ART DIRECTION
Production began with a short pre-production, collecting references and organizing them in a Miro Board for relevance and style. Style tests and sketches were made, and a list of assets made to scope out the work.
I began to work on the full illustrations and character portraits while Lyndsay worked on layout and polishing sketches done during pre-production.

LAYOUT
After the artwork was complete assets were added to the rulebook and game room.
Lyndsay Schoen provided layout for the rulebook, and did a wonderful job keeping the design minimal while maintaining a fantasy feel.
Here are some of my favorite spreads from the book.
