3D Illustration for Halloween

This was my first brand commission that came through a platform I was already part of—and loved. Ko-fi reached out to me for a special Halloween post for their Instagram, and I was given full creative freedom. I wanted to create something that reflected their mission to support creatives and keep it fun and on theme.


My first idea was to highlight the Ko-fi logo by building a whimsical studio inside the iconic Ko-fi cup. But considering the scale and impact of a single still image on Instagram, I shifted focus. I imagined an interior scene instead. A cozy, creative studio where various paranormal characters were engaged in playful, artistic activities.

I kept the modeling simple, focusing on texturing and lighting. I alternate between vertex painting and texture painting with the help of Deep Paint to bring out that 2D, hand-painted look.

The result was a dreamy, playful space with just enough Halloween magic and a strong sense of community at its core. I call it

'Ko-Fi's Creative Space for the Paranormal'.
