Assassin’s Creed Valhallais the latest entry in theAssassin’s Creedfranchise and this time, players are taken into the formidable world of the Vikings. Last week,an 8-hour streamwas showcased on Twitch where artist BossLogic created some incredible art for the game. Personally, I was mesmerized by it being a huge art lover but if you didn’t have the time to sit through the entire stream, you may watch the whole thing in 3 minutes in awonderful timelapse. What we didn’t see in the trailer was thefemale versionof Eivor, only really getting a glimpse of her in theCollector’s Editionfor the game so we have an idea as to what she looks like but to give us more of an idea on how Lady Eivor could look in battle, an artist delves into this mysterious female Viking.
Concept Artist/Storyboard Artist for Film and GamesJessie Lamhas pieced together an incredible creative version of their perception ofAssassin’s Creed Valhalla’sfemale Eivor. As seen in the picture below, Jessie has done a fantastic job of showing Eivor’s deathly stare and warpainted face as she sails across a treacherous open sea, clinging onto the longboat as she prepares for battle. There also looks to be a raven perched on her shoulder and the backdrop to it all just adds to the intensity as we see a lightning infused sky giving off a wonderful purple hue. Being anAssassin’s Creedfan, Jessie also designed an outstanding piece of art of Kassandra fromAssassin’s Creed Odyssey. Here Jessie craftedKassandra in a bathhouse towelthat shows off her strong physique and rippling muscles.
Jessie previously has worked forSkybound Entertainment, Crunchyroll, Bandai Namco Studios, Electronic Arts, and recently was the cinematics storyboard artist forGears 5. If you’re a fan of Jessie’s art, you’re able to check out all her creations over on herArtstationwhere you’ll also find art fromThe Witcher, Cyberpunk,and a host of other beauties alongside concept pieces of strong and powerful women.
