The Eternal Ruins are an endless labyrinth of ancient mysteries. Children awaken from strange statues and become Wanderers of the ruins.

「神の在不在はさておき、これだけでも大したものですね」
「俺の村では祈りの場そのものも信仰対象だった。神様の姿を知る人間は限られていたし、実際信仰に足る代物だった」
「確かにあれは神の御業といった感じでしたね」
「だからみんな死んだ」
which, google translated, comes out as:
church in ruins
“Aside from the existence or absence of God, this alone is a big deal.”
"In my village, the place of prayer itself was an object of worship. There were only a limited number of people who knew the appearance of God, so it was actually something worthy of belief."
“It certainly felt like the work of God.”
"That's why everyone died."

Participant of the CGTrader Digital Art Competition. https://www.cgtrader.com/
An older painting massively reworked. As always when doing personal projects, I drew inspiration from real places that I visited.
This idea came to me long time ago, during visit of a rather famous medieval town in Czech. Sometimes things you see just stick with you and won't let you sleep until you make something out of them. This was the case.
From the very beginning I wanted to have this calm, meditative, approaching a safe sanctuary feeling. For that reason I chose the central composition that appears symmetric at first but is actually far from it. Both sides are balanced with different shapes making the image stable yet not boring. Choice of lightning and colors was also made with the same purpose in mind

Yet another personal project that I've just finished. Really enjoyed working on this one. Definitely a fun little challenge!
yes, it is another 3d model; but it's the last one for a while i promise. here are some detail views

This is a challenge that I did with some friends in the discord of adapting the tale "The Masque of the Red Death" by Edgar Allan Poe. I imagined the characters as part of a cult that worships the Mask of the Red Death and performs rituals through the rooms with different colors from the abbey, each representing a different stage of life.

I had a chance to work with ExNi Games on their new pc game project. I love the world they created and did some concepts for them.
i think this game has been quietly cancelled unfortunately. the concept art looked really good
