Description I tried to make some cool fanart about Amata Almodovar and the Lone Wanderer from Fallout 3 videogame. This is my 'Lone Wanderer' Thomas having a moment of despair. Amata is comforting him.

It's tough to be the 'Lone Wanderer'. First he is kicked out of his home, then he loses all his family and is left all alone in the horrible Wasteland. How could anyone mentally survive that? In my version of the story his best friend Amata exits the Vault with him and supports him through all this. I got the idea from the 'Brisa companion' -mod that I use.

I'm learning to paint digitally. This is my third entirely digital painting and the first in which I used any extra layers. I made this with Gimp in 6.2011

If you have any thoughts about how to make this picture better or about Fallout or anything else, please comment.

Hey, some write, some draw, some dance, some murder. Everyone's got a hobby.

Yes, having hobbies is important (except murdering).

Oh, did I say murdering? I meant adultery. Yeah.

Of course not, certainly...lol. Btw I just read the chapters 1 and 2, even though I've already read them and liked them once earlier, but that was long time ago when I didn't yet like Amata a lot. And... I'm ABSOLUTELY loving it! The escape from the vault was very well written, and the characters' actions and behaviour were very credible and humane. But you wrote those chapters long time ago and I guess you've already gotten tons of reviews, so I won't post any more of it here. I'll read on.

Thanks! I always felt like I should go back and revise those first few chapters. I was pretty rough back then.

Why don't you do it then?

Nave-Ninja In reply to Cirandel [2011-07-30 18:06:26 +0000 UTC]

Well, I suppose it's because I'd rather finish the story first before I comb through each chapter, looking for more mistakes and correcting them. Always thought it would keep me busy for a little while after I was done with it.

Ok, I understand. Please take your time and keep up the good work. 10 more to go!

Nave-Ninja In reply to Cirandel [2011-07-31 01:59:08 +0000 UTC]

Yes! 10 after 20. So much planning, so much more that remains even after it is done. The DLC, New Vegas... oi.

Awesome! And kudos for using Gimp! It's a fantastic piece of software and I just can't see the benefit of using Photoshop over it. The shading and detail put into this picture is fantastic!

Cirandel In reply to Miss-Zenith [2011-07-22 12:08:54 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Gimp is a bit clumsy with some things but is very light and flexible and easy to use (+ free) program. I've never even used Photoshop

Miss-Zenith In reply to Cirandel [2011-07-24 04:19:00 +0000 UTC]

I used Photoshop once or twice before a friend of mine told me about gimp. It almost completely scared me away from photo-manipulation and digital art! lol But everyone's different. Anyway, well done on this picture!
