"Found Footage 3"
Fanart/concept made in GIMP for "Found Footage 3", the newest installment of the Backrooms series by Kane Pixels. The outline of the house was made with a screenshot reference from the video.
Thoughts beneath the cut; I will try to avoid obvious spoilers:
This is an art style I am currently experimenting with, though my current art backlog is long enough that I would have posted the first of the pictures in that art style in a week or two earliest. But then FF3 came out and I got the urge to make fanart for one particular scene, or at least make a concept of what I had in mind.
Yes, this is the house from the preview image. Those who have seen the video likely know which part of FF3 this picture is referencing. It was eerie, it was tragic, and I have so. many. questions.
Very simple fanart/concept that I made in a rush because I wanted to put the idea down and because the next few days are going to be rather busy for me, but I like it for how I managed to get the vibes and the general idea across imo.

"Proceed To Exit (TOV edition)"
Pictogram/exit sign fanart for "The Oldest View" by Kane Pixels. Made in GIMP.
I was planning a piece of fanart that incorporated an exit sign and then looked those up and realised that - from what I found - there doesn't seem to be some kind of norm for exit signs. Like the figures etc all seem to have different proportions.
Then came the idea to make my own pictogram for the piece I had planned, and then things kinda escalatated from there lol. I imagined what different exit signs for different pieces of media may look like - realised that there *is* media where exit signs even make sense - and well. Was overcome by creative frenzy and made this in less than an hour, returned to it later in the day and further refined it for another 30-40 mins. So, less than 2 hours in total.
I love this. This opens up a couple further possibilities in making art and collages especially (I could use this as part of a grunge poster for example), but also to make fanart of other pieces of media with its own pictograms.
Also, like with pixelart, it is a cool exercise to break things down to their basic shapes and characteristics while keeping it all recognizable, and working in a liminited format is always a fun challenge.
(Please do not look too closely at the perspective of those stairs btw. Instead of going and seriously considering perspective and all that, I just went 'ah, it's a concept, I'll just wing it' XD)
In case anyone is interested in the original version/concept:
