Im home from my vacation!! felt like this had to follow day 10 or else it wouldn’t make sense, A better drawing will be posted tomorrow, sorry to make u wait 😄
krinkels on nexus making atp units first, and then laughs about auditor saying 'piss color'. serious lore only.
transcript
"'I got a quick question, did the A.A.H.W. create A.T.P. units or was it the NEXUS Core?' See I haven't really, like, felt out that lore yet, um... like- like, um… I think, in my heart of hearts, as the patterns in my mind have tried to remind me desperately, I think NEXUS had A.T.P. and Soldats first and then the A.A.H.W. was just like 'Yo, I'll take those but like, y'know, clean 'em off a little bit cause like, I'm gonna be putting my own S-3LF energy into it.'"
[…] [Laughing] "Yeah, he saw those- he saw those fucking, uh, uh- uhh, Engineer, and he was like [As Auditor] "Eh, I like it, but can ya make it yella?" or maybe it had to be yellow, I don't know... "Now make them piss color.""
[Laughs] "Auditor just walks into the towers like his arms on his fucking hips like, "Ah, nice units ya got here, ya make 'em in piss flavor?" And then they capitulate because Auditor can, y'know, conjure money and power, so."
I wanted to make their design stand out, so I created them from scratch; they're not loadouts you can find in-game. Plus a little bit of character description because I'm dying to talk about them and their roles in the story (*wearing a shirt that says "please talk to me about my fic"*).
Now I can finally draw them often!!
Somewhat goofy clothing sheets under the cut↓↓↓
I tried to design them the way their silhouettes and colors stay recognisable, as if they were meant to be used in-game later, to not to break the gameplay rules. I also wanted them to look as tf2-like as possible, I studied the hell out of the 3d models and on the last three I guess it started to turn out decent. Drawing Spy is still pain though.
Or maybe it's just that I'm not attracted to the majority of the mercs visually?? That's why they don't look satisfying?? Lmao. Need to adjust them to my tastes later.
I'm not sure I can exactly explain my design choices with these... How exactly they correlate to their characters. There is something, but I went for it fully intuitively.

For BLU scout I went for the softer, rounder oversized clothing to accent his insecurity and the need to shield himself for comfort. It still needed to shape his torso (game rules) but his hood and sleeves do the deed. There is also a strict rule in how to draw his freckles: they look more like moles and there's 7 or 8 of them. You won't believe me if I say this is lore relevant.
For RED Scout, I went with the more aggressive military style. I think I literally took this jacket design from a real military one. There should be an accent on his heavy relations with the army. His clothes are tight because he still likes himself.
RED Sniper is giving hunter vibes, forest type. BLU Sniper looks more like a fisher or a winter hunter. Not sure what deeper meaning I could assign to this except that BLU Sniper was heavily referenced on Ogata Hyakunosuke.
BLU Spy should radiate tiredness. His look is quite unkept for his standards but at this point it doesn't matter anymore. The turtleneck and the boots are special requests from @/gentlesurgeryenjoyer (xoxo)
BLU Medic just looks so freaking cool in a black shirt. It was a vision. I'm not sure if black and white accents mean anything in terms of which side those characters are on. I also wanted to separate him from another famous horror witnessing Medic.
And Miss Pauling was the most satisfying to draw, it was a gift to draw her last... I gave her pants because it's getting cold outside at the time when the story takes place. I also find it very impractical to go killing job in a pencil skirt, I'm sorry. She probably also wears snickers underneath.
And also thanks to @nightly-headache for helping out and assistance!
Idk if this comic made sense but I was thinking of Scout going to the Medic’s yearly health evaluations and finding the BLU Spy’s head there. And that spy unintentionally revealing that the red spy is Scout’s father.
I’m still intending to turn this into a fic but here’s the comic version for now. (Btw the fic probably won’t have the same dialogue as this one LOL)
i think he would be really disoriented once they put his head back on his body. or once he died and respawned. he just wouldn't feel right anymore like his body wasnt his own. like his hands were too big and his feet were too small. he keeps burning himself on his cigarettes and bumping clumsily into the side of tables. the other mercs laugh when he trips over his own legs. he doesn't get what's so funny. he's in pain, and they laugh more as he tries to get back up. it makes him want to go run into the base's meat freezer and hide. at this point, the cold is more comforting than anything. at least he couldn't be poked or prodded in the fridge. at least he's safe from ridicule in the freezer. the cold made the cigarette burns hurt less too anyway.
my commissions | my kofi
finally made ref sheets for my tf2 freak ocs cause i doubt anyone knows what they. actually are from the drawings ive posted about them
yes i made them exclusively to have vegemite sandvich freaks to ship . yes i made fake lore thats way too in depth for them literally being vegemite sandvich freaks (this isnt even half of it) . yes i have been thinking about them ever since i made them a month ago literally down to the day
i don’t have very deliberate headcanons for a lot of freaks, but spyper is an exception because he used to be one of my very favorites :) he still honestly kind of is
i didn’t know how to include it, but another headcanon about spyper i have is that he has traits and habits that are “leftover” from the spy and sniper he used to be. his right pointer finger is twitchy and fidgety (a trait from sniper), and he chews on wheat as a substitute for cigarettes (sniper wasn’t a smoker, but spy evidently was and spyper gets nagging feelings of needing a smoke still).
the RED medic that sewed spyper together honestly did a shoddy job, since spyper still feels and thinks his body is rejecting his head. he often feels disembodied/disconnected in his own body. yknow… being two separate people grafted together and forming a third, new subconscious and everything. wicked stuff
and i don’t have a lot on RED spyper for now, but i do know that i think he’s a LOT more ‘stable’ of a hybrid than (BLU) spyper is. i wonder what his deal is
what is your eye color. what is your favorite color. what is the color that appears most frequently in your wardrobe. what color is your favorite blanket. what color is your water bottle.
first is green I think second is like blue orange or broze (can't rlly decide) third one is I think black, fourth is white and last is also pink (it's a hello kitty one)
