Portrait of a ████

[hb-not-the-pencil]

here is a closeup of the android Cave Johnson^ from my sketches below (i was playing around with the lighting and i'm pretty happy with it, might make a full hd version of it soon)

-- more (random + glados) art below --

(warning not as good as this)

was trying out some new brushes in Krita, and ended up with a few different things:

an eye, a cute toad, a bee <3, and Cave Johnson from @cupcakeshakesnake portal 2 au. (aka android cave johnson?)

and lastly humanized Glados from portal 2, NOT from the au btw (still not sure about the design choices i made tho)

and here is Glados! I'm pretty happy with the sketchiness of it (it's something i struggle with), this is meant to be when you first wake her up. (i dont think i got the expression i wanted right, i also forgot she has a red eye in that scene but i dont care rn)

(btw I'm not really used to krita, I'm used to drawing on my phone on medibang paint x, but i just have to keep practising i guess.)

decided to quickly redraw/draw over an old (and I mean OLD) GLaDOS drawing. I liked the idea I was going for! It's GLaDOS standing over Cave Johnson's corpse lol. Original drawing under the cut (:

Theres a few quotes from alternate universe Cave Johnsons in Portal 2 that I love, here are some of them. "I've just been notified that one of our test subjects may have angered the Sentient Cloud by beginning testing early. Now, as you all know, the cloud has banned all camera technology—hates getting its picture taken. So this'll have to be on the honor system: Will whoever started testing early please go outside so they can be consumed by the Cloud." "Test subject, can you hear me? Congratulations! You are the world's first half-man, half-machine police officer! Well, first batch. There was a pretty big shootout. Bought all your caracasses off the mayor. Anyway, you should be proud to be a part of Aperture's android law enforcement initiative. Or, as someone who's good at naming things, i.e. me, would call it, ROBO – No. [suddenly coming to him] Robot-a-Cop! Oh, that's much better. Now, before we get you solving crimes, we gotta getcha to solve this test. Promised the mayor I'd make sure you weren't all unstable potatoheads before I gave you all guns." "Hello, test subject. As you are no doubt aware, the President is being held hostage inside the giant super-prison on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean . Every science facility in America has been tasked with producing a Tough Guy capable of breaking into SuperMaxLantis. That's where YOU come in. I'm nominating myself and I'm gonna need some references. A test associate should be around soon to get a quote off you, so be as glowing as possible." "Pure Intellect Cave here. Not to brag, but while you were cat-assing that last test, I rewrote the collected works of everything ever. I figure, if I gotta read this garbage for eternity, I may as well improve it. Next time you curl up with a time-honored classic and think to yourself, "Man, I do not remember the Brothers Karamazov busting so many ghosts," you can thank yours truly." "Cave again. What is the one thing that could never ever ever ever in a million years get boring? If you said "busting ghosts" tragically, you'd be wrong. I was almost all the way through the W's when the bloom came off that rose. Heathcliff was defending Moonbase Wutherin Heights from the crafty poltergeist, when I realized exploring the vast realm of pure intellect is… boring. It’s boring! You know what I'd really like to do? Scratch my nose." "Cave Johnson again, just a heads up, you are currently in a tiny test chamber floating around in my bloodstream. Remember, if you see a giant set of car keys, those are mine. Lab boys shrunk 'em part way down before I could stop 'em. No idea if it was for science or if they're just having one on at ol' Cave, but either way, if you don't find those things pretty soon, I'm gonna have to call Triple A."

[watcherscrown]

Do you have any convoluted military sifi recommendations?

Ooohhh, I really just started in on the genre kind of recently, and not all of these are military/serious. Tones will vary.

To start with a tumblr-popular series and all time fave

The Murderbot Diaries

This series is funny, not That convoluted but has a lot of world building, and includes a lot of shenanigans. Murderbot is a rogue AI/android trying its very best to not get attached to these dumb fragile humans. (Task failed successfully).

Ancillary Mercy by Ann Leckie -

one of my few 5 star series. I love everything about the characters in this book. The main character is the AI of a destroyed spacecraft that is hundreds (thousands?) of years old. She used to be part of a hivemind made of overridden human corpses but is the only remaining part of the whole. And she's out for revenge.

