Araneae means an order of arachnids; the spiders. I’ve had this image stuck in my mind for a while. Inspired by old book cover illustrations. >> Instagram

Sry, I have to repost these again because of x and y. :)

The upper pic is my version of the Baykok - a hostile spirit raised from the blood-painted bones of a warrior. He was the first encounter in our rpg campaign a while ago.

The second image is a portrait of a harpy. It’s also a close-up of a bigger painting that I’m currently working on. It requires quite a lot of work so let’s see if I can make it!

Quick creature design between other projects. I couldn’t decide whether the dark or light background worked better so here’s both of them!

A portrait of my character in the World of Darkness. She is Zoé Durand, pianist, vampire, undead, clan member of the Caitiff. ❤

The spider. Another game project that we did last year - Firebound.

This time I was a character artist. My first time being one and also the first time animating a 3D character/creature ^^ the whole project was intensive but really rewarding! I also made the main character, a bounty hunter, who is on a mission to save an island from these evil spider creatures. //edit: the gifs were too big so i will post them later to work properly! ops :x

The Marie Parable is a game demo - a five week school project from last year.

The assignment was to come up with an already existing game and make our own version of it. Our team chose The Stanley Parable!

The goal was to capture the feeling of the original game but make our own world, levels, story and endings. So instead of an office, we made a hospital etc. The basic idea is that once Marie starts to walk along the corridors, she notices the building is devoid of people. A mystery.

I was the only artist in a team of three >> I was in charge of all of the visuals: concepts, 3D models, materials, lighting, level design and UI. I got to do a lot of world building together with the narrative lead - and after that arrange everything together in Unity. Because of the huge map size, we chose to go with low poly visual style :)

Something I did during my last holiday ^^ I have tons of stuff that i haven’t uploaded here! Expect to see an art dump soon

[veerahokkanen]

Lately I’ve slowly started to use Instagram more than tumblr for my art stuff - Let me know if you are there! >>  www.instagram.com/veera.hokkanen/

Something that I did a while ago

[veerahokkanen]

Wip - I'm trying to model/sculpt a character in 3D and this is his eye. A bit creepy? 

[veerahokkanen]

New stuff!

[veerahokkanen]

21/365 - actually started this already last week but finally finalized it today~

[veerahokkanen]

Daily sketches 17-20, random black and white stuff from imagination. :>

[veerahokkanen]

Days 15 and 16 - portrait studies

[veerahokkanen]

Days 12, 13 and 14 - just testing ideas. At first I made the basic dude, the next day I wanted to add a coat and then weapons and etc.. So yeah, there is paint and photos and everything mixed up if you are wondering. Probably the sketch-a-day challenge is to draw different things every day and not combine them like this but I guess the main point is just doing. A lot. right? Part of my time goes to learning 3D as well

I’ve been doing this for 2 weeks now and my motivation is only growing. Already thinking about the next character and things I want to try

[veerahokkanen]

Days 10 and 11, dog sketches

[veerahokkanen]

Sketch-a-Day: days 7,8 and 9. I had previously made thumbnails before I started these. They are a bit rough but I like the middle one.
