Witch Academy casual 2D Halloween marketing illustration by Sunstrike

The illustration leads with the witch academy mood: thin-veil atmosphere, magic in the air, and warm hero accents over deep cool depth. Composition reserved space for headline copy and platform overlays so the same piece runs across social square, wide banner, and store hero formats without re-cropping.

Color rules favored saturated hero accents on cooler atmospheric depth, which keeps the Halloween read intact at small ad thumbnail sizes while the full image carries the mystical scene depth at hero sizes. The piece sets the brand tone for future Witch Academy creatives.

Pipeline ran rough composition, color key, paint over, and detail finishing under internal art direction. Working as the studio's 2D art outsourcing studio partner on internal IP, we kept the piece flexible for future re-use as a hero splash on the Witch Academy roadmap.

Casual painterly style with warm hero accents and atmospheric Halloween palette. Deep cool tones in the background lift the witch silhouette while accent colors carry the mystical brand language. Lighting holds shape under feed thumbnails and store carousel placement.
