A cartoon fridge door with Fan Art Friday in colourful magnets. A framed piece of art on the right shows a group of three pirates looking at you from a ship. Each pirate has their own style - the one on the left is shirtless but tattooed and wears a belt with a buckle of crab claws, the one in the middle wears a classic jacket and a wide-brimmed hat decorated with a white feather, while the third has a peg leg, a taller hat with a bigger, orange feather and a jacket with very prominent lapels.

A tiger and a trio walk into a #FanArtFriday, which is an impressive feat for two pieces of art from Tumblr and a hashtag, but we needed some sort of intro didn't we? The Viva Piñata Tigermisu comes from millies-theme, while the @seaofthieves.com pirate crew is by snypi. GOOD STUFF!

It may be Community Weekend in @seaofthieves.com, but right here it's time for a good old #FanArtFriday. A pair from Twitter/X this week, with the extremely characterful Banjo and Kazooie from DanDarkOne and a somewhat scary pirate from those aforementioned waters by ZoranDaemon.

A pair of pirates cheer and smile in front of a celebratory fireworks display and a purple flag with a gold silhouette of three pirates hugging. To their left a banner reads "Join us for Sea of Thieves Community Weekend. #SeaOfThievesCommunityWeekend. 27th Mar 2026 - 30th Mar 2026, 10am UTC".

Our beloved Sea of Thieves is eight, and Instagram's gemmajohnsonart bestowed a beautiful bronze parakeet on us to celebrate! Also getting a #FanArtFriday highlight is Instagram's jrlunadesigns with their minimal, but still-intimidating, Fulgore from Killer Instinct. LOVELY.

We first encouraged people to set sail into our silly adventure-filled pirate sandbox @seaofthieves.com eight whole years ago, and we celebrated that this week with CAKE! And NOTEBOOKS! Both were delicious. A sincere thank you to everyone who's ever played in the past 2920 days 💙💛

The cheery faces of Conker and Berri, a red squirrel and chipmunk respectively, smile at you over a green grid-like background disappearing into the distance. Title below reads 'Rock Solid Revitalised', and the image also features the logos for Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Apple Music, Deezer, Tidal and TikTok.

It was Conker's Bad Fur Day's 25th anniversary last week, and to mark the occasion @robinbeanland.com, the original composer of that bawdy ordeal, has whipped up a remix of its iconic club music! 'Rock Solid Revitalised' is available now on a bunch of music platforms. Marvellous.

"That's the topic of this meeting now. Existential dread and mortgage rates."

A fortified gate of a fortress at sea fills most of the image. Cannonballs fly from behind it, while a plucky crew of pirates rows a small boat towards it.

We love your chud son. We'd like to feature your chud son in a Fan Art post. Would you permit this highlighting?

Fully respect that! Ultimately just wanted to say thanks for showing Jet Force some love in 2026, it's a personal favourite of the human running the account. Keep well!

Very cute, and we're glad she remains effectively branded when she sits down with a cuppa. Would you mind if we share this in a fan art post?

Two pirates stand proud, one hoisting a large flag that features a yellow chequered pattern on it behind a silhouette of three pirates in a group hug, the other playing the banjo with a big smile on his face.

The corner of a Banjo-Kazooie blanket showing a cute Jinjo among other iconic items from the series, like a backpack, honeycomb and egg.

Photo of the perfect house thanks to its Banjo-Kazooie blanket featuring a sneaking Gruntilda among other iconic imagery from the series, including musical notes, a jigsaw piece and a golden feather. Also in the picture: a cute Banjo-Kazooie soft toy, and a pair of Jinjos among the bookshelves seemingly having existential crises..

The same chair as the previous image, but now the rug is spread over the chair to show the large image of Banjo and Kazooie on it. A straw hat has inexplicably appeared on the chair. The changes in the image have done nothing for the emotional state of the Jinjos.

A Banjo-Kazooie inspired pin badge, which features a little Banjo and Kazooie element that can run around the outside, which is undeniably very cute.

Our chums at @fangamer.com have been at it again, coming up with a pair of handsome Banjo-Kazooie tributes in pin and blanket form. That's right, a full-on blanket! With the swishy fringe and everything. Proper fancy. Go look: fanga.me/r/new-bk

It's a gold-colored blanket with multi-colored tassels and decorated with cute illustrations of characters and items from the game. In this photo the blanket is folded over an armchair and resting on a Banjo-Kazooie plush; Bottles is visible on the part of the blanket we can see.

A photo of two Looking for Gold moving pins, showing that the gold-tinted Banjo and Kazooie part of the pin can move around the edges of the pin, which is illustrated to resemble an area from the game as if viewed with a fisheye lens.