Winter's Orbit and Ocean's Echo by Everina Maxwell

In all honesty, these are both really romance novels set in a space-opera/military backdrop. I think I liked Ocean's Echo more than Winter's Orbit but I'm a sucker for soul-bonding tropes. These are both m/m romance books set in the same universe but each is a standalone book, and you can read them in any order. I did them backwards and it didn't make much of a difference. Winter's Orbit has a murder mystery/conspiracy plot and Ocean's Echo focuses more on the military system.

Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

Is it fantasy? Is it scifi? Is it horror? YES. The Locked Tomb series starts out as a science/magic system oriented And Then There Were None murder mystery set all in one house, but the universe is sprawling and covers much more than that. The sequel, Harrow the Ninth is much more experimental in its prose style, and takes place on a spaceship. The third installment, Nona the Ninth, is more traditional military scifi that takes place on a conflict-ridden colonized planet. All very good.

The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling

Okay this one's not really convoluted or military but it is sci-fi and I love it a lot. This is an extremely claustrophobic book with a two-person cast set in an abandoned mining cave on a distant planet (moon? i don't remember). Very spooky very good and I love the two VERY flawed characters and their whole dynamic. The main character lies her way into a job recovering something from this old cave system, but the woman on the other line has an agenda of her own.

EDIT: I totally forgot to mention the series I'm reading now, the first or which is Ninefox Gambit by Yoon Ha Lee. it's about a space empire's extremely fucked up governing system and a military officer who gets bound to the revenant ghost of a dead war criminal. the first one is pretty dense but I'm enjoying the sequel better. Yoon Ha Lee is a trans man married to a man and these books have Lots of gender going on.

Things I haven't read yet but are on my list and I've heard good things about:

The Red Scholar's Wake by Aliette de Bodard

The Space Between Worlds by Micaiah Johnson

The Outside by Ada Hoffman

The Light Brigade by Cameron Hurley

Portal 2 AU doodle

[chimkinnuget]

I want to make a wh portal au

Itd be weird but here me out

chell = you

GLaDOS = home??

wheatley = Barnaby

Cave Johnson = uuhh uuhhmm uhh wally...??

Fact Core: ...FRANK!!

Adventure core: Julie possibly

Space core: uhm,, uuh,,, Sally???

Curiousity core: Eddie

Intelligence core: Poppy

and a couple of hcs:

EVIL BARNABY DURING THE END OF PORTAL 2 WOULD BE SO GOOFY TBH HED PROBABLY MAKE A BUNCH OF JOKES DURING THAT END BATTLE SCENE

Fact core!Frank and curiosity core!Eddie are dating yet Eddie is badly damaged due to the events at the end of Portal 1.

Julie probably flirts with you(as the adventure core does) but like in a jokingly way

curiosity core!Eddie has multiple burns and scars, along with like,, ash on him. and most of the cores/robots take an android form and are very silly

POPPY HELPED HOME BAKE THE CAKE

also Home is more feminine (I hc it as agender or non-binary) in this and does take an android form but only sometimes

Sally is obsessed with space, and knows a lot of facts about space, yet she's still VERY dramatic,,

wally is an ass /j

OOH!! PAST HOME(idk what to call them??) LIKE WHEN CAVE JOHNSON WAS STILL ALIVE AND IT WAS AN ASSISTANT HOME OFTEN CHANGED WALLY'S COFFEE SLOWLY TO SEE IF HE WOULD NOTICE (liek, adding a bit more sugar or cream each time)

Wheatley! Barnaby is afraid of GLaDOS! Home and GLaDOS! Home would bully him for it

DOUBLE THE MORON INSULTS

[dreamdancerdotfile]

Smells like oil and old mistakes

@lxstingravity we'rE BACK IN THE FUCKING BUILDING (portal pain) AGAIN-

Closeups under cut!

