A few lil concept pieces for 3 of my Hollow Knight Kingdoms. Architecture is hard so... they're not super detailed. These kingdoms are all VERY far away from Hallownest. A few months travel at most to reach it.

Sundrea, a desert kingdom deep within a cave of falling sand. Nirandel, a peaceful kingdom illuminated by the mushrooms and roots that thread through it. And Highreign, a dark place of onyx and silver ruled by many kings and has a pretty bad reputation for starting conflicts.

A LOT more text below (:

Sundrea

Sundrea is a mix of the words... Sun lol, and Drea. I pronounce it 'Soon-drea' but say it however you wish. It is a kingdom of mostly Spearbugs (a species I made), scarabs and other desert dwelling insects.

I chose the name Drea since it seemingly means strong, but is a feminine name- which perfectly fits with my idea that the female Spearbugs are the strongest warriors in the kingdom. (Girlboss moment)

Spearbugs are all about fighting and brute force- you could compare them to vikings or barbarians, letting out mighty battle cries.

They are no architects... most of Sundrea was built by the scarabs beetles, who are a lot more creative and skilled in that field.

There are a mix of brilliantly crafted bronze homes, the large castle, and then clay domes for the less wealthy, though money isn't a huge issue in the kingdom, as most would rather do simple trades for goods. Theres a strong sense of union within the entire kingdom.

Magic is prohibited within Sundrea and is frowned upon by Spearbugs. Though saying that... the current Queen has taken an interest in it, and performs her own practices in secrecy.

Nirandel

Nirandel is a kingdom of white, incandescent bugs that are scholars in most kinds of magic, even Soul. The kingdom is surrounded by a lake, and has many long caves leading in and out of its vicinity.

The roots have a source- very similar to the White Lady. A gargantuan being who's body and roots help fuel the kingdom with magic/ mana. She is the source of it, and is why the kingdom has flourished in its magical studies.

The bugs there are peaceful, consisting of pure white bugs, silverfish, pallid moths, silver dragonflies and many foreign travelers in search of magical knowledge.

Highreign

A kingdom that sees little light in the endless dark cavern. It is only lit by faint glowing rocks and fireflies. The kingdom is grand and has an oppressive atmosphere to it.

Highreign is known to start conflicts with other kingdoms under the command of 4 kings. They have successfully destroyed at least 3 other kingdoms and reaped their resources. Some worryingly wait the day that Highreign targets them.

Not much is known about Highreign otherwise. Little who enter it do not leave, and those that were born and raised there do not venture to other lands unless tasked to.

Unity, Control, Fear.

The kingdom is split into the slums and the upper-class. The slums are simple stone cottages, run down and struggling to get by, while the upper-class areas have glowing silver interiors that contrast with the darkness of the outside world.

They have a massive Colosseum as well where they watch their warriors fight till their death, either against each other or ferocious beasts.

Aaand thats all I have for now (: I'm just happy to finally get some of my vision out onto a canvas.

If you read all this... then you're a champion! Thank you 🧡

So I recently fell in love with Hollow Knight over summer and am super into the game and world and everything about it. I started making Hollow OCs and even got a friend into it.

Here’s an unnamed OC. Not part of the Grim Troupe but goes against the rituals. As alluring as she is, she will back stab you.

Oh damn I didn’t know it shortened long posts, thats cool actually.

Well here’s a few more doodles, Hollow Knight and one Bug Fables cos I still can’t decide on Harrolds look. My friends like his first design and yet I hate it lol. Oh the uncertainty!

Another silly little comic with Eralind, Emery and Harrol- Oh I mean Halaro!

Joke I had when Silksongs 2nd trailer finally dropped. I started working on a piece aaaand immediately dropped it for more Kirby stuff. This is also a little sequel to the last comic featuring these three.

I really like the ‘Dream Friends’ piece I did for Halaro, it was fun!

I thought I posted this here at the time, but I guess I didn’t... this is the HK piece that I dropped. I’ll probably pick it back up at some point, but my HK mood is definitely very low.

It’s been a long time but this is the next pic of my Hollow Knight OCs following Emery and Eralind’s pics.

Here the Soul Successor is ready to do battle, atop the heights of the City of Tears. Drenched in rain, she seems furious. Who is she fighting? Is she the villain here? Or... the hero?

This piece has some story significance, along with being her main home. So it felt fitting! SUPER happy with how this came out and I just really wanted to draw her again (:

Harrold and Hornet clash blades in an old yet well kept chapel. This was meant to be more like casual sparring, but I ended up going with a more serious feeling. I wonder if they remain friends, or has something stirred up between the two warriors?

Small lil idol animation test! Not perfect, but I wanted to try animating Harrold as if he was an NPC in the game.

Albeit I’m no true animator. But I’d love to be able to try and animate some sprites of him.

Also realizing the sword should probably be silver so it stands out more.

Emery wants to give you a warm welcome to Highreign. Her home kingdom~

These are concepts for one of many Kingdoms in my Hollow Knight story. Didn't think I'd be designing Highreign stuff before Harrold or Eralind's homes bUT HERE WE ARE!!! Here we have- 🔶 4 kings, 2 pale, 2 dark. A slight theme of a chessboard and its pieces perhaps? They're gonna be slightly based off of the Prophets from Halo. They four rule the kingdom with an iron first. Where is their queen I wonder... And which of these kings holds the most power...? 🔶 Some wips of the Prince and some... windows and symbols? Merely tests. 🔶 The castles many Handmaidens, cloaked and covered to hide their bodies, wearing veils that drop far down past their faces. Are they bugs with humanity to the kings, or merely pawns? Despite being elegant and delicate, when need be they are ready for combat. Many different species and sizes too. 🔶 A... seemingly more important Handmaiden? She has no name... but she's a cutie for sure! I actually had her as a base so I could draw the Handmaidens outfits... then a few peeps said they liked her- so I ended up making her a proper character xD No clue what her role is yet but ey! In due time fearless warrior~ More to come eventually! Possibly Eralind's place will be next~

An unexpected encounter for Harrold. A mysterious Spearbug appears- while Harrold thought he was the last of his kind... She does not wield the same garments or gems as his kind do.

Perhaps there are more beyond the harsh desert and his fallen kingdom. Who is she though...?

While she seems opposing, Harrold revels this encounter.

Do they seek the same ideals? Do they lead the same life?

Only if she's willing to spare him some time.
