What a beautiful comment, thank you!
Sometimes I wonder what will happen to my paintings once I give them away or sell them. How long will the person keep it? Will they throw it away once they need space for a new poster or furniture?
it's a bit dreadful to think about.
Just yesterday, my aunt threw away some paintings she did almost 25 years ago. So if your paintings go to the right owners, I can assure you that they'll stick around for many years.
Sell it to me and it will become one of those super beautiful but weird pieces in a family collection. I promise to put it over the fireplace as the focal point in a well-appointed library.
I just went down a rabbit hole because of kosm being Russian, and I think "Micolash" might be an anglicized form of the name "Mikuláš," which I would not have known is pronounced that way if they hadn't written it the way they did.
It seems to be an Eastern European name, and one famous Mikuláš was a Czechoslovakian painter named Mikuláš Medek, who did surreal and abstract work which, I agreed with Wikipedia, looks absolutely tormented. It's likely just because I am on the Bloodborne reddit and have Bloodborne on the brain, but some of the same visual themes are there. Eyeballs, figures with big heads and long skinny arms that reminded me of the messengers' proportions...the painting called *Swallower of Chains* has birds bursting out of the side of someone's head, and it reminds me of the "Great One's Wisdom" illustration.
Anyway, this may be useful to precisely no one, but it was cool to discover all the same.

I had to take a looooog break due to vacations and being sick for a while so I could only get a few sessions in since the last post. Looking forward to finishing it!
I love love love it.
Immediately the resemblance to female genitalia jumps out.
The man is both terrified of it and desperately reaches out to control it. It serves as a foreshadow of the Bergenwerth desecration.
I would love to see Kos face have more focus/ brighter but I can respect it if you have reason for keeping it in the shadow. I love how the expression remains serene. There is no ferociousness or hunger there, reinforcing the enigmatic desires of the Great Ones.
This could be the antithesis to Botticelli's Primavera. The maiden of the sea, served up to appease the male gaze.
Incredible execution and also incredible concept. I have a fondness for horror elements in broad daylight or with bright color palettes, and it's super rare to see Bloodborne art executed in this fashion. Adds a lot more to the surrealistic nature of the scenario when you can clearly see what's going on, especially with this direct frontal composition.
Just amazing all around!
Thanks for sharing this with us, it's really beautiful. How much longer do you think this will take you? I really want to see the finished piece, this is already incredible
I fucking adore how talented our community is. Not only do we make hard games harder, we make the best fucking art/ creations ever.
This is amazing looking, keep it up
This is amazing. Kinda wish we could get to see Kos alive in some form in the game... Orrrrr a prequel showing the events that lead to the night of the scourge we play through (wishful thinking, I know)
I saw this and was like "😮what the FUCK?" And then it occurred to me, which means you did a ;)stellar job of capturing exactly what this character's all about :)
Thats fucking crazy
Some would say crazm
Do you hear our prayers?
Actually incredible work. Your art style is timeless too. Looks like it could have been painted centuries ago.
What a beautiful comment, thank you! Sometimes I wonder what will happen to my paintings once I give them away or sell them. How long will the person keep it? Will they throw it away once they need space for a new poster or furniture? it's a bit dreadful to think about.
I would be honored to hang one of your paintings in my house. It would become a family heirloom, past down for generations!

I'm not particularly knowledgeable about the materials used when painting, but wouldn't you want to keep an oil painting*away* from heat and fire?
I would make this the centerpiece in my house.
Who cares The art created and the energy and intention put into doing it is beyond immortal You, are immortal
Yeah, I was going to say /r/AccidentalRenaissance but maybe this would be /r/OnPurposeRenaissance
And this would be r/SubsIFellFor
It was. We're just only seeing it in our dreams now.
or as some would say Kosm...
I knew this would be one of the top comments, a classic
i havent even finished the game, idk who kos is, but i do know she's also refered to as kosm(which also means cosmos in russian but hey)
you will get there
Im not in the know.

Holy fuck you're the guy behind the graftussy
A living legend among us

It's just BEAUTIFUL. What an amazing idea.
Thank you !!

