Description
Characters (c) Valve.So once I figured out humanizing the mechanical characters of Portal was a thing, I wanted to give it a shot with my favorite character, Wheatley.
For someone that's terrible at drawing movement, deciding to draw someone being sucked into space was quite an ambitious undertaking. But I got an image in my head for this, and decided to give it a go. I don't think it turned out half-bad, if I do say so myself.
**EDIT** Fuck me, I just realized you can see the image of the page behind this one in my sketchbook... while I'm impressed with my scanner's capability, that's slightly annoying.... This version will be leaving us soon....

You know, the 'ghost' images from your sketchbook's next page really added to the picture for me. It's like Wheater's life is flashing before his eyes- or is it Chell's memories of him? Is she seeing the last spark of goodness in his corrupted mind, or is he realizing just how wrong he's been?
It's just.... I believe the internet term of now is 'so many feels'? That pretty much sums it up, in my honest opinion.
Epic art.

I.... really like that explanation. I like it a lot. I've never thought of it that way, but now that you mention it.... Suddenly this picture became so much more emotional than I'd intended it to be. Thank you!

'Sokay! I'm glad I could... do whatever it is I did, I guess.

Thank you very much! I always work harder on Chell's expressions than anyone else's, because she doesn't have any words to flavor them with. So it makes me happy to know I did well. Thank you!

Practice, practice, practice. Force yourself out of your comfort zone; that's what I did with this.

My god, you drew Chell exceptionally well.

Thank you very much!
I was rather pleased with how Chell turned out -- I'm normally terrible with profile views, but she was remarkably cooperative when it came to drawing her.
I'm glad you liked it! Thank you again!

Aww, thank you! I was afraid they'd be too stiff... but I'm glad you like them!
