#hollowlanders

I decided to make her the child of a moth higher being of the sky and clouds and a mortal beetle they fell in love with, making Whirlwind a Demigod similar to Hornet! (The beetle specifically is why she has the horn if it wasn't obvious) I also took some inspiration from her awakened form in Ring of Heroes so she'd have a cool helmet.

Behold! Hollowlanders Prism Break! I based him off the Golems found in Crystal peaks, he's probably abit smaller than them I'd imagine. I would've made his crystals purple like the ones in the peaks, but then it wouldn't be Prism Break, y'know? Oh, also my friend king helped with the hand crystals and the colors. (I got stuck on said hand crystals for like a week)

I should see about finding ways to implement the characters i draw for Hollowlanders into my worldbuilding for undergrowth... That'd be fun.

Behold! Blastermind as a....Soul sanctum bug! (What even are they supposed to be? Cicadas? Generic beetles? Whatever)

The idea was instead of Traptanium crystals, he would be using crystals from crystal peaks as a "conduit" for focusing soul.... Or something, idk, I haven't actually done that much thinking on how'd he work, i just thought the idea was cool lol.

It's ironic that i drew him first, i never even had him. Same goes for most of the other ones I've drawn, actually...... (I'll post em later once i do some touch ups!)

....Specifically Wham-Shell! He's still good ol' reliable crab man with a mace, but now it's a....macecrab? (Y'know... cuz he's a crab...and lives in the ocean..)

I loosely based him off of Giant water bugs since... y'know, WATER. That and the fact they're cool looking, and have them big ol' claws for hunting prey.

In other news, i am still taking requests for what Skylanders to draw next for the Hollowlanders project! I believe someone already requested that i draw Spitfire as one. Still uh, still cracking away at that one (how does one make a blue fire snake a bug? lol)

I saw your post about your Hollowlanders project - it's definitely a really cool combination of different video games.

I don't know too much about Skylanders since I never played the games, but I remember reading a guidebook on the characters at some point. In it it said that Spyro had some sort of dark magic form if I remember correctly? I'm not sure how to translate his design into more Hollow Knight-ly vibes, but maybe incorporating some void aspects for the dark magic form might work?

Also I think there was a dragon for each element type, so maybe a dragonfly might work for either the water or the flying dragon? Dragonflies are found near water and fly really well, so it could work as a base for either character.

No need to draw these if your focusing on other drawings - I just saw that you were looking for a few ideas so I thought it would be fun to share. I'm looking forward to seeing the next drawing for this series - you do a really good job at mimicking the HK drawing style.

Have a great day!

Oooo, i think your onto something there! I believe your referring to Dark Spyro, he was a special variant that was black and silver, and even had some unique traits in some of the 3ds games that set him apart from normal spyro! A few other Skylanders like Spitfire, King Pen, ect also had dark variants, but i never really thought of including those since I didn't want to do reposes and stuff like that since i thought it was abit... redundant, y'know?

But your idea of using void and stuff sounds very interesting! I'll definitely have to consider using that for them. (Definitely gotta do it for Spyro and Dark spyro.)

As for the different dragon Skylanders, I've already got one of them done with the air dragon, Whirlwind. (specifically the original 8 from the first game) I was gonna make them all dragonflies, but i thought it'd be more interesting to make them all based off different flying bugs in general (plus whirlwind gave me more moth vibes since she looks less like a dragon since she's part unicorn or whatever. But I'll definitely see about making the water dragon be based off a dragonfly! (It'd be kinda wrong not to afterall lol)