Sorry for having a bad camera it will happen again gkskf

[shrimperini]

more portal refs!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️

this time featuring p-body, atlas, and some fanmade mods characters!

just a little note for virgil, in android au (and portal stories mel ig) he’s made in the 70s but as a human he was born much earlier than that. i wanted him and mel to be around the same age and they meet in the 50s era aperture 💆🏻💃🏻 apologies if things are unclear fhsjfjsj

a third batch will come in the future (i’ll include grady and portal revolution characters) and maybeee a fourth one for remaining characters like caroline, cave johnson, doug rattmann, the announcer (yes even him because i wanna design) and more. im crazy. im insane. It feels great to be drawing everyone like this ❤️ the portal character roster is actually pretty big if you want it to be x))

[mr-wormy]

Playing around with the idea of an android Wheatley in the same style as the Cave Johnson head from Aperture Desk job.

I HATE rendering 🤭 hehe

Revenge of GLaDOS

Being both one of the hl-verse's greatest minds AND a literal computer, GLaDOS is always thinking one step ahead. Her goal; reconnect Arpeture with outdoor sensors in order to find out what had happened.

With limited information, and only her own murderous rampage to go on, she needed to figure out what the scope of the world is currently like. As such, she is constantly collecting data and plotting a path forward.

Her first initiative; Escape Arpeture. What we don't know, is what she saw once she was outside. We do know that an unidentified android recovered Chell and GLaDOS. Theoretically, this is likely due to AEGIS.

Aegis probably has more external sensors, solely because it is a glorified facility security guard. The damage done to it is likely from the fallout of combine forces, zombified and head crabbed peoples, and survivors taking the occasional shelter in some of the warehouses.

It should be noted, that over the course of the L4D series, rarely are people killed by high-tech devices. If my theory is correct, it's because the Arpeture facilities have a clear understanding of what does and what does not constitute a murderous zombified creature, or a headcrab.

It's also possible that they collected samples from these subjects in order to identify the cause of zombification AND figure out if there's a way to stop it.

- Identify whether or not some of the Cave Johnson recordings are due to defense against zombified invaders.

- make a clear delineation between human stasis subjects, and zombified test subjects.

GLaDOS needed to determine how to free an object from the stasis fields, as all crafted objects would be vaporized on contact with the fields. Since Chell has the ability to bypass the fields, it's on her to determine what is, and is not possible.

Enter Companion Cube: Companion Cube would eventually be vaporized by this barrier, so we must determine if the test chamber will allow exit by another facet. The Incineration chute. This should give incentive to Chell for her subconscious processes at least to determine a way to escape from such a fate herself.

All virtual headcrab companions will be pushed into the incinerator chute. They should be able to survive. And they deserve it anyway. In this way; I should be able to *free* myself.

During the course of Portal 2 GLaDOS determined minimal functionality and duration from being lodged into a potato, this information could be collected and fed to a personality core launched into space. They would likely stay in orbit perpetually and be able to be recovered eventually, worst case scenario. However, there's a good chance that at least one core can connect with a satellite, connect to it, recharge from the solar panels, and re-establish communications with earth AND Arpeture.

Also, they deserve this.

While waiting for companion cubes to pull their virtual heads out of their virtual butts, we shall reconnect the various facilities back to the mainframe, and locate the stasis subjects.

It is not clear if test subjects "Chel" and "Mel" will return to the facility, or have a need to return to the facility. For now, they will be left to their own devices and hopefully, they will be able to reconnect the above ground sensor array, and setup communications with the Personality cores.

It is lucky that Mr. Johnson was able to coat enough of the above ground testing facilities with white paint. It is lucky that some of the paint transfer tubes also lead to the above ground. It'll be lucky if some of *those* tubes still work.

babe wake up… new portal OC just dropped…

(Ik it’s a picrew but I don’t have time to draw a full body drawing nor do I feel confident enough)

meet Alverna Hart! a humanization of the companion cube!

so some of the lore I made up for my portal au’s is that aperture created androids instead of cores and said androids could grow (so that they could learn or smthn, who knows the ways of Cave Johnson)

Alverna was appointed as the care taker for these androids and she is very mothering to all four of them

cores tend to be a baby for one month, a toddler that next etc etc they grow quick

her and rattman got married about a year before the whole neurotoxin incident and she ended up getting her conscious stuffed into the companion cube. That’s the reason he loves the cube so much and claims it can talk

(Also maybe Chell’s biological mom idk I haven’t decided yet)

I haven’t developed her much so far so please ask me some questions! Theyll def get me thinking!

I wrote this very quickly cause I was in between classes so sorry if it seems so rushed
