Hollow Knight Master Grimm Botticelli Painting Parody Art
Today, I made a new Hollow Knight painting art parody. The painting that I chose to parody is the Virgin and Child with Eight Angels by Botticelli. Botticelli is famous for his Greek paintings, but the bulk of his work were Catholic paintings. When I saw this painting, something clicked inside of me. I saw the laurel flowers and the combination of characters. They all seemed ripe for parody. Taking the place of the Virgin Mary, I have Master Grimm. He too had an immaculate conception of his Grimmchild. Surrounding Master Grimm are his eight “angels” or Grimmkin. In the...
Hollow Knight The Swing Painting Parody
Today, I was in the mood to do another painting parody. I made a parody of The Swing or The Happy Accidents by Jean Honore Fragonard. He was a Rococo painter. Rococo was all about humor, beauty and silliness. It was meant to contrast the seriousness of the Baroque period. In my version, the Pale Lady is playing in the Swing. A Mantis Traitor is Pushing the Swing for her. I added little shoes to her tentacle legs. I did that in order to have her lose one of her shoes, in order to better parody the painting. In the...
Hollow Knight Animal Crossing Parody
Today, I got around to finishing my new Hollow Knight parody. It features a crossover with Animal Crossing. The Collector went to the Animal Crossing Museum to show Blathers his latest catch. The problem is that Blathers is afraid of bugs. The Collector is quite enthusiastic about his collection, so he is just shoving that Grub right into Blathers’s face. There is a bug preserve in the Animal Crossing Museum. I feel that the Collector would thrive in the Animal Crossing world. Most of the things that you do there is collect stuff. In his back, the Collector is carrying...
Hollow Knight Mario Kart Game Parody
Today, I did a Hollow Knight Mario Kart parody. I swapped out all the Mario characters for Hollow Knight bugs. In the foreground, I have the Pale King. He has the only kart with chainsaws. As the King, he is a bit of a cheater. He always has to be number one, no matter the cost. For his princes, he gave them karts that have normal wheels. This makes it easier for him to ruin the carts of anyone that dares to approach him. He is the type of King that wants to rule forever, no cost too great. ...
Hollow Knight Bug with a Pearl Earring Painting Parody
Today, I was in the mood to make a painting parody, using Hollow Knight characters. I chose an easily recognizable painting: The Girl with a Pearl Earring by Jan Vermeer. Hornet seemed like the perfect character to embody this maiden. Both have a certain fragility about them, but also a source of inner strength. It was interesting reworking the turban for her horns. I figured that it would coil around both horns, instead of making it a solid piece. The final thing was adding the shine of the fabrics and the earring. I had to match the shading of...
