I transform unusual concepts into engaging, humorous narratives!

Hey there, I am Markilus, a freelance storyteller, illustrator, and comic artist based in Switzerland. I specialise in generating wacky, humorous concepts and bringing them to life through visual art.
Most of my work exists in a fantasy world where absurd monsters and cute, cheerful creatures coexist in the most unexpected ways.
I create illustrations with personality that feel unexpected and lively. Oh, and by the way, I can also animate them.
I graduated from the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts with a Bachelor in Animation in 2019 and a Master in Design in 2021.
Since then, I have been helping clients to turn unusual ideas into memorable visual stories, whether through character worlds, narrative illustrations or comics.
If you’re looking for someone to develop unforgettable stories and ideas with humor and charm, I’d love to work with you.

Testimonials
Markilus was great to work with, really enjoyed the process to final art deliveries. Highly recommend.
Corey Johnson – Game Director
Markilus did an amazing job designing my book cover. It was a challenging request to involve so many unique characters, but he was able to take my original idea and make it so much more visually aesthetic.
Dean Dsouza – Writer
Markilus is an amazing artist who will make sure everything is to your liking. He answers and works fast as well. I was very happy with his work and would definitely recommend him!
