Description
Another drawing!Very serious compared to my other ones, and it's very reminiscent to my other drawing of Chell resting... almost alike, and I didnt really SEE it until i finished this drawing. Blech. So I looked at that drawing and compared the two, and I'm SOOOO glad you can see the difference, I got so much better... haha. so the fact that they're almost in the same position doesnt bother me nearly as much now.
I went a lil overboard with the blood splatter, I was trying to make it so you can tell what happened with the blood trail.
Would this need a censor? I'll put a censor just in case.
Edit: took off censor.

when playing I really did need a moment to recover from turrets. Something about nothing really harming you directly and suddenly you're being shot at and blood is all over the walls. Also since the turrets had adorable voices and where so polite it was hard to think of them as enemies.

that's exactly how I felt. haha!
I'm like, Why are you shooting at me? youre adorable. :knocks over turret:

awww. I will admit I hated then too in the beginning. But they have a charm to them that makes them so cute.

It's rare that anyone portrays what happens when the turrets actually strike. This is a nice reminder of just how dangerous the tests would be in a real life setting.

thank you!
Yeah, besides it being just a game, in real life, if you got hit buy a bullet, youre pretty much incapacitated.

Awwwwwwww... I think You captured the moment perfectly
You got the piont with this concept
Greetings!

thank you.
and hello!

I see this as a reminder of the different between games and reality like getting shot can be shrugged off a relay BIG deal in real life

I had that thought in mind when I was drawing this piece.

If the game had been a bit more realistic as your picture, I would probably die pretty fast...lol

I'm pretty sure in real life, we would never have survived wheatley's maneuvering of the chamber in the beginning of the game. xD!

You do wonder if that, at some points, there was a part of Chell that just desperately wanted to lie down and die rather than hurt and be scared any more. The only thing keeping her going was that tenacity that made her such a poor test subject (according to the book, at least).
π: 0 β©: 1
I also thought about that which is why I drew this.
imo I think tenacity is is a good quality in testing? I'm not sure why it would be something bad.
π: 0 β©: 1
I think that Aperture wanted test subjects that were controllable, predictable and, if required, disposable. Chell's tenacity was linked to the strength of her will which, by definition, made her essentially uncontrollable in the terms Aperture was interested in.
Fanfics that make Cave Johnson out to be a misunderstood good guy always baffle me because he is the one who started that policy and it was people like Caroline who carried it out.
π: 0 β©: 1
I was also thinking that, it's also kind of the base of my would be 3rd comic for chell. but I wont say to much on it in case I actually do it. xD
What I thought about Cave is that he was in it for the money, he tapped into soemthing he never really understood but took advantage of through people who could, because he had the money. it's like the Jurassic park scenario, the guy had money and went into something he had no clue what he was doing, but he was just focusing on making money.

I think it's fantastic! It really shows her hardship, how tough she had to be to get through this and survive. Keep it up!
π: 0 β©: 1
ty so much.
I was reading some fanfiction, and she is always represented as SO tough, nothing can get to her. I drew this picture in mind that she's human and very mortal, and it shows a glimpse of her when she's vulnerable.
omg 5 stars! ty!!!!

(I wanted to leave this comment days ago but for whatever reason it wouldn't let me. Mobile deviantart is meannn.)
Interesting... Very nice. 
I really like the blood effects and Chell's position. Her expression makes her pain obvious. I love it!
I love the drawing's meaning in general. The idea of being injured by an adorable turret has been interesting ever since I saw the blood splatter the wall in the first game. (|||OTL)
The only flaws are that I think a different angle would have been more... I don't know, powerful per se? (for example, have the 'camera' peeking around the corner just slightly, so you can sort of see the turret's adorable face. And maybe angled slightly. I don't know, just thinking out loud here. ouo)
Also, Chell's body proportions aren't perfect. Practice will fix that up, no worries. :3
Also, you forgot to draw the portal gun. Important part of the scene. ^^'
Above all, I really love this. Very inspiring... If I could draw humans I would definitely try a version of my own.

thank you so much!
I'm horrible with backgrounds, I dont think I would've done the angle idea justice. haha.
I'm also getting back into drawing again, I started doing chell fanart... last year on oct maybe? I cant remember. There's alot of stuff I need to fix, but I'm extremely lazy with my drawings, I used to draw my pictures with very wild strokes and leave it like that as 'done'. Haha! like that portal gun, I knew I had to draw it, but the last few times I drew it, it looked horrible. so I decided I wasnt going to draw it. So I'm just going to pretend she dropped it and it fell where it's not in the range of the picture.... yep. it's there, you just cant see it! xD
ty and thx for commenting!

Wow, her expression is great! You can immediately tell what happened.

This looks fantastic! I love it, it's really beautifully done.

Ow! Poor Chell! 
Really nice anatomy and facial expression, though--the first time I saw this, I cringed just a bit. Well-done!

thank you, I wanted to capture her pain of being shot. Those Turrets... even though they are SOOOO adorable, are there to kill you. xD
π: 0 β©: 1
I know! They really threw me for a loop when I first played through. And, you captured her pain quite well.
π: 0 β©: 1
Lol. I always wonder how Chell can just have the shit shot out of her, and she keeps testing like she's not bleeding to death. Then again, she never gives up. Ever!

Tenacity ftw~!

Nooo poor girl
Where is the portal gun? She can't solve that situation without it. D:

π: 0 β©: 1

π: 0 β©: 2

π: 0 β©: 0

π: 0 β©: 1
I felt more sorry for killing the turrets in the first Portal...They say different things..
π: 0 β©: 1
