Markus - Concept Art

Damn, imagine if was really a thing

[kayla1507]

i was wondering if you could explain what this refers to? “I’d guess it was tied to the original Marla/Connor deviant route” it was the last bullet point on one of your unused concept art posts (other unused concept art included marla at the gilmour hotel and the apartment from the hostage originally being daylight).

i feel like i only know the bare minimum when it comes to cut content 😅 i know marla was a cut fourth protagonist, but was there significant interaction between marla and connor? or am i just misinterpreting your comment and you meant that both deviant!marla or deviant!connor had a different route originally?

on that note, is there anywhere you’d recommend looking to find more cut content? every time i feel like i’ve got a good grasp on what was cut, suddenly a new post comes along which casually talks about 40 things i had no idea were cut casually, as if it was common knowledge 😭

tysm for any answer to either question!!

Hi, Anon. :)

The cut Marla-Connor deviant route was a reference to a “hidden” concept artwork by Florent Auguy which shows Markus watching an explosion at CyberLife HQ (”Lime Corporation”), after Marla banished him from Jericho during “Crossroads”. The artist confirmed on his Instagram that Markus is the lone figure standing on top of the bridge.

The file of this artwork is labeled florent-auguy-detroit-city-revolution. This confirms that despite the unusual daylight setting, the destruction of Lime Corporation/CyberLife HQ took place during the revolution.

There’s another artwork to this scene. It shows Connor, with his weapon drawn, facing off against CyberLife security guards in a narrow entryway.

It appears that Marla would’ve offered Deviant Connor the detonator to her bomb, or at least equipped him with explosives after recruiting him — just like North offers the detonator to Markus if he remains leader of Jericho. In another unused concept scene, Marla observes the vehicle containing radioactive cobalt alongside a man who isn’t Markus (possibly Connor).

So there might have been another dead-end path for CyberLife HQ, where instead of breaking into the warehouse, Connor rides up the elevator until the end to level 31 — and if he took the detonator from Marla, he could set off the explosives instead of just immediately being gunned down by the awaiting guards as it happens in canon.

During “Night of the Soul”, there was a third option alongside Demonstration and Revolution called Hostages. There’s no text attached to the option and we know nothing about it, other than it existed. I think it might’ve been an option for Leader Marla’s and Connor’s revolution given its extremist implication and the fact that Connor is also a hostage negotiator. But that’s purely speculation.

As for where to find cut content, my sources are mainly the Detroit: Become Human game files and concept art. A good bunch of cut dialogue and choices were never erased from the files. I've written down a compilation of cut dialogue in this post.

I wrote three bigger meta essays about the scrapped model of Lieutenant Gavin Reed, about the hidden meaning behind Ferndale’s murals and about scrapped options for Kara and Alice to visit the coffee shop and pharmacy if they stayed at the motel in chapter „On the Run“.

@konami-code-ao3 has written a lot about cut content on their tumblr blog and DragonBane0 on YouTube has restored multiple deleted sequences from the game, such as the cut Bad Boys at Pirate Cove, Connor’s cut victory speech and a cut Kamksi/RK900 ending sequence.

It's been one of those weeks days I fear.

This was funnier in my head, but I needed a stupid little project to keep me going with my tougher WIPs. So here we are.

Still fun to draw, and that was the point this time around.

I think I personally enjoy the bottom one a little more but I thought of the concept like 10 minutes after I finally got the colours and lighting to look decent so here's both.

I wish Markus had a chance to have a short interaction with a child model or actually even some random human kid too. The one that was shutting down when he arrived doesn't count, they haven't actually interacted.

The fact that YK series is claimed to be among the most popular but we barely see any of them in Jericho... :(

Markus has this eye color on some concept art. Changed it in game and regret nothing

Reality can be whatever I want and today it’s giving you an android tiefling from Detroit: Become Human and Baldur’s Gate :]]]

As indulgent as this was, I would still like to think this makes SOME sense lore wise? Perhaps the Hells began advancing on their automaton technology for the Blood War, leading to androids nearly indistinguishable from living people. Imagine the weird skin tech from DBH combining with magic and glamours - there’s gotta be some potential there

As for the horns, I wanted them to be kinda elegant - unnaturally pretty maybe - just like the androids in DBH. The LED would be replaced by glowing horn tips which can be broken off and filed down for the deviants that want to appear “normal”. I put a CyberLife symbol in its place simply cuz I was too lazy to find a way to make Connor still look recognizable otherwiselkfjdlsfds mb :,>

Anyway, food for thought :>

Art for Chapter 5, which is up today!

Sixty's life began with a bullet to the head. His body dead, yet his mind never got the message. So he survived. If it could be called that. Sixty may never be fully repaired. Instead, he was faced with the knowledge that his life would forever be cut short. Then Sixty found a light in his darkness. Could he even be allowed this light? After all, he was never supposed to live.
