Hollow Knight, Hanging Bells by miaoky118 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

This really is a beautiful piece of art. The composition is amazing, and the warm colors really complement each other very well. Hornet's cloak against the grass really makes her stand out against everything else, and the halo behind the building makes it stick out from the background. I feel like the stone ridges on either side of Hornet look a little flat, though--especially on the right side. Mainly the top of it--it looks like the light might've shone off some parts differently, or that some dark spots might have... I don't know. It looks weirdly undefined to me, for some reason.

The bells look like they might be massive, strung on the cavern walls. They look like moons. I wonder how large they would be, if one were to fall.

Forgive me for mentioning, but I am a little confused about something. I noticed that the signature in the bottom-right doesn't match your username. I was concerned, so I reverse-imaged searched, but this was the only place that I saw it on. And looking at your profile, you have many other fantastic paintings in the same style--though many of them don't seem to have the same signature as this one, and do match with your username. Out of curiosity, is there a reason for the change in signature?
