Playing some CRPGs lately, so my inner geek is manifesting this week with a magical underground dungeon passage. What do you think? Should I add some minis and dice?

How could you not love the guitar hero moment from the Stranger Things 4 finale right? Performing the Master of Puppets on the gnarliest metal stage ever. I know Ozzy could probably eat those bats, but still...

If you read my articles, you already know I maintain a list of things to do for years. If you don't, let me clarify. I made it a habit to keep a list of things I want to create and slowly built it into a subconscious method. If I see or get an idea, I immediately write it down. This can be sudden thing while hanging out with friends, or a suggestion in the YouTube comment ...
This is the kind of place I would like to build to defend myself from the hordes of zombies, or mutants in a fallout. Wind powered water pump and trailer converted to guard post. What about you?

Time for another character design. I don't primarily create characters, but ever since I was creating environments and dioramas, some of them were just screaming for some life. So I set myself to create a different styles of 3d people to fit my designs.
At first, I established a low poly aesthetics, so I can easily plug them into any low poly diorama. Then I spent s...
Working on a little bit more stylized character. Less cartoonish and more geometric. And of course the man's four wheeled best friend. What do you think?

When your hands start to stick to your desk and you get auto-replies to half of your emails, you know it's Summer! You could also look out the window, but who does that?
As you maybe already know from my previous stories, I like to do seasonal stuff. It's an opportunity to be part of the moment without leaving the work. Of course, it doesnt' replace the vacation, bu...
Season of out of office replies is starting to creep in accompanied by appropriate weather, so I thought I'll try to lighten up your feed with some Summer theme. What do you think?

Another one from TV show, this time the fourth season of Stranger Things. I loved Stranger Things from the start, they just made so many things right. Time setting with appropriate culture, D&D and music, that's just enough to click with me. Put a solid story on top and I'm hooked in.
I don't want to spoil your experience, but I'll say season 4 surprised me in t...
I was looking forward for Season 4 Stranger Things not having any grand expectations, but I have to say, it really knocked my socks off. It managed to bring more scary and dark elements and connected the full story arc. Can't wait for July 1. What about you?

Obi-Wan Kenobi show on Disney+ finally arrived and I had the pleasure of watching first two episodes. I won't go into details of the show, I love the fact that shows like this get made and overall I really like it.
So obviously I wanted to create a fanart, capturing some favorite moment from the show. After watching really carefully, I knew I wanted to make the Daiy...
I like the new Star Wars Kenobi series. There are some things that maybe might have been done better, but overall I really enjoyed it. Here's the Grand Inquisitor (more inspired by Rebels show) on the planet Daiyu. Did you like the cyberpunk vibe of the place?

Looking at a finished illustration, it's pretty easy to see how it was made and how to replicate it. But how did it came to life in the first place, that's a bit harder. I get a lot of inquiries about this. How do I block out the scene? And how do I know which block-out makes a good composition?
And it's not easy to answer this. Because at the end of the day, you ne...
After a steampunk and fantasy themed houses, I wanted to go back to my bread and butter and create more detailed, semi-realistic cyberpunk building. Substance textures, interior, perspective, whole nine yards. What would you like to see next?

Star Wars is a never ending source of interesting scenes and pieces of inspiration. Every movie, every TV show episode offers a wide range of different planets, environments and iconic moments.
I can't wait for the new TV show Kenobi and while waiting, I thought about his character and most iconic places. My first contact with him was in the very first SW movie - A ...
Can't wait for the Kenobi show to start, so here's a little tribute from another time. Some might say it was the elegant movie for a more civilized age :)

With this week's project, there is not much to talk about in terms of inspiration. After all, it's a part of the Hogwarts interior series I started recently. So there is plenty of inspiration available already.
But I still get a lot of questions about how I approach scene like this. Some of you tried to recreate iconic scenes from the movies and failed. And from wha...
Let's continue the Harry Potter Hogwarts series with the Defense Against The Dark Arts classroom. What year of defense class was your favorite?

Recently I realized, I'm making that much of low poly flat shaded illustrations. As I invested more and more time into my weekly designs, works got more detailed, more complicated and time consuming. I love the results, but sometimes I need a bit faster workflow, or simply I miss the look of flat shading.
It's a bit different and when lit correctly, it can provide a...
With the new season of Better Call Saul coming out, I wanted to go back a bit to the underground lab from the original Breaking Bad show. Is there any movie or TV show I haven't done yet and I definitely should? Let me know :)
