Between Jan '22 and Aug '23, I teamed up with my friend Mike to create and animate 248 unique, hand-drawn and digitally painted isometric dioramas for a collection of digital artworks centered around a fictional place called Lyke Island.
What started as a creative side-experiment quickly grew into a full-scale world-building project – an intricate series of miniature environments that blend storytelling, pop culture, humour, and gamified collecting mechanics. The project resonated far beyond what we expected, cultivating a passionate community of thousands of collectors! A reminder that the tiniest spark can ignite entire worlds!
