A sketchy view of Wingshade capital; City of Ebony Wings

[e-farmer]

I still come back to look at all the cool stuff made for Wingshade. It's what helped get me interested in doing hollow knight themed worldbuilding. I really should share more of my stuff!

[techrathegod]

*Throws the art aggressively*

GUYS I DID IT, I FINISHED IT OMG

Here you have Evander, the mayor (now ex) of the city of tears and also the father of Leonardo!

Thanks to @lingering-cryptids for the idea >:DDDD

expect more soon... (Okay, maybe if the ao3 author curse won't happen this month and cause another calamity lmao)

[e-farmer]

Ooo, I don't think I've seen a character that's is (or was) the mayor of the City of Tears! Very nice!

[e-farmer]

Welp, Guess I have a Chorus Oc now lol! This is Tenth Chorus! Who's based off Guardener from Undertale Yellow! (The Ten in the name is a reference to Guardeners theme, Tenth Level Lockdown!)

My friend Fandoms on discord (who said it's okay I share this) Heard me talking about an idea I had to make a Cogwork version of Guardener from Undertale Yellow to be a boss for another friends character in the Silksong RP server im in, amd they offered to draw this beauty for me! Don't got much lore yet for the big fella, just know this.

DON'T TRAMPLE THE FLOWERS

Oh, and do feel free to say some nice things about the art in the comments and stuff, Fandoms deserves all the compliments they can get for drawing this for me! (They're so cool)

[butterflytetra]

I thought this was such a cool idea, so I decided to try adding on to it a bit!

Fourteenth Alto was one of the early prototypes for what would eventually become the cogwork Sentinels. He was created by an ancient architect who disappeared long ago, with rumours circulating that he succumbed to silk experiments he carried out on himself in the Whiteward. He now stands guard over the Underworks.

(I made the lightbulb into a vessel for a silkfly, and the shield is based off the bin lid and Tiso's shield.)

Please tell your friend that I really like their Tenth Chorus art! It's super cool!

[e-farmer]

OMG HELLO?????????? THIS IS SO FUCKING AWESOME! STRAIGHT ONTO THE FRIDGE! THIS ABSOLUTELY MADE ME AND MY FRIENDS DAY.

I WAS WANTING TO MAKE AXIS INTO A COGWORK NEXT, BUT YOU BEAT ME TO IT LMAOOOO!

By the powers invested in me, I hereby canonize this as part of all the different Citadel shenanigans I've cooked up!

Carving Rosaries

Overseen by Ministers, these workers carved rosaries in the high halls of the Citadel. Their order is mostly made up of the same species of bug as Pharloom’s Mask Maker.

I’m working with holbein artists gouache again. It’s very difficult!

[e-farmer]

OMG that's so genius?? These guys would fit in amazingly with the lore I'm working on for the Citadels Bank and economy! I MUST know more about them!

Yet another Citadel OC to go upon the fridge lmao. Very nice design!

[kraymergal]

My eleventeenth silksong oc: Pharloom's Menderbug, Golde the Grandfixer.

He's a boss, only triggered to spawn if you've broken at least 10 signs and have triggered the reawakening of the Citadel in Act 2.

After meeting all of the requirements, you go to break another sign. On the final hit, it breaks and a trap is sprung, wrapping Hornet in a tight cocoon of silk. Golde then appears, accusing Hornet of heresy in the highest order, as well as being uncultured in the appreciation of the arts, and, attributing these disgusting acts to her Weaver-blood, which he can smell both in essence and silk, which his body is built to seek, attacks.

He makes use of the Clawmaiden's (which the Grandfixers, and thus he, were built from) silk-stealing abilities liberally throughout the fight, both to fashion attacks and repair his wounds. His attacks aren't difficult to pin down, the difficulty comes in both his evasiveness and how the arena of the fight can work against you, as the fight takes place wherever you broke that last sign. If you trigger the fight in Act 3, he becomes consumed by void a bit after the fight starts too, adding more attacks to his arsenal and making it even harder.

For beating him, you get the Grandfixer's Toolkit, a yellow tool that, when worn, makes it so you regain all expended tools when you die at no shell shard cost, only requiring you craft new ones if you make it to a bench alive.

[e-farmer]

Welp, you know the drill by now if i reblog a Silksong oc. Up onto the fridge you go Golde!

[e-farmer]

It's about time I posted this fella here, (I finished him like 4ish weeks ago) my first Conductor OC (that's got a design I'm willing to share lol)

Behold!

Conductor Zebastios Teknicog the 2nd!

(don't tell my other OCs, but he's slowly becoming my new favorite cuz of how fun it is to RP as him)

His whole deal is he's the Conductor in-charge of the Industrial aspects of the Citadel (Underworks, Deep Docks, ect) and worked very closely with the Architects. He values industry and scientific advancement over anything else, and is a avid hater of the Silk the Citadel uses to extend life. Thus he's extended his life using technology and Cogwork cybernetics instead of going down to the Whiteward for a "check-up"

I'd share more of his lore, or what he looks like underneath his Conductors attire, but alot of it's still in the works. (Maybe I'll post the character bio at a later point?)

