Check out the magical realm brought to life by the Design Neko gang! A fantasy game universe where wizards cast spells, dragons breathe fire, and… our team of creative cats made it purr-fectly epic.
About the Brief
When we collaborated with Mike...
He wanted to build a game world that was rich, immersive, and full of fantasy wonder. Characters that looked like they belonged in ancient prophecies, monsters that sent chills down your whiskers, and environments you could get lost in.
Our task? Create a full set of fantasy art illustrations - from heroes and magical creatures to enchanted objects and eerie landscapes.
How We Worked Our Magic
Style Meowgic
We chose a semi-realistic style with rich colors and bold strokes - perfect for fantasy storytelling.
World-Building Whiskers
Every character and element was rooted in Mike’s lore. We created moodboards and story-tied sketches to stay on-track.
Character Purr-sonality
From the grumpy Goblin King to majestic heroes, we made sure every figure had backstory & attitude.
Meow-ssive Detailing
Zoom in and you’ll find runes, fur textures, and dragon scales all painted with care. No lazy catnaps here.
Iteration Like a Curious Cat
We worked closely with Mike through revisions - paw by paw - until each character was game-ready.
Game-Ready Output
High-res layered files, transparent backgrounds, organized folders. All wrapped up and ready to play.
Client Feedback:
“Brilliant, Creative and Consistent
I have worked with this amazing company and they have brought the art for my board game to life in brilliant, creative ways! In the future I will continue to work with them for all my art needs because I know I can count on them for consistent, quality work!”

Style, Tips & Meow-thoughts
Design Tip #1
Keep a consistent color palette across characters to visually unify the world.
Style Note
We used cooler tones for villains and warm glows for allies - classic contrast magic.
From The Team
We had a blast illustrating this universe. Drawing wizards before breakfast? Just another day at Design Neko. 🙂
