Magical News! We are absolutely thrilled to announce that our incredibly talented artist, Levi Pinfold, will be illustrating the final two books in the Harry Potter Illustrated Editions series for Bloomsbury!

The project involved crafting a series of humorous, mugshot-style portraits for 24 different chicken breeds, each with its own distinct personality. Research into the breeds and collaboration with the client helped shape the characters, ensuring their traits were visually compelling and integral to the gameplay.
