"Working with Athena was a true pleasure. Their team of artists were true professionals, delivering high quality work with expediency and creativity. Communication and feedback was always prompt and well received. We had weekly syncs that encouraged a good working relationship, and they were always well attended. Would not hesitate to work with them again, and they have my highest recommendation."

Richard, Lead Concept Artist, Ubisoft

Character & Creature Design

Character design is about more than just creating cool images - it's about crafting personalities, backstories, and emotions that resonate with players or viewers. Is your character a hero, a villain, or something in between? Are they part of a faction, or are they an important NPC?

We consider every detail from personality to history, motivations, and more. You bring the brief, the inspiration, and the creative boundaries; we’ll take it from there, delivering designs that excite your team and captivate your audience, all while staying true to your art direction.