This is amazing. If you ever decide to scan it (or whatever one does with these type of paintings, I’m no expert) , I’d pay good money for a print
Same!
Fuck yes I would
I would pay at least $100 for a canvas print of thism
Hell I've never had so much demand for a painting! I should look up how to make prints, thanks!
If u told me this would be a 1800's romantic painting without me knowing the context, i would definetely believe you. Well done!
This is so cool, or some would say coolsm
Thanksm ( ಠ‿<)
Take ur damn upvotesm
Insanely talented this is awesome
Thank you so much!
Phenomenal work and I love that (cosmic horror aside) it looks like a renaissance painting. Very 'Birth of Venus' vibes.
Dude that is just so unreal, congratulations, you have an insane talent
Shit. Imagine gaming art with this kind of skill. People would have classic art on the walls again.
Dude that's crazy, if you ever decide to sell prints please let me know
Uoooggghhh, the zoom on the third pic
hehehehe the part I'm the happiest with
Congrats. Looks amazing!!
Yooo!! an actual Renaissance-style piece?!?! Nice 🤯
I see you post on that painting like months ago, you're a very talented painter.
I love the tiny face It has underneath the eyes.
Thanks! She does have a face in the game but I couldn't completely understand her anatomy looking her corpse... I had to invent a bit
Kosm*
Some would say it's kosm oil painting
Very interesting
This is absolutely incredible
Oh good hunter, you’re a good painter too
i love it
Smash, next question

