mannn, sometimes i think about the l4d2 / nellis artist I use to look up to before they dropped off the face of the earth in like 2014-2015
I miss ya Basilcakes ToT If somehow / someway see this, i hope you are doing okay.
With that, I shall share my whole stash of L4D2 artwork I could find.
some date from old RP accs i use to run. (2011-2013)
(this post is for archive purposes , all art belongs to basilcakes. I do not have archives of basilcakes other works for fandoms such as homestuck, httyd, sterek, ect due to not being in such fandoms but if asked enough, could try to archive it too /gen)
i also have 2 comics in my files of theirs. sadly i dont have enough room to post them but when i figure out the order of the imgs ill post them in a part two.

Hello, I'm Eden. (They/them) I'm 22 years old and been playing L4D2 since it came out for xbox 360 in 2009 (I was 8 - going on 9). I started shipping Nellis when I was about 11. It was in fact my first ship ever.
I decided to make this lil thing because i've seen some interest in my recent post with my Nellis!cats :P.
In 2013, I hated my human art so I decided to design and make as cats so I could draw them easier. I use to use drawcast on my ipod touch.
I would finally get a more stable style and made more of my fav ship.
Later on that year, my mom gave me her old laptop and I got heavily into animation memes and computer digital art.
my first computer drawing:
My first animation:
I was hooked. A few months later, Little kid me decided to play around with an AU.
I dropped my first banger of the AU on Dec 14, 2013.
2014-2015:
I was obsessed with drawing Nick and Ellis as cats still. I had made many animations and drawings of them.
Before I was diagnose with BPD, I had an episode and created this gem it like to mention :
I had also dropped this banger way before that (important later, I promise)
I ended the year off with a remake of an old Nellis drawing I made in 2013.

2016 - 2017:
At the end of 2015, I got a graphics tablet for Christmas. Legit my second drawing was Ellis!cat.
Sadly in 2016-2017 I was going through alot and also developed a new hyperfixation on fallout 4. I kinda forgot about l4d2 otherthan a few mentions of it here and there. Honorable mentions of art:
2018-2019:
I was going through alot during this time in my life.
I would redesign my most of l4d2!cats completely. I highly preferred natural colors over the other designs.