Feel Free to ask some questions about him if ya have some, I work better with answering questions then blabbering on by myself lmao.

[lazyvirow]

I like this so much

[e-farmer]

Oooo, some sort of worm species with a Harpoon tongue, very interesting!

[slate021]

Made a bunch of Skong OCs the other day :) had quite a bit of fun trying to make common enemies look unique. Some more successful than others i think haha

[e-farmer]

Yessssssss more Citadel OCs, and some based on enemies that I haven't seen many OCs of!

Gosh I need to get to work making more and ACTUALLY posting them here ASAP!

[dannythedrawer]

ugly stupid chud daughter silksong oc

i hate her

[e-farmer]

Magnificent, truly magnificent. This goes right onto the fridge in the High Halls.

My heart aches for these kind of characters, those that have become obsolete and forgotten... Well I'm gonna imagine my Minister Pomfrey would come be her friend and keep her company.

[techrathegod]

Drew something to battle burn out lmao

I'm winning

Meet Grand Doctor Romulus!

Old guy and not really evil

Just doing his job (he won't hesitate turning you into a silkfly tho - but he's chill, trust me)

[e-farmer]

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

HOW ARE YOU SO FUGGIN GOOD AT MAKING PEAK?! EXPLAIN YOUR WITCHCRAFT!

This has gotta be one of the coolest designs I've seen for a Silksong Oc yet! I'm so fuckin jealous!

[e-farmer]

Y'know what we need these days? More Citadel OCs. So I ask you, people on Tumblr, gimme some ideas for Citadel bugs to draw! My suggestion box is getting empty, and that won't do!

Doesn't have to be just Choir members btw, could be a Judge, Underworker, Slab Fly, ect. We just need MORE Citadel-aligned bugs! I'll even draw things that aren't canon to what's seen in-game, like a Tax collector! (Note to self, draw that later)

Oh, and have this unnamed and unarmed (haven't drawn the weapon design yet lol) Chorister Oc I drew! Had fun messing around with filters to make the Silk glowy, might've made it too glowy though but eh, it was a first attempt lol!

[overgrownmoon]

hollow knight weapons compendium pt 1

ok its not a true, comprehensive list, but here are my notes and thoughts about the construction of various weapons seen in hollow knight. this only includes weapons separate from the body, so no scythe-arms or horns.

all images and information pulled from the Hollow Knight Wiki.

[overgrownmoon]

hollow knight weapons compendium pt 2: silksong and headcanons

this half includes weapons seen from the silksong teasers/trailers, the pale court mod, and some of my own designs.

god i hope that shields in silksong are called buttons. button shields are a real type of shield and it would fit so well, man...

[techrathegod]

Meet my another Conductor oc Maximus!

Had him in my mind since creating Leonardo, basically the guy is supposed to be the reverse personality of Leonardo 'cause I think that's cool lol

He is a real bastard I can tell you that much (responsible for most of the atrocities in the Citadel, whoops)

He likes to blackmail

Like think about Jack Horner from puss in boots, that's literally him (which is sad, because Maximus is really talented in what he does)

But corruption gets to you in the end I guess

Also conspires with doctor Hector and successfully runs away with him after finding out about their sentencing

They'll be back, oh they will be.

Also the song that has the vibe of Maximus

[e-farmer]

Nice to see more Conductor OCs popping up, even if this one's clearly a proper c#nt lol

Ughhhhhh, Citadel gimme strength to finish my own Conductor OCs... These lesbian Conductors I have aren't gonna draw themselves!

[e-farmer]

Woe, my first of many Cogwork OCs upon you, meet Seventh Assembler! (Don't ask what happened to 1st through 6th Assembler)

Some lore down here! ⤵️

He's a heavily modified Weaver Servitor/Cogwork hybrid (all the Weaver bits are on the inside, he's replaced his outside with Cog-Steel over the years as to upgrade himself) that resides predominantly within the Underworks, assembling many of the tools and weapons the Citadels loyal servants use on a daily basis (Pins, Armor, Tools, Cogworks, ect.)

Originally he was an assistant to a Weaver responsible for the creation of most of the Weaver technology, (examples being the Weaveshots and Servitors) until he was eventually repurposed by the Architects into being a simple Assembler of tools while the Architects focused on creating and designing the more grandiose projects such as the Cogwork Choruses or the Cogwork Core.

Nowadays since there's no Architects besides the Twelfth architect (who doesn't really care what he gets up to as long as he's not breaking anything) Seventh Assembler has been able to create and design multiple different types of weapons and Cogworks (which he's not allowed to be doing because he makes practical warcrimes lol)
