Zounds! Tis the King of Daventry, after all these years!
A portrait of King Graham for the 40th anniversary of the Kingās Quest adventure game seriesā¤ļøš©µ It is my favorite video game franchise and every so often, I return to it. I have such fond memories playing them as a child as wellāI was fortunate enough to have an older cousin who introduced my brother and I to them. Some of you may remember the 2015 reimagining, but I grew up with the original 80s-90s games.
For those who donāt know, Kingās Quest is a fantasy adventure series that follows the Royal Family in the Kingdom of Daventry. The first game sees the heroic Knight Graham inherit the throne, and in the last (which I actually havenāt finished playing) the mantle passed to another knight. Every member of the family takes the spotlight at least once - though Graham, being the one who started it all, puts on his adventurerās cap most often.
Though my favorite game is actually the AGD fan remake of Kingās Quest 2 (and I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone, fan or otherwise,) my favorite official installment is Kingās Quest 5. This is largely because Graham is my favorite character, but also I have the most memories of playing this game, along with KQ6 (which is arguably the best in the franchise, with Prince Alexander as the protagonist.)
TL;DR - I wanted to draw something to honor both this anniversary and a fond piece of my childhood, so hereās the good King Grahamš
Any other KQ fans out there? Let me know! Maybe Iāll do more art in the futureā¦only time will tell!
