Delfinn Ilhan

For Project Inquiries and Contact:

Hi! I’m Delfin Ilhan, a game artist and illustrator based in Istanbul with a deep love for storytelling, world-building, and all things fantastical.

I served as the president of my university’s Sci-Fi & Fantasy Club, where I organized creative events, murder mystery games, cosplay activities, and even designed original board games with our team. This experience reflects my passion for collaboration and immersive, narrative-driven experiences — whether through visuals or gameplay.

My art is inspired by the whimsical darkness of creators like Tim Burton, blending gothic charm with playful design. I enjoy working in both cartoonish and dark fantasy styles, and thanks to my animation training, I’m adaptable across many genres.

I’ve contributed to indie games like Sleepy Heroes (Steam), co-developed tabletop and visual novel projects, and participated in multiple game jams — where I helped bring concepts to life through illustrations, UI, storyboards, and narrative design.

I’m always excited to bring strange creatures, emotional stories, and magical worlds to life. Let’s create something unforgettable together.
