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...
The Hollow Knight Baki Parody Ant can carry 40 Times his Own Weight
This is my latest Hollow Knight parody. I was looking at random things for inspiration. It was then when I saw a manga panel from Baki. It featured Oliva carrying his wife about. I decided to do a similar scene with the Pale King and the White Lady. The Pale King is carrying his wife to the Royal Bedchambers, while his retainers bowl in awe. I only added four retainers in order not to steal focus. The design of the White Lady is a little different. It is a combination of her look in the Queen’s Garden, and her early...
The Hollow Knight the Beatles Abbey Road Drawing Parody
I was brainstorming a new Hollow Knight parody. Normally, I like to mix them with artworks. While browsing at art, I came up with this idea, instead. It was such an obvious parallel that it is brilliant. I referenced the Beatles with Hollow Knight characters. I chose the Nailmasters and the Nailsage as stand ins for the Beatles. They are in the City of Tears crossing the road. I added notations to the lineart to remember which lines are white and which ones are black. One of the nailmasters is without his shoes. He is almost smoking. I...
Hollow Knight Bugtanic Titanic Parody Drawing Fanart
Today, I did a Hollow Knight x Titanic parody. I had the Pale King and the White lady taking the role of Jack and Rose. Their Bugtanic ship crashed in Greenpath. Due to his arrogance, the Pale King didn’t add any life rafts. He assumed that his Bugtanic ship was unsinkable. When his ship sank, only the floating door was able to save him and his wife. As gamers might remember, Greenpath is covered in acid. The White Lady is on top of the wooden door that is barely containing her massive weight. There is simply not room enough...
Hollow Knight Mantis Lords x Judgement of Paris Art Parody
Today, I felt like doing a new Hollow Knight Art Parody. After looking at a bunch of paintings, I settled on a funny theme. The Judgement of Paris is based on a mythological story. The Goddess of Discord wasn’t invited to a wedding. Since she was angry at being left out, she thought of a way to kill all the joy of that event. She threw a Golden Apple into the middle of the banquet. The Golden Apple had these words: For the Fairest One. In modern terms, this line means that the Golden Apple goes to the prettiest one....
