I made
something else a while back that had the opening "Hollow Knight doodles". But I spent three and a half hours on it, so I don't know why I added "doodles" into that title. I wanted to continue the tradition although thankfully this didn't take me three hours.
When I was almost done with this picture, my laptop froze and I had to restart it. The last time I had saved it was when I had just started working on the last character's lines, and I was almost done with the coloring. This is far from the first time it's happened; my laptop does it all the time. That was yesterday. I was so frustrated and exhausted that I decided to go do something else, and figured I would probably never get to finishing this picture. But I did! And that's why it shows two drawing sessions.
Anyway, after two only partially related paragraphs, these are a few OCs of mine. I have more, but I either didn't remember their designs or didn't have enough room to add them in. Granted, I did have my sketchbook right next to me, and I easily could have moved the lines, but
shh I was lazy. I'll introduce the characters in the order I drew them.
None of these characters are developed at all, I just enjoy drawing them and that's their primary reason for existence :'))
- The luna moth in the bottom left is the most recent one I designed. I wanted to design my sister as a Hollow Knight character, so I did! The paint is inspired by her love of dying hair and spray paint. Before this, I gave her a
picture of something she hears from me a lot :)
(excuse the messy lines on that one, and the bad handwriting; I am actually taller than her in real life, though the picture really doesn't show it because I don't know proportions)
I've never tried to design a moth in Hollow Knight's style, so I wasn't really sure how to make the wings look right, but I like it.
- The wasp in the top left is Abispa, the first HK OC I made. I tried to make her wings look like they're in motion. I'm still not sure how to color her...
- The little bean in the top middle is unnamed. I have no idea who or what they are. I just doodled them one day and immediately claimed them as my child. Now that I think about it, they look a little like a Primal Aspid...
- If I told you that one of the characters here is supposed to be
me as a Hollow Knight character, given multiple traits of my personality you'd probably think it was the "ant" in the bottom middle. You'd be wrong, but it is a reasonable assumption. She's wearing a dark cloak and hood, and her design is mostly black and white. Her name is Ruci, and she's just a cinnamon roll.
- The unusually-cheerful-looking bug in the bottom right is the one I designed after myself! They're not really based on any real bugs, I just added features I liked the look of, basically. I think if I was in Hollow Knight, I would be an artist, but I'd probably use a quill rather than paint, because I use exclusively pens and pencils whenever I draw traditionally.
