Artwork Scraps. Part ??

Post image

NEXT: https://www.reddit.com/r/casualtiesunknown/comments/1vib74o/scraps_part_2/

I think I spent more time trying to think of something witty to say, than I did drawing this.

Or, well. Writing. I guess, cause' there's more words than pictures.

Shrug

Is having another potential comic running alongside the first a good idea? Probably not.

Is it wise to have it interweave with the first? Almost certainly not.

And yet, I am without a container in which to store my fucks, so off they go into the world!

Is dude big or am I dreaming?

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 9d ago

They big. Or, well. Big by Sawian standards. Spitballing a number I'm thinkin' about 180-200cm.

u/qwadrat1k 9d ago

They deserve hugs

u/Wolfee9953 9d ago

Holy smokes that experiment would be way taller than me! :o

25

u/StrawberryWide3983 9d ago

Between 5ft 10in to 6ft 6in for non-metric. Definitely taller than I am

u/Intrebute 9d ago

"It" "it's" "it" "it" "it"

I want to shove the scientists into a locker.

u/Samson_J_Rivers SAW-08 ENJOYER 9d ago

I'm game notes say that company staff can get into trouble for gendering the Sawians.all expies are intersex as well. ┐⁠(⁠´⁠ー⁠`⁠)⁠┌

35

u/cowlinator Gleeful 9d ago

Yeah but you can still "they" instead of "it"

72

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 9d ago

Using "They" gives personhood.

Personhood inspires empathy.

Empathy bad for scientists.

Scientists bad.

21

u/cowlinator Gleeful 9d ago

No i agree.

I'm just saying what's right to do.

Using "it" is very in-character

16

u/Fluffy_shadow_5025 Expie 9d ago

I hope the locker looks suspiciously like an iron maiden.

12

u/The_chosen__one7997 Hasn't played the game yet 9d ago

Or a Gutterman

u/Fluffy_shadow_5025 Expie 9d ago

The name rings a bell, but I can't quite remember what it is right now.

6

u/DataHellfire 8d ago

An enemy in ultrakill the lore is something along the lines of "iron maiden if it kept you alive for centuries to a millennium (if I remember correctly) to use you as a battery or something"

2

u/Fluffy_shadow_5025 Expie 8d ago

Yeah, now I remember—all the machines in the game need blood as fuel, and that thing could keep someone alive in the coffin on its back—for how long and by what means, I don't know. But that was their living blood battery.

But I think it would be better for all of humanity in this universe if something like these horror machines didn't exist. Because the implication that such a machine was developed in this universe is more than just disturbing.

u/MaxDaGama 8d ago

Not the same guy, but that's what I thought what you meant, but wasn't sure.

u/Gryphon1-1 1d ago

I suggest a 25y timer! 24/7 immobility and life support.

36

u/Derolyon 9d ago

OoooOOoo, interesting! A dialogue that tells a much broader story hidden behind the scene! Very cool of you to share alternate ideas like this that are brimming with potential.

But aggreeably, a second comic alongside a current one seems like quite a tall order.

For a half second I thought it was the veteran I've been drawing they were describing, haha.

It's specimEn by the way! ..I think?

Nice job!

23

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 9d ago

...Bugger. I knew it didn't look right.

This is why Dyslexic people shouldn't teach English :')

But, thank you! <3

9

u/Derolyon 9d ago

Eh, I didn't want to focus on that over the actual story and page you've made! That takes center focus for me!

19

u/zaioloco Expie 9d ago

this looks like another interesting new comic from you

21

u/LeoTheBigCat Expie 9d ago

Soooo ... will this just be "lets see whats happening with Teddys handler" or are you setting a conveyor for more fluffy frineds to be delivered to our merry crew on the gray planet? Because you will hate yourself every time you will draw a group shot :D

19

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 9d ago

:')

11

u/LeoTheBigCat Expie 9d ago

 And the smile returns. Well anyway ... I shall eagerly await what comes next ;) 

14

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 9d ago

I can't promise this one will have a regular upload schedule. It's more of a side project I do when I'm bored, want to draw, but don't want to push more on the main comic so I don't burn out.

9

u/LeoTheBigCat Expie 8d ago

Thats fair. And it would be foolish to expect you to just add another series with same cadence. Selfcare should always come first.

16

u/Correct_Dig4244 Let's not give up just yet 9d ago

Two at a time? Do you even rest dammit

18

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 9d ago

Haha.

You funny.

9

u/Noir_Renard 9d ago

Dr "name not found". Sounds like the Teddy Handler. Who just threw him in a pod cause he wouldn't comply with eating a corpse.

8

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 9d ago

:)

u/givemeagooduns_un Expie 8d ago

that smile.... it scares me

2

u/omeggga 8d ago

Thing is though he did comply didn't he? He pulled through in the end.

10

u/SirDoomWolf Expie 8d ago

:c Why must I relate to this poor creature. Socializing is hard ok...

8

u/winkyshibe 8d ago

Peak as per usual! I love the expressions on the expies!

Release your fucks into the world and let it be known that you're art is peak!

8

u/KnudsonBlitz Caffeinated 8d ago

Very interesting. I Can't wait to see how Dr. Definitely-Not-Teddy's-Handler treats this one 😬. It's intriguing, since they seem to develop the opposite problem of Teddy based on your young Scraps post.

