Hi, I’m Kian, a freelance Illustrator and Animator, based in South Australia
Portfolio
I specialise in both character design and background design, as I love to get lost in the worldbuilding of a story. I enjoy creating fantasy and cosy characters within horror settings, as well as creating art based on various games, shows and books. My passion is creating characters and bringing them to life within 2D and 3D animations.
