Lion's Den Artwork
I'm Lion, a self taught artist with a passion for nature, biology, video games and character design. I believe in creating stories that are lighthearted but still meaningful through mixing fantasy with reality so we can experience other worlds through human eyes.
Be either a character that can tell its own story with a glance or a blank slate for the audience to fill in, character design gives us freedom to populate our fictional worlds with creatures unbound by real world limitations - or to fully indulge our imagination of what would other sentient creatures do in their daily lives within the reality we already know.
My goal is to use that freedom to add flavor and personality so that the characters and their enviroment feel more alive.
No enviroment is complete without it's fauna, which is why I specialize in creature design, bringing to life critters, monsters or companions. I love to explore the "what if" in speculative evolution, of what would fauna look like in different planets or different timelines.
For my work I use Krita to create concept art and design sheets, and Blender to create rigged 3D models.
