Genshin Impact fanart contest 2022: 3rd place
Video game has always been a part of my life. For me, it’s not only an entertainment but something that really brings people closer to each other. After playing and exploring various types of games, I have grown a great interest in video game art, especially environmental art.
I have worked as an urban designer for years, which helped me develop a good sense of both natural and urban landscapes. And through self-education, I have developed skills for drawing and basic 3D modelling.

01 THE WORLD
A small project of a fantasy world with various landscapes.
The following few pages present the concept of the major areas in this world setting, with one of them focused particularly on 3D modelling and rendering.
‘‘All is derived from the Blue Tree.’’
World map
General map that shows the different regions in The World.
Area impression
Quick sketches of landscapes and landmarks of each region.
Surrounded and pointing it is the

The blue into an glow
Blue Forest
swampy area absorbs the energy from the world tree, turning parts of the vegetation an unique blue colortone. Some of them even in the dark.
Central Island
Surrounded by mountains, the island is peaceful well-protected. A cliff with peculiar shape is pointing towards the Blue Tree. Legend has it that the sacred place for ancient worship.
The Chasm
Formed by an earthquake centuries ago, the once-upon lake area was cracked into pieces. There are hundreds of waterfalls that pour deeply into the underground.
Misty Lake
Vegetation in this area is rarely green due to the lack of sunlight. Apparently a mysterious gem is keeping the clouds around. It is so powerful that even the heavy rocks are pulled upwards.
The Archipelago
No one knows how or when those tooth-like rock structure were formed. Or maybe they are indeed some kind of teeth of a creature...?
The Ridges
It is not recommended to explore the area without a guide. Those who tried to travel beyond always gave up in the end, saying that it feels like they’re constantly being watched by something.
Focus: Cave
On the Central Island, there are numerous caves hidden in the mountains. Each tells a secret of the history of the land.
Focus: Blue Forest
There are some unique vegetations that grow only in the Blue Forest. Since the place locates in close vicinity to the world tree, it receives the excess energy coming from the deep roots of the world tree.
Certain types of ruins and artifacts have been discovered in this area, indicating the existence of an ancient tribe.
THE INDUSTRIAL CITY
A cityscape that blends in both traditional and hitech industries.
When natural resources were finally depleted, human have managed to produce all they need to survive artificially.
The traditional heavy industrial areas start to merge in new technology, taking over food, medicine, and all the essential production, becoming the root of every nation.
Focus: The Alley
Even the most traditional urban district is gradually being taken over by technologies.
Man’s best friend
Since live animals have become extremely rare, most people that want pets have turned to the alternative.
03 Forest Camping site
A rendering project that explores new landscape structures that could be implemented in the Swedish forest.
