About

Hi, I’m Doug Will, a digital artist and game developer focused on creating engaging thumbnails, illustrations, and game-ready assets. I enjoy turning ideas into visuals that communicate a clear mood and story, whether it’s for YouTube thumbnails, social content, or in-game scenes.

I’ve worked as a serious history thumbnail artist and also as a game developer using tools like Godot and Blender. My workflow blends digital painting and design in Photoshop/Clip Studio Paint with 3D work in Blender, so I can produce consistent, polished results across different formats and pipelines.
