A WIP of my chapter pages for my fanfic about my Courier Six, Cadmus (story unpolished for now, nowhere near ready to share it)

Despite the title, he never goes to the Sierra Madre (in this timeline, at least)

I might change this in the future, but I like the basic concept-this was inspired by that broken doll challenge that does the rounds in art communities from time to time

This isn't a happy chapter, or generally a happy story until much later in the post game canon arc, but there are happy moments and lessons and hard truths to be learned along the way

Also I'll be adding a trigger warning for the implied drug use there

[geaibleu89]

Feels like I wasted too much of my time on this to not end up posting it (30+ hours 😭), so here is a redesign of my Sole Survivor/Raider/Overboss OC, Daniel Garcia (you can really tell where I started to give up on this one, it was a real drag near the end)

He's a giant piece of shit and the opposite side of the coin for my OC and other Sole Survivor, Charlie (they meet in my Legion AU), and while Charlie does get physically and mentally messed up by being thrust into an almost alien future, Daniel gives into the simmering madness that Charlie fights, taking over the Institute and using it to rebuild the Commonwealth for the Raiders of Nuka World

Mild trigger warning for implied drug use-felt appropriate for the world's biggest piece of shit to be smoking shit 😆

[geaibleu89]

Some AU stuff, featuring my OCs-Francisco (Cadmus in canon, this AU is if the Legion never kidnapped him), Wyatt (Francisco's father) and Eliana, Francisco's cousin/older sister figure

Fun fact: Wyatt is a direct descendant of the Chosen One/Vault Dweller, whose descendants ended up in New Caanan, so he also has a link to the New Caananites. During the Legion attack on his nomadic group, Wyatt was brutally attacked by Joshua Graham after refusing to relinquish Eliana and Francisco to the Legion marauders-in canon, he dies along with his wife, but in this AU, he survives and flees with many survivors, ending up in the Boneyard, and has a desire for revenge for what was done to him and what was taken from him

Bonus: a small and very suspicious four year old Francisco with his cousin

Also: Eliana and Francisco have a mutation that make their eyes glow, and the mutation gave their group the name 'Nightstalker Eyes'-members can either have glowing amber, blue or mixed eyes (Eliana and Francisco's mothers were sisters with heterochromia)

Little reference for my alt canon Sole Survivor, Charlie-he needed a new one as his design has changed a little bit in the past year since I last made his reference (and I might add to this one over time)

EDIT: came back to edit this because the formatting is all fucked up, that's what I get for posting right before bed I guess 😅

Some info about him under the cut, as well as a picture of him as he travelled through Vault 111, trigger warning for blood and injury

I can't imagine being thawed out like a frozen tv dinner does great things to the human body-Charlie was temporarily deaf and blind when he began to thaw out, and ended up staying in the Vault for two days before getting those senses back, albeit not to a hundred percent until nearly a month later. He remains deaf in his left ear.

🔹Canon Nate was his cousin, who he grew up with from 12 onwards in Boston, due to unlivable circumstances regarding his parents (Nate's father and Charlie's father are brothers).

🔹Charlie is a Psyker, and a particularly sensitive one-as a man of science, however, he loathes this side of himself. His parents also thought he was possessed as he often saw things no one else could as a result of these abilities, and from the age of 5 to 11, Charlie underwent many exorcisms. He was also born with a caul over his face, a sign of good luck in some cultures, but for Charlie? Not so much.

🔹Served in Anchorage-he saw some frontline action, but was snatched up for the robotics division. This assignment last two years, until a horrific accident almost killed him, gave him second and third degree burns that covered much of his body, PTSD and a hefty settlement from the military for reasons I'll elaborate on in the future.

🔹Minuteman General, former Brotherhood of Steel scribe. The BoS essentially kidnapped him after discovering his prewar work in robotics, wanting him to work on Liberty Prime. They threatened his friends to make him stay, and he defected after the events of 'Blind Betrayal'. He is very pro synth and generally accepting of any life forms with sentience.

🔹His birth name is Charles, and he was born in Morgantown, WV, but he hates being called Charles-just call him Charlie.

🔹Charlie is 6'4", weighs 189lbs and has green eyes and blonde hair. He has extensive scarring covering most of his left side. He is also left handed, so losing the arm wasn't as great a loss to him as people think it was. He's a big guy but abhors violence, and uses his bulk as a last resort-he once used it to intimidate Maxson, and ending up punching him in the face during the events of 'Blind Betrayal', who, so far, is the only person to push him this far.

🔹He's also on the spectrum, and waking up in the Wasteland really messed him up for a long time, physically and mentally.

🔹Lost his arm in Far Harbor while undercover with the Children of Atom, and as it occurred while leaning up DiMA's mess, he blames him for this. He designed and partially made his own prosthetic, assisted by Faraday.

🔹Counts MacCready, Curie and Nick among his friend. Deacon is basically his dad friend, and Nick is his one and only-he confessed to him he liked him while they were in Far Harbor, and they've been together ever since. Nick likes to make jokes about having his own personal mechanic, as Charlie does a lot of his repairs, staring not long after they met.

🔹Technically a distant relative of Arcade Gannon, via his brother Michael (a 76er who was briefly forced into the Enclave to endure medical experimentation at the hands of my other 76er, Andrew). Arcade and Charlie meet way down the line in both canon and two of my AUs.

🔹There is a nearly 17 year age gap between Charlie and Michael, who was an accidental pregnancy, and taken away almost immediately after his birth. Michael was put in foster care, and Charlie was tracked down by the system in 2076. They work on having Charlie adopting Michael, only for Michael to be selected for Vault 76 before Charlie could officially gain custody of him, and they never saw each other again, and the the bombs dropped. Two of my AUs feature them either ending up in Vault 111 or Vault 76 together.

