A Fallout sketch dump from my sketchbook because my therapist says drawing is good for my mental health or whatever ❤️😂😄

Just taking the robot out for a stroll in the Glowing Sea.

Decided to do some cleanup in Karl's Fallout 4 game, including revamping his bot-bot and straightening out where and how his resources were stashed. It's a rather old playthrough that got shelved due to the "repair object" spam bug, but thanks to this most excellent modder's comment on reddit, I was able to fix the problem.

My newest playthrough got hit by the same bug, hence the research session which finally led to the answer. The new game is fixed too and stars a genderbend of Ita, though I'm not sure if that run is sticking for longer than a half thought-out fling. If it takes hold properly, I'll be posting settlement builds for "him" at some point as well.

How could you be in love with… well, a machine?

Bethesda are cowards. We should be able to romance original robot Curie.

Happy birthday to the worst thing I’ve ever made!

DANSE WE HAVE A NEW DAUGHTER :D

Whenever I load up Fallout 4 I always think "Oh boy, I can't wait to see Ada Again!" and I am never ever going to escape the love I feel for robot (Adjacent) characters.

combed through the underground robobrain production facility lookin for something important until i'd totally convinced myself i'd been misled.

i began to think perhaps these really are just prisoners who ghoulified from..... environmental deep-dirt radiation. in observation tanks. and on gurney conveyor belts. in a radiation lab.

checked every obscure corner before giving up. i backtracked to take an obligatory glance into a small chamber i skipped, simply labelled ROBOBRAIN R&D

which is a room devoted to admiring the mythical prewar ghoul aquarium. there are also deathclaw x-rays in this room, which make zero sense outside of the read that this is a secret, undocumented mutation laboratory

not only does this cement many of my long-standing suspicions, but it suggests, quite sensibly, that the robobrain project functioned as a cover for ghoul experiments.

it also dramatically recontextualizes the text of the dungeon itself, where destroying evidence & killing witnesses was a common topic. all the correspondence is evasive, and a few of the research notes hit as euphemistic. they wanted to leave zero evidence of these creatures... but ultimately neglected to incinerate them

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. i might have to cover this one on video. very elegant.

Going to start getting into the habit of posting more WIP and building my confidence up (and make me feel more accountable to finish stuff I start tbh) hims my little robot baby🥺

Automatron Yes Man!!! (And Victor <3)

Writing, left to right, top to bottom:

Well, that’s creepy

Only… slightly better

Approaching “normal”

Still a little uncanny, but mostly indistinguishable (to Marigold’s disappointment)

‘Flirty comment about being bare’

Ignoring him

Studying Victor to see how his face works

One hand bigger than other

Face is rounder than I originally thought

More lore under cut!

I love the idea of synth yes man but I got to thinking about how robco would probably have a version of their own in a box somewhere:

So in my courier’s (Marigold) story she goes the Wild Card route, meaning sadly she has to take out Victor and Jane in order to put Yes Man in the mainframe. However, Yes Man finds the prototype automatron bodies for Victor and Jane, which have their own separate copies of their original coding, meaning they have none of the memories of their securitron counterparts. They’re still hostile upon activation and realizing Mr. House is no longer around, but are able to be reasoned with.

There’s no body for Yes Man so Marigold, who has 100 science, reverse-engineers the automatrons using Victor and Jane, with Yes Man’s help. Together they make more and more advanced versions until Yes Man can properly be co-ruler of the strip, and go under peoples’ noses as a robot for better diplomacy in the instances where a giant robot with a grenade launcher hinders more than helps.

man, I want the dlc companions to interact. They wouldn't get along with eachother it would be so funny.

[possumcollege]

Thinking about my queer little apocalypse again. The Man nukes the world, I crawl out of a hole to find my kid and avenge my dead husband, but first I gotta start dating these robot ladies.

Ada is not only the best female companion in Fallout 4 but a contender for a Top 3 companion out of the whole roster including DLCs. I'm not joking.
