The Hollow Knight The Kiss Gustav Klimt Fanart
Today, I got around to making a new Hollow Knight fanart. In this one, I am referencing the Gustav Klimt painting the Kiss. It wasn’t common for artworks to feature folks kissing. Kisses belonged to the realm of intimacy. It wasn’t something that was considered proper for a painter to paint. Klimt worked during a time when the Salon was repressing all types of new art. Painters either painted like the old masters, or their work wasn’t featured in the Salon. IF your work wasn’t featured in the Salon, you didn’t sell. Klimt’s financial situation gave him the freedom to...
Hollow Knight Van Eyck Arnolfini Portrait Fanart
Today, I made a new Hollow Knight fanart. After looking through a bunch of famous paintings, I decided to do a reference to a famous Van Eyck Painting called the Arnolfini Portrait or Wedding. This painting is famous because of all the small details in the portrait. The original shows a couple in their bedchamber. They are about to consummate their union. Both are barefooted as shown by the shoes scattered about the bedroom. The wife is in the process of raising her skirt, to show her willingness to reproduce with her husband. There is a mirror in the middle...
Hollow Knight Bugs Playing Poker Painting Parody
Today, I got around to making my new Hollow Knight parody. This one took a little longer to make because I had a lot of characters to work with. I was making a parody of a painting called A Friend in Need, 1903. This painting was made by Cassius Marcellus Coolidge. Coolidge did an entire painting series of Dogs playing poker. From all his poker dog paintings, I chose the one I liked best for my Hollow Knight parody. Aside from poker, Coolidge has his dogs playing pool and other betting games. In my version, I had the Hollow Knight...
Game Reviews: Just Cause 3, The Witcher 3, Kingdom Hearts DDD
Just Cause 3 Game Review Just Cause 3 was a pretty decent game. It is a real pity that the game was so short. The cities were larger, but there were a lot fewer places to visit. Frankly, the game was a lot larger in the second part. Something that I hated about the game was the loading screen. It took forever to get nowhere. The game also explained a bit about Rico’s origin. His family was killed by the president of his home country. I think it takes place in Italy or something like it. The bases were pretty...
Game Reviews: Dragon Age 2, Divinity 2, Kingdom of Amalur, Tropico 5
Dragon Age 2 Game Review Dragon Age 2 was not the best of the lot; still it was plenty of fun. The game was about a dwarf named Varrick. He had a friend he wanted to protect named Hawk. Since he was being interrogated, he created a story based a little on the truth. Anyhow, the game is about Varrick’s farfetched tale of the champion of Kirkwall. All that occurs in the game is irrelevant since, Varrick was making most of it up. It becomes more certain in Dragon Age Inquisition when Cassandra finally meets Hawk. Well, that is beside...
