A personal illustration series inspired by the Warcraft universe (Blizzard Entertainment).
Created through a hybrid production pipeline combining traditional sketching, AI‑assisted exploration, manual artistic refinement, photobashing, color grading, and final rendering. The goal of the project is to capture the dramatic, atmospheric, Blizzard‑style cinematic energy of iconic Warcraft moments
1. Illidan — Fel Ascension in the Tomb of Sargeras
Created through a hybrid production pipeline: sketch → AI‑assisted exploration → artistic refinement → photobashing → color grading → final rendering. This piece captures the pivotal moment of Illidan Stormrage’s first demonic awakening — the instant when fel energy surges through him for the very first time. Still wearing his Night Elf garments and not yet transformed into the Demon Hunter we know, Illidan is overwhelmed by raw fel power: embryonic wings forming behind his back, arcane tattoos igniting, and fel lightning erupting around him. The scene focuses on the chaos, pain, and transcendence of this transformation, exploring Blizzard‑style lighting, fel magic effects, and the dramatic contrast between Night Elf identity and demonic corruption
2. Rexxar & Misha — Mok'Nathal Fury
Created through a hybrid production pipeline combining traditional sketching, AI‑assisted exploration, manual artistic refinement, photobashing, color grading, and final rendering. This piece focuses on Rexxar, Champion of the Horde, and his loyal companion Misha — captured in a dramatic, cinematic moment of battle. The goal of the artwork is to explore Blizzard‑style lighting, heroic composition, and the raw, primal energy of Mok'Nathal warriors
3. Kel’Thuzad — Rise of the Archlich
Developed through a hybrid workflow combining traditional sketching, AI‑assisted exploration, manual artistic refinement, photobashing, and final color grading.
The illustration depicts Kel’Thuzad in full ascension — suspended above the ruins, unleashing torrents of necromantic power as a swarm of ghouls rises and surges forward under his command
4. Ashenvale Ambush — First Infernal Falls
Developed through a hybrid workflow combining traditional sketching, AI exploration, manual refinement, photobashing, and final color grading. The illustration depicts a lone infernal crashing into the forest, scattering embers across the ground, while two Night Elf archers silently draw their bows from the treetops — an ambush set in the heartbeat before the forest erupts into war.
5. Night Elf Last Stand — Infernal Descent
Created through a hybrid production pipeline: sketch → AI‑assisted exploration → artistic refinement → photobashing → color grading → final rendering. This piece portrays the last surviving Night Elf Sentinel standing on a corpse‑strewn battlefield as the Burning Legion descends. Towering infernals emerge through fire and smoke, darkening the sky with their arrival, while fallen Sentinels lie scattered across the ground — capturing a cinematic moment of despair, defiance, and the overwhelming force of the Legion
