The first commission I’ve done in….oh…easily 20 years? This was a fun one to do as it includes things from so many great games. One more piece of game art remaining before I turn back to some pieces based on books.
I love GLaDOS as all of you know. I think I’m going to give her a bit more attention for a little while. I love drawing her. So much fine detail! It can drive you nuts!
But this took about 8-9 hours all in all thanks to my perfectionist ways. If one line is off, I can’t handle it. I have to erase everything and start over on that object. Plus, with the amount of graphite on the paper, it loved to smear and get everywhere. I had to end up using another piece of paper to cover my hand and the darkly shaded areas.
I tweaked it just a bit in PSE 9 due to the fact I can’t make up my mind if I want to come back to this later on.
“poison is the coward’s weapon” boo hoo sounds like someone’s sodium channels are easily inhibited
if your deoxyribonucleosides depurinate I just don’t see how that’s myproblem
like, it’s not like I asked your vesicle fusion mediating proteins to cleave and block acetylcholine release… you can’t keep deflecting responsibility for your own actions onto me just because I “put something in your food”
“you’re trying to kill me” yeah well have you tried being less sensitive
glados and wheatley would both do nfts but for very different reasons. wheatley thinks they’re the future but has no clue how they work, needless to say he makes his nft his twitter pfp. glados is trying to grift people on purpose
chell never says a word on social media except sending glados and wheatley screenshots of her right clicking
I only just remembered - I was one of the artists for @stillalivezine, and iirc we were allowed to post our pieces online a year after the zine’s release.
So here are the two pieces I made for it (a year ago)!
been about a year so I can finally post the full piece I did for the @stillalivezine it was a fun lil project and pushed me to draw a background lol :,)
what glados doesn’t mention about the time between her death and resurrection is that she was forced to listen to still alive, over and over again, without a break, for thousands of years
[ID: A (mostly) lineless illustration of GLaDOS, Wheatley, and Chell from Portal 2, with the words “For science. You monster…” in the negative space around the characters. The drawing is lit dramatically with ambient red light, soft blue beams of light coming from the top of the image, and blue rim lighting. Chell is a pale woman with wavy brown hair in a ponytail. Chell is standing in the bottom left of the frame, facing away from the audience, holding a portal gun. GLaDOS is a large white and grey non-humanoid robot with a glowing yellow “eye”, hanging from the ceiling by a mass of thick wires. GLaDOS looms above Chell, looking down at her. A claw arm on the left holds a broken Wheatley, a grey, spherical robot with one large eye, and a claw arm on the right is reaching for Chell. The background is a room with a grey domed roof and a darker grey floor. /END ID]
