I wanted to make the ruins of a french gothic cathedral that showed a battle with a great monster. My main inspiration was the capital city Leyndell from Elden Ring, specifically how the dragon corpse that caused its destruction was still in the city. For architecture I was inspired by the ruins of the Whitby Abbey and the Coventry Cathedral, as well as architectural drawings of Notre Dame. I also looked at many of the church ruins that are in Elden Ring like the Cathedral of Manus Celes.
For the spider monster I was inspired by the concept art for Nerscylla from monster hunter but I wanted to make it more of an accurate spider.
