I’ve always felt like in between two worlds. Fantasy and Sci-Fi, traditional and digital. I like to bring that sense of classic cover art in my work, while trying to revisit it for new audiences. I usually sculpt more than I paint my illustrations, always going from 3D to 2D. I like to blur the lines and that’s what makes my work so unique and identifiable
Pascal Blanché is a digital illustrator and sci-fi concept artist based in Montreal, Canada. Blanché is known across digital art communities for his hyper realistic depictions of unknown worlds which seamlessly blur the boundaries between fantasy and sci-fi worlds. His 3D renderings are extremely rich in detail, color and story.
Blanché got his start in the arts early on, experimenting across mediums including photography, painting, and sculpture. He was eventually introduced to the Amiga animation software and his passion for digital art quickly followed. Blanche is highly influenced by sci-fi and fantasy art, naming Star Wars as one of his earliest inspirations. He was also extremely fascinated by all things stop motion and comic book culture. Later inspirations include artworks from 80’s cover artists , like Frank Frazetta and Chris Foss, who have played a crucial role in shaping his aesthetic sense of composition and colors.
Blanché’s artwork was named as a Zbrush Top Row Post of the year 2019 and he has received multiple awards from CGHub, CGTalk, and Artstation. His artworks have been exhibited in the Danese Corey Gallery’s LINE AND FRAME A Survey of European Comic Art, spotlighted on the cover for Heavymetal magazine, and sold as high end physical collectibles by the House of GOG.
Pascal Blanche’s debut Drop on MakersPlace in January was met with great excitement from the community and resulted in a quick sell out. His 1/1 artworks have sold for up to 20.75 ETH (~$73,367.64).

IMMORTALS
IMMORTALS is about the never ending cycle of generations. In this collection, Blanche approaches this universal theme, inspired by the battles of the new gods against the old Titans- Each generation at the peak of its youth, feeling immortal and invincible. Through IMMORTALS, Blanche also explores the never ending fight against dated conventions, old systems that can never evolve but don’t want to step down either.
For this collection, Blanche continues experimentations around a cover retro look, with bright colors and Halftone Patterns. He draws inspiration from the comic books of the 80’s, the fantasy cover art of the 70’s, and artists like Frazetta, Corben, Bisley, and Moebius. Using modern digital tools like Zbrush, Keyshot, and Photoshop, Blanche blends the 3D and 2D disciplines into a whole new and unique style.
