Maresa Althof - Illustration and Concept Art 2024

Fire Queen Illustration

An illustration  I made during my mentorship with the amazing Iveta Kirstukaitė! I liked the idea of having a card frame on this one, inspire by the arcana splash arts in League of Legends.

Valorant Player Card Fanart

This is an illustration I made of my favourite agents in the game Valorant. My goal was to create an illustration that could be used as a player card in the game and it challenged me to figure out the art style!

Without in-game border

Valorant Gekko Fanart

I thought it was a fun little idea to imagine Gekko spending an afternoon learning how to paint with Raze and Killjoy.

Mother of the Forest

My Illustration for Envar Studio's art contest with the theme 'autumn vibes'.

The thing I love most about the season is the contrast of the warm, colorful environment and the cold temperatures, which give me a truly cozy feeling that I wanted to represent in this piece.

Spirits of the Forest

This is a personal project I worked on that contains some Character Design, Prop Design and Creature Design. It belongs into the same universe as the 'Mother of the Forest' illustration above.

Octo-Clean Erica Character Design

I had a lot of fun bringing the idea of a short woman that slams her octopus friend on spaceships, because she's too short to reach stuff to life! For this project, I was given the following brief:

'An old mine colony on one of Jupiter's moons, which is now mainly used as a gas station for large carriers and a trading center for goods of all kinds. Design a character that would fit into this environment.'

Thanks to Johannes Figlhuber for the feedback and tips on this one!

Sea of Thieves Fan Concept

This is a fan concept I made for the game Sea of Thieves! The goal was to make an environment mood concept for an island or part of an island that would fit into the game and invite the player to explore.
