Last Dream of Home

Ramblings + closeups below

I know that song is from EotE but the title spoke to me, and really fit the vibe of what I wanted to convey here-

I realized Esker was the only OWV founding member i hadn't drawn yet, and it felt deeply wrong to even envision drawing them alone. So here's my Esker centric piece, in which theyre very much not at the center, because to me the message of their character is that community is the most important part of our existences. Even away from home, they kept an eye out for their friends, monitoring them through their signalscope making sure everyone was ok. And at the end of times, I really hope Esker saw their friends around a campfire, because it was their most cherished wish to see them all happy together again.

(Im not being very eloquent here but I'm conked out by the current heatwave happening where i live) Anyway, closeups on the friends

esker tries to calm down marl only to discover the anger will linger for the rest of their lifes

This was the follow on to THIS

Because we couldn't leave Feldspar and Esker out for too long, and I really wanted to see them all in one frame ::D

I think about this game a normal amount

Random Outer Wilds au idea where the Hatchling (Your character) goes around every planet in an extreme rush to drag every other Hearthian Space Explorer and Solanum's ghostly semi-quantum semi-corpse to the Eye of the Universe with them. Sadly can't bring the prisoner because they are probably dead.

Imagine Riebeck's reaction to being forced into a Spaceship with A REAL NOMAI!

Imagine Esker finally seeing everyone else after so long! (Except for those who actually visit them, like Chert)

Chert being Chert might be nice to have Gabbro help prove to Chert you are indeed, in a time loop, even though you're ending it now.

Gabbro is your time buddy. Gabbro isn't getting out of the abduction of literally everyone in the space race.

Solanum: She gets to fulfill her entire race's dream of reaching the eye. Plus it might be a fun experience being around so many Hearthians even if she can't understand them.

Feldspar. You probably PULL a Feldspar just to reach them in time before the sun explodes. Poor friend is chucked into a crowded spaceship With a Nomai and can't even comprehend it before everyone is chucked onto the original Vessel and shot to the Eye of the Universe.

Gabbro is probably the only one with any idea what you're doing the entire time. Poor Hearthian is trying their best to explain to their fellow adventurers what exactly is going on while the Hatchling bolts across space.

Yes, I'm biased and doing this to prove a point. 😌🙏

Outer Wilds painting I did a year ago after I finished the game 👍 I just never became satisfied with it to post it. Although I was/am pretty proud of some of the details. It's a really small painting so the majority of this was painted with itty bitty detail brushes. Also it's gouache and a bit of colour pencils, but mostly gouache

Anyways the idea was [We have a little more time together to get a group photo taken ( Esker included, fuck Feldspar tho)

Anyways, second version and close-up here uwuw

[randomgamefan]

Very important question for the Outer Wilds fans out there. Which one. You must pick.

[spitzyyyy]

Hey another artdump wow crazy

fauxbia pressured me into uploading the last one under the cut

Here’s that gd feldspar alt image

[ask-esker]

Howdy there people! It appears that I got a weird signal on my signalscope, and I might as well use it. I'm Esker, a founder of Outer Wilds Ventures, currently on the Attlerock. My job is to fix any spaceship that comes to me, but nobody comes 'round here much these days, so I mostly just whistle.

Anyway, now that introductions are over, who in Hearth's Wandering moon am I talking too?

hallo just dropping by to dump some previous outer wilds doodles heh

Campfire Fest 2024, last day! <3 ( @outerwilds-events ) Day 7: Open Prompt!

Alt versions+ramble under cut

I've been getting emotional about the game again this past week, and it's entirely thanks for this festival, I'd say. It was nice to draw the travelers, I've been meaning to for a while. ::)

I wanted to explain the meaning behind this one, but I think it's better to leave it open!

This piece was frustrating at first, but I learned to love it, and here we are! It's simple, it's low-effort, but I personally love it. Let's walk together to the eye. ::)

Thank you for hosting this event, I had a lot of fun joining in 💖
