At the Edge of the Forest - A Community Fan Art Retrospective, Part 2

[Patrick Carlson]

At the Edge of the Forest - Lost Souls and Lonely Places

In part two of our look back at fan art in The Long Dark community, we’re stepping away from wildlife encounters and scouting for visions of lonely hilltops, forests and cabins. Isolation has been a recurring theme for many fan artists inspired by The Long Dark, and we’re proud to share some of our favorites with you once again.

And be sure to check out part one of our retrospective series as well, which you can find here.

Lovely art ! Congrats to all of the artists ! I want to see more of this kind of artworks ! 

[TheSurvivemer]

The art in this post and in part 1 is amazing, congrats to all that collaborated!

One question @Patrick Carlson... I would love to showcase these pieces, with proper creits and mentions to the artists, in the intro sections of my let's play episodes. I started a thread for that purpose here, but I think is not going to be seen by all these artists soon ... I certainly don't want to publish anything without permission (although I personally don't find it bad or rude to do so with proper credits).

Just wanted to know, as I see your post, if you got direct permission from them, or you contacted them directly? Maybe Hinterland is allowed to showcase these without explicit permission, for obvious reasons...

Thanks in advance!

All are so gorgeous on so many levels, but I super really like  @DaltonP's. I have done white conte on black paper and always enjoy that sort of artwork/look. Additionally, reminds me of Japanese artworks (namely, the cover of Weezer's Pinkerton album, by Hiroshige).

[barbiekait]

All of these are amazing!

[Lonelyloper]

Wow

[Patrick Carlson]

Probably due for a Part 3 at this point! Glad for all the recognition for these great artists.

@Patrick Carlson!  Welcome back to the forums!  It's been ages since we've seen you.
