Creating physical worlds in the dark fantasy setting is one of my favorite projects to work on, and daydream about too… So much good can come to our imaginations and creative intuitions during and after creating a detailed little world. We start to build little narratives in our heads. Like, what happened in this town or woodland scene? What characters dwell within? Are there villains and who are the heroes? But where to begin? In this video tutorial, we follow Prominus IV in his creative process.