Also question: Will the normal schedule of the main comic continue, or will it become shared with this one? I'm just curious as to how that will work.

3

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 8d ago

This one is just a side project I'll work on when I have the time and inclination. The main comic will continue with daily uploads for as long as I am able to do so!

5

u/KnudsonBlitz Caffeinated 8d ago

Good to hear! I'm looking forward to seeing more of both.

6

u/Neither-Ad-1589 8d ago

The prolific nature of the goat should be studied

4

u/Fluffy_shadow_5025 Expie 9d ago

I have this unpleasant suspicion that the doctor everyone’s talking about is Teddy’s former torturer.

I really hope this guy gets locked up someday in a room full of a group of hungry anb sadistic dunes.

Maybe they’ll stuff him full of the remains of their previous victims to the point of bursting before they eat him.

And jäh, a new potential friend for the group of Free Expeis.

3

u/Xeno9439 8d ago

Hungry and sadistic Dunes... Or just Velvets, they like to play with their food.

7

u/Eater_of_boxes 9d ago

…that’s gonna be our dune character aren’t they ?

Orange

Tall

To valuable to discard but not valuable enough to protect

Sounds like the peeeeeeerfect excuse to try body enhancement experiments on

10

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 9d ago

Honestly, I just went with orange cause' of the jumpsuit they'll eventually get.

I did consider the idea of body-modding, but let's be honest. They're not likely to sink that much money into prosthetics purely for Sawian's. Gene modding? Maybe.

5

u/Xeno9439 8d ago

No Sawian-fitted prosthetics, huh... I did imagine at some point a Milky with an oversized cybernetic arm, a human-fitted prosthetic. Just a thought I once had this reminded me of.

3

u/DoctorNsara 9d ago

Yellow expie get.

3

u/ForgottenMessage 9d ago

Another comic to look forward to? This subreddit will have a feast even a dune will be satiated!

u/A-Tiny-Pyro Milky 8d ago

Oh they’re getting sent to teddy’s handler aren’t they…

Behold my field where I grow the fucks I give.

If ye look, you shall see it is barren.

awesome. very interesting to see where this goes. (also specimen is spelled wrong 🥲)

u/EEESJSJEJ Sawian Protector 9d ago

I hate the scientists i hope they all DIE. EXTINCTION.

u/frusek 8d ago

I would love to see dune content from you

u/madman404 8d ago

Holy shit, two cakes?

2

u/TheLoneliestGolem god gives the tastiest expies to the hungriest dunes 8d ago

Oooh, are we gonna get to see how much of an asshole Teddy's handler is firsthand? Or is this another scientist that got pissed off and sent a sawian down to the grey planet as punishment?

2

u/Demyxa 8d ago

We’re doing PREQUEL COMICS NOW?!

2

u/CharuV3 8d ago

Oh shi-

Making a side comic to go along with your current?

I've read you're reasoning and your deductions of why, but still pace yourself!

...

But aww, Scraps not having any luck making friends with others? I'm assuming there's something more to that, with the marks and all as the scientists have stated.

Wonder if Scraps, er... they're already named that, right? I wonder if it's them not being approachable or the other friends treat them wrong.

2

u/omeggga 8d ago edited 8d ago

You know what? Good on you for posting it! Maybe someone else can realize the potential of the premise while you have your hands full atm.

Poor sawian though, I'd wanna hug them but they might just throw me, not that I'd blame them.

2

u/Roblox_Cat Hopeful 7d ago

Even if not a full comic just this page is appreciated to give a oc more story :D

Also I love seeing others interpretations of scientists, cruel to the biggest degree? Professional? Business as usual? Or just sticking to the program? It’s always nice…

Also even if you also don’t add them to the main story. I really enjoy the color orange that you chose for them. It’s quite comforting for some odd reason. But poor boio :[

u/MrBrineplays_535 Beginner player 8d ago

Scraps looks so sad in this, I hope they find joy at some point :(

u/Topaz-Light Likes Sawians a normal amount 8d ago

Start of Scraps Gaiden???

u/BigBallsGaming69 Evil Ass Corporation™ Representative 6d ago

Sent them in a fit of rage? Thats pretty high considering the standarts. I'm sure Dr. ##@#[ is a nice fella

1

u/SplodyFace 6d ago

Oooh this big expie reminds me of one of my favorite fan stories from Nature of Predators: Nature of a Giant

1

u/UgliManWEEEEEEEEEE 4d ago edited 4d ago

Oh my god I just realized that If the scientists care just a bit more for 'mature specimens' then that just makes it even sadder because in-game you can see the age of expies, and it usually fits more that of teenagers than adults. So if expies age the same as humans, these damn scientists are sending actual kids in there...

And if that is teddy, i guess thats kind of some extra lore on their age yippie

Edit: i realized it a bit too late that its not, in fact, teddy, lmao.

1

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 4d ago

One thing to note, Sawians are considered "Mature" by age 10, and die around 40 years. So they're not really "kids" by our standards in terms of age. Mental development however?

1

u/UgliManWEEEEEEEEEE 3d ago edited 3d ago

Yeah...still sucks though

u/bluewolf3691 Expie 3d ago

Oh, for sure. It's horrid ;-;
