let's wrap up the October and commence Halloween festivities with the creation of smaller scale diorama of the Witch's most beloved possessions. Limbs of all kind allowed.
Behind the Scenes: Spooky House Island
Oh the time flies. But we still have few days until the month of spookiness concludes, so naturally I wanted to give this few more shots. For two consecutive years now, I made some version of a haunted house in October, so it was time for the third one.I already had some style preference in mind. The first I made was low poly, last year I made a textured semi-realistic diorama and this time I want...
Spooky Island
Let's continue the spooky October theme with a traditional haunted house located on a deserted and spooky floating island.
Behind the Scenes: Halloween Lo-Fi Room
Aaah, October. Air thickens with chimney smoke in the countryside as the night temperatures drop, while during the day you catch the last warm sunlight beams of the Indian Summer. Just the perfect season. Spider webs, bats, skeletons and pumpkins. Candle light and cauldrons, cookie jars and candy.If you enjoy popular culture and themed holidays, you can easily get inspired and find a lot of creati...
Halloween Lo-Fi Room
It's that time of the year again! I hereby officially kick off the spooky October. For the rest of the month, let the bats fly, skulls shriek and pumpkins burn bright. I'll start with a cozy lo-fi inspired study room with Halloween decorations.
Behind the Scenes: Pirate Cove
Sometimes, instead of browsing through my notes and list of ideas, I get instant inspiration from a comment suggestions on Youtube or Instagram. It just connects and I have to go and make the thing. Recently someone suggested a pirate theme, and I realized I only made something like that once.Of course, that's a really wide suggestion, so I thought about different ways this might go. When I ge...
Pirate Cove
Ships, planks, barrels, skulls, flags, beaches and islands. Everything you need to create the ultimate pirate Caribbean hideout.
Behind the Scenes: Island in the Sky
An idea can hit you at anytime you're doing something. Like playing a game. You're sitting back, all chilled-out and relaxed and all of a sudden your creative part just kicks in and your rest is over.I was playing a Spyro game with my son and every time we do that, I can't just simply enjoy the game. I find myself always stopping to ponder about their hand-painted textures, the vistas ...
Sky Island
Let's leave the isometric now for a while and travel up the sky to discover surreal and fantasy worlds.
8-Bit Room
With so many good games releasing this year and so little time, can't do otherwise but dream about a simpler time. A time of a dusty 8-bits, CRTโs, silent refuge and pixelated all-nighters.
Behind the Scenes: World in the Bottle
This year on vacation, a friend bought my son a ship in the bottle souvenir. A trivial thing, but fascinating still. My son was mesmerized. As I held the thing in my hands, there's something capturing in a small environment contained in the bottle like that.Can't put my finger on it, but it inspired me nevertheless. What if the whole piece of small world was contained in there? Going on as...
Bottle World
Got excited for a ships and environment dioramas built in the bottle, so I thought I give it a digital try in Blender.
