A splash illustration of an original character named Ingo Eskilden. Created for my Entertainment Design portfolio using Krita, this illustration was thumbnailed and sketched in Procreate then painted and rendered in Krita and Adobe Photoshop.
Ingo is part of the world of Eidolon Soul, a story of two brothers who were raised together in isolation by a mysterious witch of the forest. The narrative explores what it means to be family, the weight of responsibilities, and navigating sorrow to find reprieve.
Ingo, himself, is a stoic, pugnacious young adult who is obsessed with power and control. A domineering perspective with a shrouded, foggy environment was chosen for this reason. He has the ability to control creatures called "Eidolon", the looming hand is a part of an incomplete Eidolon manifestation, through the runes etched into his body.
