The Artist's Journey - The Making of CALX's Keyart 🎨

CALX is a game that wears its references on its sleeve.

Moebius, Druillet, and many other artists were analyzed and taken into consideration to inform the art direction of the game.

Many internationally renowned artists began their careers small and local, self-publishing their work on fanzines and showcasing it at local events.

That’s where our soul resides.

For this reason exactly, we wanted to work with someone who perfectly embodies our artistic values:

Artyom Trakhanov, known on socials as @ohotnig.

With clear inspirations from artists such as Hugo Pratt and Mike Mignola, who were crucial inspirations for us, his style, previous work, and attitude were just a perfect fit for the project.

We hope to work with Artyom again soon, and remember to support your local art scene!
