Description
Characters; Top middle is Wheatley, left is GLaDOS, centre is Chell, then turrets on either side, and at the bottom is an edgeless safety cube.I could go on for ages saying how great Portal 2 is, but you just have to play the game to understand.
Made with Gimp and bamboo fun tablet, drawn at 4800x7200pixels, C&C welcome thanks!
The process I took: [link]

Whats particularly great are the little nods to the end of the game. I won't say anything for risk of spoilers, but people who've played it know exactly what I mean.

This is awesome. I wish I could favourite it twice. The composition is great, making perfect use of GLaDOS' "lean", the moon, dynamic square motifs, etc..
Props for using the Gimp too (it's my raster weapon of choice as well).
Did your 15 hours include any preliminary sketches/idea work, or is that conception-to-completion?
Two comments: As you said earlier, the moon could do with more pronounced features, and also one of the turrets' antenna is on the wrong side :b

Haha, thank you, I like using GIMP and not many people think it's capable of much, how wrong they are...
No I had allot of different ideas before this one presented itself, I'll put my process up in the next few days with some detail close ups .
Thanks I think this picture is only around 80% complete so it should look better when I'm finished. Thanks for pointing out the antenna, I would never have noticed
Cheers for the awesome comment

Looking forward to seeing some of the piece's history
I wouldn't have noticed either - I think I drew too many turrets in the lead up to Portal 2 >_<
No worries on the comment. You totally earned it.

The only thing missing (mostly because I'm a nerd and mostly because I'm joking) is the Space Core. XD

Perfect! I like the fact that you used the new Wheatly's face then compared to the begining of the game. And the game is sheer awesomeness!

You mad this with GIMP.

Indeed it is!
And yes I make all my stuff with GIMP, it works the same way Photoshop does.

I know it works the same way photoshop does... I use it myself, even if I really don't know what I'm doing. It's just I've been told GIMP isn't as powerful as photoshop.

You forgot the little speech bubble besides GLaDOS saying "Oh, it's YOU." and another next to one of the turrets saying "Could you come over - here?"
Nice work.
Can't wait to get back home from work practice in Ireland, to get my hands on my pre-ordered copy, and do some co-op with my friend.
I am going each time I think about Portal 2.

I was going to add quotes next to all the characters, Glados was saying "you monster" one of the turrets were saying "I'm different" and the other one saying "me too" but I got stumped when it came to wheately because all of his memorable parts in the game he talks in paragraphs and not a couple of words.
Thanks for the comment

I think GLaDOS would be better saying "Oh, it's YOU.", since that could have a better effect on the viewer. In my oppinion at least.
I haven't had a chance to play Portal 2 yet, since I'm in Ireland on work practice. Just. one. more.week!
Oh an Wheatley could ne saying "Let's do another test!" Or something like that. I watched a little snippet of gameplay, and there he seemed mad keen on you doing his test chambers.
And you're welcome.

Thank you very much, the game inspired me and I tried to capture some of the best parts the game has to offer. And that was hard considering the whole game is awesome.
