Description -I don't...even.

To be honest, there was no intention of sharing this to begin with. But after working on it all morning as a passive "vent art" and quite frankly laughing it off afterwards, I figured -why not share the lulz?

I'm not pointing fingers or saying what's "right or wrong" (despite some snarky remarks in my general direction) but this is quite frankly the best example of the Left4Dead fandom subcategories. The Sparkle!Hunter is self-explanatory, and then there's someone like me...who literally spent weeks studying the medical history behind infection and all it's causes/stages/symptoms. And YET, I'm pegged on drawing my poor Cobalt "incorrectly".

I don't care at this point, but I absolutely could not pass up the chance to draw him again...let alone make the other one that I've dubbed "GLITTRBUTT" when I made layer folders. XD It was ironically fun to design, even if only as a generic example.

Think of it this way: "If you can't laugh at your fandom, you're hardly a fan."

This made me laugh upon seeing it. XD I'd love to see a sparklezombie actually last against survivors who are armed with all kinds of weapons. Glittrbutt there looks more like a survivor attempting to pass themselves off as a hunter in my opinion. Cobalt doesn't seem to be falling for it though.

Guh, that came across badly. Meant that I'd be far more terrified to be pounced by Cobalt than GLITTRBUTT. He seems far fiercer!

KingGiantess [2011-01-03 04:35:14 +0000 UTC]

AJKFHDAG your Hunter actually looks like a Hunter! Also, caution tape = yes. Wouldn't want to have Cobalt pounce on me. .___.

I'm a medical student and thus made my Infected as accurately... dead and sick as possible--the decomposing body bloating and bile from every facial orifice. 8] That, and because I just really like Boomers.

Q.Q im a Sparkle! Hunter? XD i view it as a character that represents something.
my Hunter look like me because she is an infected version of me.

which look sorta like that, but with more blood and a G.I.R. jacket.
the I Smoker thing also applies to me because my boyfriend's character is a Smoker
but i also read a lot of the L4D history and infection stuff

Cobalt seems way more hunter-y, though. Hell, I could even imagine seeing him in-game. (FFF If only.)

LilMissKiwi [2010-11-28 01:16:59 +0000 UTC]

pfff lol you are completely right. I love your hunter by the way, the different kind of tape on him is a nice touch and very creative. I'll be honest my hunter, griffin isn't very dark and bloody but I try so he doensn't look like a peachy pansy(cause he's a ginger) or your example on the left thereXD Like he'll have rips in his clothes and blood on him after a meal, but not all the time. For some reason the one on the left scares me a littleXD

Nanuka In reply to LilMissKiwi [2010-11-28 01:28:59 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! It was originally "caution" tape but I got really tired of having to write that creatively. After poking around, I don't think you nearly qualify for the consensus I'm always seeing. Atleast you are DRAWING your own and not just recolouring pixel bases. :T Haha. I may keep Glitterbutt for the sake of lulz later!

lol, no problem. And yeah I understand seeing alot of recoloured pixel bases, I hate seeing so many of those when it comes to lfd. lol And glitterbuttXD thats a great name that would bring on even more lulz. Just to keep him around for that would make loads of sense.

Oh lawl 'Nuka. That is beautiful. I personally enjoy mocking the things I love, so this is gold!

But people are giving you a hard time with Cobalt? PFFT! He's so great. Each time I see your pictures of him it makes me want to make my own hunter :C I love how his pants look too!

:c Uh-huh. At first it got on my nerves, but after drawing this I just lol and move on.

anotherclichejrocker [2010-11-27 22:17:07 +0000 UTC]

That is rather disturbing. I'm actually more afraid of 'glittrbutt' than I am of Cobalt. Is that wrong? Sparkles are okay for some things but compared to the love that you put into Colbat a character like 'GLITTRBUTT' just looks like a lame attempt to make a left4dead character something its not which really isnt a fan character at all. Great job Nanuka!

I would be too! Though I'm sure you'd be blinded by the bishie sparkles and prospect of neon glowing clothing immediately. Thanks, I was amazed at how hard it was for me to make Glittrbutt since I did honestly think about what would look best...erm, worst? xD

Hantavirologist [2010-11-27 22:09:56 +0000 UTC]

Haha thats the worst part of making these isn't it? You NEVER know if you got the symptos right. My Dogbrain is as dumb as a post but is it from the infection? Could be? I feel like I'm trying to be a know-it-all but then I just go crazy with it and act all 'fuck you I'll make the symptoms the way I want'. I wouldn't worry about people getting on MY ass for it. Theres no way of drawing your own character 'incorrectly'.

Nanuka In reply to Hantavirologist [2010-11-28 01:23:27 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I figured I was just being OCD about everything after spending hours at a time studying direct medical termonology and symptoms in an effort to correspond correctly. I suppose I was just baffled that those who draw/enjoy the ones to the left were bothered by my interpretation. :U

I definitely agree with "If you can't laugh at your fandom, you're hardly a fan." Also, Cobalt is one of the few Hunter OCs that isn't "cutsy" but actually looks like it could rip out your bowels. Just the way a Hunter SHOULD be.

"who literally spent weeks studying the medical history behind infection and all it's causes/stages/symptoms. And YET, I'm pegged on drawing my poor Cobalt "incorrectly"." - Same here. I'm still experimenting with my OCs, like pangs of hunger, emotional levels, and a ton of other things.

For example, Rose, my Huntress, has the problem of having mouthbleeds at times, due to the infection mutating her mouth/teeth. Claire, my Witch, has a tooth larger than all the others, due to the infection messing up on the mutational part. That, and it didn't help her alter ego either...

Nevertheless, I can't agree with you more.

And to top it off, your Hunter's black/yellow tape is awesome, I might give my Huntress something similar.

Nanuka In reply to Flandres-Agent [2010-11-28 01:16:05 +0000 UTC]

Exactly! My Cobalt has various issues since he got a diluted strain from kissing his ex-g/f. So he slowly became blind before removing his eyes. And the sniper wound in the ribs actually ruins his stamina & creates a different low-key scream when attacking (other info here) . His tape actually started as the "caution" type, but I got tired of writing that everytime. xD

Flandres-Agent In reply to Nanuka [2010-11-28 01:19:48 +0000 UTC]

Another thing that annoys me is that they make their L4D OCs eat survivors... Since when did raging infected humans eat other humans?

But yeah;

Nanuka In reply to Flandres-Agent [2010-11-28 01:31:15 +0000 UTC]

That is a good point, not once do you really ever see the process of eating. It's always just horrendously maiming/killing and then just stopping. :V I wish more people understood that the "zombies" in L4D are simply really sick people, they don't want BRAAAINZZZ or anything. They're just very very aggressive in various stages.

shewolf51 In reply to Nanuka [2010-11-28 05:24:52 +0000 UTC]

Sorry to butt in, but I have to admit that I'm sadly guilty of that. >_< I always thought that it would be because humans were really the only source of possible food since it's likely that the healthy people would've ransacked and looted anything edible in all of the chaos. But now that you mention it, I don't actually recall reading any info about the Infected eating people.

Flandres-Agent In reply to Nanuka [2010-11-28 01:44:28 +0000 UTC]

Indeed, and agreed. All Infected show some sort of aggressiveness, except maybe the Witch, she's still a mystery to me.

I totally want to do that meme about 8 facts of an OC. :V
