The Spirit Blade was saved from a dark ritual by an expert swordsman, who adopted and trained him on their journey.

When his teacher passed, their soul remained in the steel that the Spirit Blade wields.

We didn't want only humanoids, and we feel there is a strong story to tell with this one ❤️🐾

A concept art sheet for a hero in the game Power Well called the Spirit Blade. Depicts several iterative designs of the hero body and silhouette. The Spirit Blade is depicted as a large dog with the face of a demon. It holds a large katana in its mouth, and as it swings that blade a ghostly figure wearing robes emerges above the steel. The Spirit Blade's collar has a shoulder pad hanging off one side, and a bottle of sake hanging from the other.

Once we had figured out what the Puppetmaster and puppet should look like, we then had to find her color.

We wanted to give her powerful witch/wiccan vibes with some fun flair. We left a nice "Oz" shoutout and kept to Power Well's signature CMYK style.

#Promo #Art #Illustration #Fantasy #Boardgame

A concept art sheet for a hero in the game Power Well called the Puppetmaster. Depicts the final design for the Puppetmaster and her puppet. The Puppetmaster is depicted as a beautiful woman wearing an elizabethan gown. Her face is mostly covered by a spinning wheel adornment, with only her smile visible. The skirt of her dress is a dark gray with red crosswork on it. She wears tall stockings that are wrapped with Cyan and Yellow ribbon down to her Magenta-red slippers. The puppet is roughly 2-3x the size of the Puppetmaster who rides atop it, controlling it with magical strings. The puppet has the appearance of a gigantic spool of thread, with large arms protruding from the sides. It's face has a gigantic, opened safety pin that serves as its pincers. It has splashes of Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow through it's threads.

The Puppetmaster's puppet went through several iterations. We started with more of a patchwork marionette, but felt that wasn't doing justice to the over-the-top design style we were maintaining elsewhere.

We pivoted to a gigantic, spooled beast.

The Puppetmaster was probably the most difficult hero to concept. We wanted her to feel powerful, and we needed her puppet to be imposing.

In designing her we were essentially designing two separate heroes that would play symbiotically.

The Drauth, lovingly referred to as "Bone Guy" in the Discord, is a master of death and decay, freezing abilities and leaving an army of skeletons in his wake.

We had a very clear vision for Drauth, so it only took a few concept passes before we got there.

An artistic from humble beginnings, the Painter stores power from the Power Well on his palette and later splashes his vision of a better future onto the world.

Bright CMYK colors are thematic for Power Well, so we wanted a hero that leans into that.

The Painter is a human that wears long purple robes, with a yellow paint-stained apron. He is an old man with medium length brown hair and a long, braided gray beard. He adorns a large leather shoulder pad with loops holding small tubes of paint. He has a large, folding painter's palette attached to his right arm, and wields a paint brush staff that is roughly as tall as he is in his left hand. He casts colorful magic off of his palette through his brush staff.