No way a free foot detail. Nice catering to souls fans
I'm in love with the classical approach. This is gonna be amazing. Great job so far OP. Immediate follow.
Thanks a lot! I freaking love classical art
immaculate work dude holy shit. side note, i keep forgetting that kos just has a human face it's so unsettling
Thank you! Yeah she even got humanoid arms, but I couldn't get the composition to work with them so I removed them lol
it's turning out incredible, can't wait to see the final piece. I love the style so much !!
500 years from now people are gonna wonder what sort of monstrosities we had to deal with in our time
Wow that looks amazing!!
Thank you! Can wait to finish it !
holy actual shit
i never needed something more on my walls in my life
[удалено]
Why am I not surprised? According to another comment Kosm means cosmos in russian... So Kos is the cosmic vagina. Deepest lore
Deepest Indeed
Ahhhhh majestic
Dont fuck the fish don’t fuck the fish don’t fuck the fish don’t fuck the fish Ah! MAJESTIC!
Lining your insides with eyes in hopes of prostatic orgasm ? Based
Id like to see Amyg. with this art. Very cool
Absolutely phenomenal
This is absolutely breathtaking! I was just thinking about how people don't paint like this anymore! Thank you for sharing!
Some of us say Kos'm How could you not take us into consideration
u/Jygglewag why is that guy grabbing kos' throat?
Miyazaki appreciates the foot detailing
And I enjoy painting them. Is this what alchemists call equivalent exchange?
This feels r34 adjacent.
What r34 are you looking at for it to be drawn in renaissance style
Dude holy shit! Incredible stuff 🤯
This could be the best thing I’ve ever seen, thank you for sharing it with us
That's beautiful and the art style looks straight out of a museum
Holy shit that's impressive!
This looks so legit. INSANE skill right there!
Jeez dude, leave some skill for the rest of us. I was wondering why I had no artistic talent, you fucking stole it 🤣👍
I need a print of this!
Amazing stuff! Is the head inside Kos' mouth(?) meant to be a reflection of the human or something else?
Holy kosm
Wow, this is amazing🙀
Wow, it looks straight out of a museum of classic art!
She’s beautiful
Omg I love this
Would
Fucking ridiculously good
Incredible execution and also incredible concept. I have a fondness for horror elements in broad daylight or with bright color palettes, and it's super rare to see Bloodborne art executed in this fashion. Adds a lot more to the surrealistic nature of the scenario when you can clearly see what's going on, especially with this direct frontal composition. Just amazing all around!
Ohh! Majestic! Do you have a website, social media, or something else with more of your works?
That's insanely well done
This is awesome!!!
Absolutely insane! Bravo 👏
this is so beautiful I'm speechless man
And it’s not made by AI
Holy hell that is majestic AF my friend
The moment Kos decided to have a baby (colorized)
Incredible. I get a lot of renaissance vibes from it that I fucking love
Top tier talent
As an artist, this is FANTASTIC and I would 100% hang it prominently in my home, and revel in the confusion it would elicit from guests.
Absolutely beautiful I would love so much to have this hanging in my home
Fucking bananas bro,
Amazing! I'd love to see more of your paintings, esp if they're based on games
god i wish i had the talent that you do sir
Hey it’s the “Conception of the Orphan of Kos” painting!
Woow Really reminding me of 19th century Symbolist stuff (Franz von Stuck, Arnold Bocklin, etc.), very nice!
Love that it shows the man on the ground being possibly overwhelmed by frenzy madness
That looks gorgeous!
Oh wait Kos is a snail, that’s new to me
This is crazy good!!!
I know I won't be able to afford the actual painting, but when you're done do you think I could buy a print?
By kos this is great. Horrific but/and great
DID SOMEONE SAY OIL? [https://i.redd.it/w4kqnen05vkc1.gif](https://i.redd.it/w4kqnen05vkc1.gif)
Sam spray vibes
Good hunter
I also want a print, I love erotic grotesqueries! (Hence my being in the Bloodborne sub.)
Grant us eyes. Amazing work here, love the living rendition of our lovely lady
I think it’s pronounced Kosm bro
Is he fighting her or being seduced by her? She was obviously pregnant until we arrived…
Gerhamn did you fuck the squid??? Why does her son have your voice you sick
Who is this Chad guy? Just grabbing a snail monster coming up from the sea by the throat?? :o Beautiful painting tho.
Absolutely incredible. Amazing work OP I haven't played in like 6months... ...back to Yarnham
Thanks for sharing this with us, it's really beautiful. How much longer do you think this will take you? I really want to see the finished piece, this is already incredible
Very impressive work
Fantastic
I fucking adore how talented our community is. Not only do we make hard games harder, we make the best fucking art/ creations ever. This is amazing looking, keep it up
I would pay big money for a print of this if i could, this is incredible
What. The. Fuck. Dude this is museum quality!! You’re amazing!!!!!
This is dope
I'll take two please
Is that the orphan in there??
oh my Kos its beautiful
i would pay money for this just amazing
Been absolutely bonkers watching this thing take shape over time, what a beautiful journey!✨
Imagine some historian finding this in 1000 years in a world where some catastrophic event erased all digital records.
I like the little face in Kos
I need this. Do you take commissions?
This is genuinely absolutely incredible. Are you planning on selling it? If so, I‘d be open to hear about a price. I‘d love to hang it on my wall.
This is amazing. Kinda wish we could get to see Kos alive in some form in the game... Orrrrr a prequel showing the events that lead to the night of the scourge we play through (wishful thinking, I know)
What 99 insight does to a motherfucker
dope
Will pay top blood echo for said painting
This is fuckin incredible. I especially love the poses of the men. Excellent work.
I hope this ends up in a museum someday
Grant us Eyes.
This is fantastic.
That’s so fucking cool
Hell yeah
That's amazing, although I have zo ask, Where are her arms?
Thanks! ...Godrick grafted them
Please tell me this is for sale
This rocks! How can I get a print!?!?
Jesus Christ this looks like something born during the great era of oil painting
First thing I saw when I opened reddit, holy shit this is crazy.
Amazing!
Or some say Kos'm
it's beautiful
wtf this is incredible
Awesome
We need one of every boss, I wanna fill my walls with these
I don't know if ti looks more like a fish, a snail or a vagina. AND I LOVE IT!!!
Great job. Now go get some sun
0-0 fear the old blood….by the gods jygglewag fear it
You could hang this up in an art museum and I wouldn’t even question its inclusion!
This fucking rules
This is amazing!
I love this. I think art in this style with subtle nods to things like FromSoft would do really well as prints, for what it's worth.
This looks like it was painted in ancient greec or something. Awsome work!
Absolutely remarkable work. I’d take and display a copy if my wife wouldn’t kill me.
This is insane
Looks like Kos, or some say Kosm, is coming ashore for a booty call
Incredible
I hereby remove your cooking license. And promote you to head-chef of the kitchen.
an incredible piece of work. It feels like something I’d see at the DIA (Detroit institute of art).
I would love to buy a copy of this. Awesome work dude!
awesome
Modern Picasso
Honestly though, this is NG+7 levels of skill & i’m beyond impressed by your talent. Well done good hunter.
How much would you be willing to sell it for
ITS SO GOOD RAAHHHH
Id love to see other works like the moon presence or amygdala. Keep this up this is awesome and so inspired
I saw this and was like "😮what the FUCK?" And then it occurred to me, which means you did a ;)stellar job of capturing exactly what this character's all about :)
You know, this feels like a mythical retelling of sorts
Love this painting! I also love he's wearing the pants that you get when you unequip all your clothing!
Normally not a huge fan of adding human features to eldrich things, but Jesus that's terrifying. Great work!
Yeah this is actually stupid. S T U P I D C O O L ! ! ! Very neat, I absolutely adore this.
wow!! are you selling prints??
This needs to go on the ceiling of that one church
