hi chelley fans. it is time. i’m so excited for this week i’ve drawn SO much lmao❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
first day is roleswap/cuddles, decided to mix both prompts xP designing core/android chell for this was SO fun!! since her whole shtick is being abnormally stubborn, i thought her purpose would be exactly that. a Persistence Core who never gives up… and hates humans (and Aperture. Obviously), probably a slight bit more than the average robot, to mirror her hatred for AI in the og 😭 in the chelley server we were discussing how core chell would be like and i love the idea of her communicating with beeps and speaking in morse code— something that human Wheatley doesn’t know how to decipher so they do have big problems of miscommunication, even here 💔💔💔 anyways i love them and i will definitely be drawing roleswap chelley and android chell more in the future 🧡
i just cannot get over how expressive wheatley is in portal 2
like, he's a ball. a ball with a big eye. there's no way he shows as many expressions as he does, but you can always see what he's thinking or how he feels just from how that ball looks
Just randomly thought I'd make a plug for my website, animatronicwheatley.com! Are you interested in learning how I've made my 2 Animatronic Wheatleys, want to check out other Wheatleys people across the internet have built, or maybe even build your own? I've got tons of info, pictures, and even a guide for you! Plus, you'll find other interesting Portal-related links and things too. Check it out here: animatronicwheatley.com
I wanted to try and go deeper into Wheatley's possible emotional experiences. We know he had a questionable past which triggers his behaviour patterns in his speech and actions. He bottles things up until he becomes corrupted and lets it all out. When alone, I genuinely think he hides his pain and anger behind a smile that eventually gets to him as he breaks down...
