Finsterwald Cover And Artwork

I am currently working with our team on a game project called Finsterwald. I was in charge to design the cover and some artwork.
Programs used were Photoshop, Krita and Inkscape.

"FINSTERWALD (Dark Forest) is a chilling first person horror adventure VR/3D game, set in the deepest, darkest forest in Germany featuring the Ancient Guardian of Forest, the Waldschrat, as the main protagonist.

The Waldschrat is the ancient and feared guardian of the forest. A vigilante, who watches over all the plants, trees and animals in their natural habitat, the Waldschrat does not welcome visitors who threaten the delicate balance of nature in this sacred grove.

It is the territory of nature and nature alone, and it is the Waldschrat's fundamental purpose to keep it that way.

However, the modern world is beginning to encroach on the forest territory, and the rules are changing. Travellers and careless wayfarers are accessing the forest more freely and are slowly destroying this beautiful, untamed land.

As the tales of old begin to fade, respect from humans is lessening and their behaviour results in the Waldschrat teaching them a lesson.

Humans have no way to tame the ancient power of the Waldschrat, still hidden in the heart of the forest…unless one wayfarer can find that way.

Familiarise yourself amongst the Germanic fables of old and find a way to survive in the most ancient, deepest, darkest forest known to man. Your nemesis is the Waldschrat, but will this creature be your friend or foe? Is it a kind, God-like protector of nature or a terrifying and deadly evil spirit?

It is time for you to find out..."
