Cameo Draws Don't Starve


Recommended Posts

I noticed that several other people I recognised had fanart threads for their art and I wanted to get in on that action. I've been wading steadily deeper into the Don't Starve fandom on Tumblr ever since I started playing the game in June, but this is my first time posting art here! (My Tumblr is usually cameoappearance.tumblr.com but since it's October I have renamed it to cameoapparition.tumblr.com for the month. I do not have a specific artblog or Don't Starve blog, this is just one of the many things I post there.)

This was an unpleasant shock the first time it happened, but now it's just, welp, business as usual. Sometimes to the point where I don't even bother chopping a firebreak into the trees and just burn down the entire spider-infested forest so I don't have to spend dusk or night in or near it.

This is how my second-to-last Adventure Mode run ended. I got King of Winter straight out of the gates and the Deerclops attacked three times in forty-something days. (I was going as fast as I could.) I tried to rescue Chester from his clutches after he killed me, but that just got me killed in a single hit because I forgot that his ground pound thing does damage to everything in the attack radius.

 

I get killed trying to rescue Chester a lot.

I'm still working on my Webber design. Getting the correct number of headlegs is a start though.

What kind of flower is that in Wendy's hair, anyway? I'm not very knowledgeable about nature, I just tried to make it look like the in-game one.

Woodie just heard something disturbing and unexpected

(I tried him with pupils or faded pupils like I gave Wendy but they looked weird)

I like the upgraded Chesters. I go for Snow Chester in Sandbox Mode and Shadow Chester in Adventure Mode.

I adore Smallbirds but I am so bad at keeping them alive

Working out treeguard anatomy, mostly.

 

Since I usually play as Wilson, figured out how to draw him before I worked out my design for anyone else, and a lot of these are redraws of stuff that happened to me in-game, that's why there's so much of him. (The one with Wilson complaining about spiders while surrounded by them was a redraw of this screenshot, however, which was not me. I mean, it's the kind of thing that would happen to me, but it didn't.)

 

I also have a Wilson cosplay, but the props aren't finished so here I am in my front yard with a perfectly ordinary shovel that happened to be out there.

I suggest you post new images as new replies. This is so people notice updates, and also the first post is art overload already and you don't want to crack our feeble brains do you? :p

 

As for what flower Wendy wears, it may be a lotos, especially since it's probably dry and dead already, and thus presumably sacks down to what one can see in-game.

I intend to post new art in new posts! The Willow picture was supposed to go in the first post all along, I just had a brain fart and had to edit her in because I forgot to upload it on the first go-round.

 

Hm, yeah, I googled "red lotus flower" and it looks pretty similar to the flower that summons Abigail. But if the petals are more tightly contracted, then it would look like the one on Wendy's character model. Entirely possible!

and you killed it with a diving rod...I don't know, i am confused!!!

 

Well, you know that situation when the radio, compuhtah, tellie or alike stops working properly? You hit it, really hard, if that didn't help you smash it onto the table and suddenly it is fixed. In this case, however, that didn't suffice either, so Wilson took it a step further...

Yeah, he's smashing spiders with the Divining Rod. I had every intention of drawing the radio part of the rod up until I ran out of room on the paper, so I was hoping the long zig-zaggy handle would be clear enough. You can use it as a weapon in-game, but it takes something like eight hits to kill one spider and you have to hold down the Force Attack button, so basically the only time when you would want to is early in Adventure Mode when you don't want to wear out your axe any sooner than you have to.

 

The spider blood is purple because Monster Meat is purple. I figured that if they dropped purple meat, they must have purple guts. (Nightmare Fuel is more of a translucent grey anyhow.)

I drew a Blue Hound to try and make sense of their anatomy. I'm not sure I succeeded. They seem to be about 80% head with legs and a tail stuck on.

 

Also the body (or, indeed, head) shape Hounds have has always kind of reminded me of boars somehow, in addition to hunting dogs.

80 percent head.

Puppetmaster Wendy destroying some flowers! Based on the Funeral skin concept art (or at least that's where I got the idea for the hat), because I liked the idea of her going funerary rather than creepy-little-girl as a puppetmaster. Similar to the way Maxwell turns into some kind of horrible vulture-man as you progress through Adventure Mode, I imagine her appearance would get increasingly skeletal and undead and she’d look less like an attendee of the funeral and more like the guest of honour.

 

I like the idea of Abigail taking the place of Charlie, but I don’t think that actually works lorewise because Charlie's supposed to stay put even if Maxwell gets kicked off the Throne. Unless this is actually an AU, anyway.

 

Her pigtails seem to have grown since the last time I drew her. Also the only reason it cuts off at the right edge is because I drew her too close to the edge of the paper.

I'm making a Ham Bat.

 

This isn't the finished product, it's basically the rough draft to make sure the general layout works before I actually do any sewing. (My sewing machine is older than I am and very, very ornery.) As a result it looks like a very low-resolution Ham Bat right now.

 

It's a boffer, by the way; the design had to be something I could wallop someone with without hurting either the person or the prop. So there's most of a roll of quilt batting in there. It's like a pillow with a handle.
