Description
Another one of my many Fallout 3 related sketches, which I decided to turn into something decent.Charon shows my character Nikki how to shoot better. Not that my vaultie needs that kind of lessons - she's a born marksman. But I thought that this scene was quite cute
Background is almost nonexistent, but I wanted the drawing to be more or less fast and simple.

*that moment when you want a normal magnum in fallout 3 instead of a scoped version XD*

I still think "gun control means using both hands" is the most valuable tip to begin with. Unless they are training specifically for the crippled-arm-scenario, in which case, please do carry on! ^^)d

Yes. 101 will need some help and our lovely Charon is the best to help.

Fantastic job colouring here! I really like how you've done Charon. I also like both's postures. It's not overly mushy and unrealistic, it's just nice for a sweet undertone. <3

Oh, wow.
Not only is this a great picture that is masterfully executed, but you've managed some great dynamics between these characters.
Also, I don't know how to explain it, but I think you've managed to capture the Fallout 'feel' in this. It looks really, really great.

Wow, that's actually pretty cool! 
Why am I reminded of the "Big Town" quest option of teaching everyone how to shoot? XD

Thanks!
Yeah, Charon probably is cold and emotionless killer, but then once when I was playing and occasionally jumped into an irradiated crater he very timely said "Be careful". After that I believe that there is definitely the other side of him XD

I just want you to know how much your pictures inspire me. I sometimes draw, but writing is really my thing and whenever I see one of your pictures, a million ideas spring to mind. I love everything from the individual hair fibres to the detail on the skin and guns. I appreciate that in this picture you can take it two ways, intimate or accidently intimate. That's what I like about your art, there is always more that meets the eye, or at least more than meets the eye at first. Always, I find myself staring at your pictures for ages trying to glimpse everything contained within them.
I swear I'm not just being a creepy obsessive. You're actually that good. XD

Oh, you comment really touched me!
Though I gotta tell, that I don't always plan any additional meanings to the pictures. Most of the times it just turns out that way (if it does). One of my friends just told me that if I removed the gun, it'd be almost like they are dancing. I never thought of it that way when I was drawing, but damn, he's right!

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
ADORABLE.
I love LWxCharon moments, its so .... cute!♥
I love the way you colour, its FANTASTIC.
Is it easier without using an outline when
drawing? (Personal opinion?)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks!
Yeah, and I love drawing those moments.
I guess it's more or less the same. I just don't like spending a lot of time to make an outline look good, since I just prefer a more realistic style anyway. But every picture begins with some kind of an outline, I just switch off the layer with it when I have filled in all the colors.
But yeah, pictures with an outline take less time, 'coz I don't see a point of making them too realistic.

He looks like he's plotting to sneak a grope HAAA hah....

Who? Charon? No way!
...though who knows what's going on in that head... XD

Nice! Could there be a scene where these two interact with other characters (not shooting, like drinking beer or something)?
Just asking.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Possibly. But I just started drawing pictures with more that just one character on them, and it won't be soon when I dare start drawing more 'crowded' pictures. It's diffcult, you know. And would definitely take too much time. So far I'm content with the two of them.

Allright. Just a suggestion. Uhh, could you cameo/ have an appearence of my character? He's caucasian/white, male, dark brown eyes and blackish hair. Often uses the Assualt Rifle (the mostly wooden one) or the hunting rifle and wears the Merc Adventurer outfit [link] with a shady hat [link]
He's a nice guy, often accidently says the wrong thing, not really a good liar, often too courious than he should be. Often wears his hair long and messy, he ocuasionally grows a soul patch. He has Thanatophobia/the fear of death (and with good reason!). He's often cocky and tries to go up against the Super Mutants when he barely has any ammmo left (this could be trying to get over his phobia). He's the "God of lock picking".
He enjoys getting close and personel in a fight but only when it's a fair fight (which is rare in the Capital Wasteland). He tries to talk out of a fight first, and only fights when it's the only opition left.
Just a suggestion if you do a scene with alot of characters in it.

OMGOMGOMG!!! I Love Charon And i also love Fallout 3 i''ve played it for like 122 hours in total! Really cute pic!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I played it for about 150 hrs... during the first walkthrough last year. Then about 100 more with the second one this year

Your art always make me crave another play at Fallout.

My art makes me want to do that too, but I prefer to draw more art instead
Thanks.

This is such an awesome concept! I can definitely see that happening with a female Vautie and Charon... I mean, her coming out of the Vault, you can't expect her to be quite as seasoned as Charon so I'm sure there's always room to learn even for a talented marksman.
Also, Nikki's profile is really beautiful. And I love Charon's expression and how it looks like he's holding her gently in place.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, that was exactly the idea behind the picture.
I also like how her profile turned out. Now I envy her, why don't I look that way?

Все, я начинаю рисовать по третьему Фоллауту. Это твоя вина, а ну быстро кайся. )
А если серьезно, то меня очень вдохновляют твои работы. Конкретно эта - наичистейшее 'ня'.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Почему-то ни капли не чувствую себя виноватой. 
Я, как ни странно, в последнее время в основном своим собственным воображением вдохновляюсь, ну, помиио самого Фоллаута (в который уже нифига не играю, но продолжаю эксплуатировать как источник вдохновения
Следующая из серии обещает быть еще более 'ня'. Только фиг знает, когда готова будет - скетч чуть ли не с начала месяца лежит, но до покраски никак не дойдет, все время его что-то опережает. ))

Ужас. Никакого сострадания. *маньячно хихикает, контуря работу*
Мне в плане вдохновения помогает пробежка по любимым ресурсам (а-ля "люди рисуют, а ты тут.."), плюс сладкий чай.
Пинок - лучший друг художника. )
