I love this man too much. I'd say send help, but it's too late for me. Save yourself.

This was stupidly fun to doodle, hope you like him, thanks for the inspiration! Have a hair version too, I couldn't decide between the two 😎

part of me feels like deacon would love weird makeup, like he’ll be fucking around hq and all of a sudden he has the brightest eyeshadow gradient and like rand dots on his face yknow, i actually don’t think it would look that bad

Earlier this year (2024), I found this video while idly scrolling through YouTube. I watched it over and over, fascinated. I finally decided to look on AO3, a site I knew about but had never visited.

I discovered "para bellum" by @lilacretrograde. I discovered "Wrong Kind of Preacher, Wrong Kind of Church" and "Call Me Angel Again" by @odd-ball-out. "White Lies and Fireflies" by @aviatorfics. So many more, but these are the first ones, the ones I remember the best, the ones that made me finally understand the phrase "reading this changed my brain chemistry."

After a childhood spent writing and drawing (original things as well as what would now be called fanfiction and fanart), I hadn't done any writing at all in years. I hadn't drawn anything in years. Decades.

I started writing "Cat in a Hot Tin Suit". I came back to Tumblr, and found @hpysprkl and @lordsammichsilas and @hancocksbestgirl and so, so many others.

After literal decades of nothing, I've been writing almost every single day since late June. At least a few hundred words, sometimes thousands. I've started drawing again.

I started posting my silly, self-indulgent, self-insert fanfic, and to my complete and utter shock, other people actually liked it. Knowing that people have bookmarked it, have subscribed to it, is terrifying, humbling, and invigorating.

Your stories, your art, inspired me to get back to who I was before I shut myself away years ago. Rediscovering my creativity has brought me so much joy, so much pride in my own accomplishments, and brought people into my life that I never would have met otherwise (okay also the Halloween Boop Wars of 2024, but mostly the art).

So...yeah. Fallout brought me back to life. You all brought me back to life. Thank you. Love you.

I'm totally fine and normal, why do you ask?

"Welcome to the, uh, Great Green Jewel. You'll totally love it here."

Worked on this WAY too long. Seriously, fuck this armor. I hate it (he still looks kinda hot in it tho, but that's just cause he looks hot in everything). I give up and it's good enough.

Used a screenshot from @freerainhl as reference.

I wrote a little bit of Fallout 3 stuff a few weeks back (Alex going back to 101 for Trouble On The Homefront) and just couldn't get this image of him out of my head and I needed to make it Real.

Lex has filled out since Butch last saw him, put on a good twenty pounds of muscle at least, and the worn white t-shirt that stretches over his chest and biceps does nothing to hide it. Part of him wonders if Lex wore it for him, wanted to show off maybe. Part of him wonders if Lex thought about him at all in the last six months. But more than the muscle he's added, or the tan of his skin, or the shagginess of his hair (which he clearly hasn't bothered to cut since he left the vault), there's change in him that Butch isn't sure he likes. There's a hardness to Alex Rousseau now, beyond just physical strength. It's there in the cold gleam in his eyes, the sharp set of his jaw. A boy left home, what feels like forever ago; a man stands in front of him now, tall and strong and chiseled as if from marble.

Ready at a minute's notice.

Loved @gardening--tools headcanon about Preston having a Minutemen tat so I gave him one here.

“You know I do like long, lazy, dull days, right?”

Oh, just kill me now.

A MacDoodle, because y’all seem to love him. I love him too, just not as much as I love a certain bald spy.

Also, I do not enjoy drawing this outfit. In the end I realized I forgot his watch, and I do not care. There’s just too much going on there.

Fun fact: I share a birthday with Roger Hargreaves, the creator/writer/illustrator of the Mr. Men and Little Miss books. So to celebrate that, I decided to turn beloved Fallout characters into silly little doodles. Enjoy. Or don’t. I had my fun either way 😁

If anyone is interested in having an equally silly doodle done of an OC, hit up my DMs.

Oh look, I arted! Commission for the wonderful @tragicpond of sole survivor Thea with her bestest bestie Deacon ❤️ I can't help but giggle and kick my feet every time I look at them.

[hpysprkl]

He’s so babygirl.

[hpysprkl]

Did someone ask for slutty Deacon?

No, nobody did, but you're getting it anyway.

He's finally DONE, baby! Sexy holiday pinup Deacon (inspired by @deathclaw-for-cutie's sexy holiday pinup Hancock).

And if you've enjoyed the art I've made this year and want to drop a tip in my tip jar, I made a thing for that (and I have a couple gifts for you - a nice high-res printable of this art, and a mobile wallpaper edition as well!).

Very much looking forward to another year of drawing my beautiful bald wife (okay, and maybe also sometimes other people) and I hope you are, too!
