Today's random portfolio artwork is a life-size model of a small Arthropleura (40cm long – they grew to 250cm long), which I built for MUSE – the Science Museum of Trento, in 2014.

so in your hollow knight au, what would interactions between wyrms and humans be like? how did the Pale Wyrm come to be?
i'm sorry i'm a huge lore buff and i love hollow knight aaaaa
This is a size comparison and fun Pale King Concept.
I like combining a bit of reality with fantasy, so if Hollow Knight did exist within the Human realm, I think it would be interesting if the Pale King was a magical offshoot of the Arthropleura, a giant extinct millipede which lived 300 million years ago.
Aren't they beautiful. (don't worry they were Herbivores🥦yummy plant roots)
I'd imagine the Pale King's linage is a powerful magical race of Arthropleura surviving in the deep cave systems below. He would easily be able to take down an adult human. Thankfully the two sides never clashed.

Oof, took some time to label these and touch up some rough spots. But here it is, the Mazon Creek #paleostream piece. This was, again, a piece that barely scratches the surface.
Mazon is a Carboniferous Lagerstätte and preserves hundreds of species, one could fill whole books with scenes like these. Biggest challenge was that we have two distinct faunas, the marine Essex biota and the terrestrial Braidwood biota. Some marine animals might be able to venture into freshwater but usually the two don't mix much so I had to find a way to transplant a piece of fauna into the other. We settled on a natural raft, the likes we still see today.
After storms or floods, mats of vegetation can drift out to sea and carry with them whole communities of organisms. On the other hand driftwood is often used by marine animals as shelter so from both sides we have reasons for animals to be here. As you can see in this size chart by Discord member JW, there is much more one could have added.
But I leave that part to YOU if you are inclined to pick up where I left off ;)

A sketch study of Arthropleura armata, the monstrous cow-sized Late Carboniferous-Early Permian millipede which could grow up to 2.5 meters long and 50-55 cm wide, lived about 346-290 million years ago in Europe and North America, and is the largest terrestrial arthropod ever to have lived, and an impression of an individual leaving behind a trackway in its open woodland habitat somewhere in what is now central France as a Meganeura monyi flies by in the foreground.
Newly-described juvenile specimens from the Montceau-les-Mines fossil site of eastern France reveal that Arthropleura’s facial anatomy was different from those of modern millipedes and that the monster myriapod forms the sister group of the centipede-millipede crown group.
