Many different things have inspired various elements of Blinding Veil, but here are the things that inspire the world as a whole.
Concept Art/Digital Paintings
I couldn't describe the exact feeling I get from looking at concept art and digital artwork, but something about it just gets my imagination going. Whenever I think of Blinding Veil, I tend to imagine it in this kind of style visually. Whenever I commission artwork for Blinding Veil, I try to go for this kind of style since I have a hard time thinking of it any other way.
Magic the Gathering Artwork
I played this game a lot in middle school and recently got back into it. One thing that always stuck with me throughout those times when thinking about the game was the card art. In fact, even when I wasn't playing the game at all, I still occasionally found myself going through my collection just looking at the artwork. I guess it goes in hand with my previous point since I've noticed a lot of older cards just don't look appealing to me, which I attribute to the art.
Grand Landscapes
I know that sounds kind of generic, but it's still something that is always in my mind when I think of Blinding Veil. Nature, if a little scary at times, is quite beautiful and inspiring.