It was my birthday today, so I drew the one OC that shares a birth month (but not a birthday) with me-Charlie, my first Fallout OC and canon divergent Sole Survivor

He looks like he's not vibing, but he's actually just overwhelmed because he hasn't had a birthday party since he was five, and his new friends knew him well enough to throw a small gathering to not push him away from the enjoyment of it, and make him Nuka Quantum pie, given his obsession with all things Nuka Cola (and robots-the gifts contain new tools for him to work on the various robots that come his way)

He's the type of guy that many would describe as a gentle giant, and probably the most kind out of all my OCs, and I really should draw him more

(this is the brush I used for the paper chain, I only modified it by drawing the lines over it because there was no way I was drawing a whole ass paper chain)

Did a little something for my good friend @missdsantiart 's birthday today, and drew her patrol ranger OC, Orson Redd-this is the second time I've draw him and I think he's pretty great

[geaibleu89]

Enclave Arcade I drew for a mini AU I started posting on my Bluesky

TLDR: the Enclave came across the Big MT not long before Arcade was born and he grew up there and became an odd, overblown caricature of his canon self in an attempt to hide the immense guilt of growing up in a fascist cult

'but why didn't he just run away?'

Remember those coils in the Courier's head? The ones that would zap you unconscious if you crossed the barrier? Yeah, he has those in his head too, and they also cause that weird pacifist effect if he even thinks of violence against himself 😬

[geaibleu89]

this was supposed to be a quick warm up ;-;

[geaibleu89]

Mocked up what I think an NCR ID might look like for my NCR medic, Ellery (I've never been military so I don't know how accurate this would be)

(NCR logo taken from Fallout Wiki)

also drew a full body reference for him while I was at it

He's not really much of a smiler around the time this was taken-this is a few months post Second Battle for Hoover Dam (with a NCR/Independent win), and he was dealing with PTSD as well as finding out the mysterious Courier he once helped was an ex-Legionary wanted by the NCR (my ex-Legion oc, Cadmus), all of which severely messed his head and started opening him up the idea that the world is not as black and white as he thought...which he didn't like

[geaibleu89]

Also from the same thing-some line art featuring my Courier/former legionary, Cadmus, and Joshua Graham

To say they dislike each other would be an understatement

For context, I write Joshua as being more unhinged in my canon, hidden under a very thin veneer of religious zealotry-even the sanest of people don't remain 'normal' after 30 odd years of committing the most vile of crimes, and IMO, he's still the Legate under all that

[geaibleu89]

A little Follows-Chalk from a thing I've been working on for the last few months (on and off depending on my mood for this mini project)

I hadn't drawn him before this so I was pleasantly surprised at how well he came out 🤷‍♂️

(this is also a WIP so some aspects of his design might change)

[geaibleu89]

Ellery, post Second Battle for Hoover Dam (he got stabbed in the face, and the metaphorically stabbed in the back, oops)

his eye is kind of gross under that bandage, a Legionary almost blinded him but Ellery basically flattened the guy and narrowly avoided being blinded

Gross eye under the cut

Michael (76er, right) and Charlie (canon divergent Sole Survivor, left), April 2077

I literally just put a filter on a screencap for the background 😅

Lore below:

-Charlie went to live with his aunt and uncle in Boston at age 11, after being removed from the home. His uncle was his father's brother.

-Michael was an accidental baby, which is why there's a 17 year age gap

-Charlie didn't find out about Michael until a childhood friend in Morgantown reached out to him and told him about a possible sibling in foster care

-He was in the process of being evaluated to formally adopt Michael (he was medically discharged from the military, which hindered things) and was on the home stretch...then the war happened

-Charlie travelled to West Virginia with Nick to find out what happened to Michael, and while he never saw him again, he was at least able to get some closure

-Michael tried to travel to Boston, but it was still so irradiated in some places that it was a no go, and he wasn't able to find out what happened to Charlie

-They both went into their respective Vaults with pictures of each other, Michael more than Charlie, who was only able to grab a few as he rushed to Vault 111

-Michael always talked about the fun things he did with Charlie, in order to keep what little memories he had of him alive, and his biggest regret was being unable to find him

-They both treasured the time they had together

-Synth! Shaun looks almost like Michael did as a child, which in turn also reminds Charlie of his cousin Nate, who looked very similar as a child too (Charlie takes after his mother in terms of looks, but a lot of the men on the Bress side tend to have dark hair and olive complexions)

I put one of those plushes in my camp because I HC that Charlie got it for Michael (Charlie secretly thought it was creepy, but got it for Michael because that was what he wanted), and it was one of the few things Michael was able to take with him into the Vault, and later, out into the Wasteland

Supplying my own demand for Beckett fan art with a doodle of my own

I know it's not Xmas anymore but it's still the holidays and I wanted to draw him in this because I put him in this outfit for Xmas in my camp

[geaibleu89]

Christmas pic featuring my NCR OC and his family

Erica (Ellery's older sister), Lisey (Ellery's wife), Anthony (Ellery's son)

Ellery with his daughter, Emma

[geaibleu89]

He's very dad

[WIP]

Ellery is my NCR OC, and often spends months at a time away from his family as a combat medic-he signed up for ten years, knowing the payoff and training at the end would be worth it at the end and help his family in the long run

He isn't one of those fathers that makes the wife do everything (for one, she'd kick his ass), but he just isn't like that anyway, and is a very hands on dad and did his best to make sure his family lived comfortably

His sister also helps out a bunch when he's away, and the family in general is very close knit and supportive

Not sure when this'll be finished as it features three others not posted here, but I want to post the full thing by Christmas 🤷‍♂️

Bio for my Overboss OC, Daniel-it's his birthday today and he's another OC who needed un updated design 🤷🏻‍♂️

He's not a nice person
