Title: The Road Less Travelled
Pairing: Arthur/Eames
Rating: PG
Notes: It’s been ABSOLUTELY brilliant working with butterflythread. I was so happy when she claimed my art and I love the direction she took my original prompt, it was like the clash of a bad TV program ‘WHEN GAME GEEKS COLIDE’. She’s been so patient with me, especially when I was unable to be around as much as I wanted. Thank you Nellie, you’re awesome, and I hope we get to team up more. I also want to thank platina and weatherfront for being amazing cheerleaders when it came to the art. Because it’s based on the game Fallout 3, I went completely comic book style with the new art to reflect that universe more, it was so much fun. The original prompt was for a much darker idea, so I’m glad we went lighter.

Thank you so much for looking, and I hope you like it. beware of the huge pictures I have under the cut, may take time to load.

I HAVE JUST WOKEN UP, MIND. BUT OHMYYYYGOOODDDDD LUCCCCYYYY!! WHY ARE YOU ANGSTING? THIS IS SO AMAZING AND AWESOME AND FABULOUSSSS??? I DON'T UNDERSTANDDDDDD.

Really really love what you did with the lighting in all of these. And and and how either A or E is always looking out of the pictureee, aaaaaaaaa~ ♥ AND DOGGY DOGGY DOGGGY OHMYGODD THE DOGGGG~ <3 <3 <3 I cannot wait to read Nellie's fic. *_____* Also, I really like the Nuka-Cola sign for some reason. =D DELICIOUS AND REFRESHING. ♥

OH LUCY YOU ARE A SILLY DUCK, THESE ARE SOOOO BEAUTIFUL. ♥ ♥ ♥

I love the colouring here! Your style is such an inspiration, always.

I noticed that in all of these, one of them is looking directly at the viewer -- eye contact with the viewer is something I don't normally see in fanart and the effect is really novel! Almost a little unsettling, in a way? It's a good effect for Fallout pics, the universe is unsettling. :D

Also really loving the costume designs here! It's difficult for me to keep my designs coherent and consistent. :D

LUCY YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT <333

Oh god this art is just so so so gorgeous. I'm just utterly in love with your style and just everything about this. I love how detailed these all are and the colors and the characters and the dog! and just all of it. I'm in awe, it really is just absolutely gorgeous.

*SPEECHLESS*

The dog flinching at the gunfight makes my heart hurt! Ugh, how are you so amazing??

These are absolutely amazing. I am seriously in awe of your talent ♥

I can't deal with all this detail I think me and all this gorgeous detail need to take some time-out and just stare lovingly at each other for a little bit. I guess the colours can come, too

OHMYGOD the picture with Arthur shushing Eames is just really really hot, excuse me I think I need to take off some layers of clothing because it is making me burn from the inside out asklddfj Arthur's pants riding low and Eames' shirt riding up to give us a peek of his tattoo ♥

Mostly I love how you drew their ungelled, windswept hair -- especially Eames', I want to pet him!

The composition is beautiful in the original piece, the textures and color palette look amazing. Also, DOGGIEEEE ♥

How does everything you draw become so TOUCHABLE. *____* The folds of fabric and their glorious beautiful hair and their BODIES and omg that puppy...!!! There isn't a single corner or plane of color thrown away, you use every bit of space to its best advantage and it makes everything so wonderfully cinematic. For god's sake you are brilliant, Lucy.

Oh my god. Oh my god. This is me getting up and doing some kind of flaily victory dance and basically being made ten kinds of amazing drunk happy by your art. I desperately love the one of them behind the dumpster with Arthur's rifle and the dog being UNHAPPY [aww, poor doggie, omg what happened], and the one of Arthur shushing Eames as they're on the backseat. You draw them both so well, from the hair to the clothes and the tats and DOGGY. :D:D:D So vibrant and real! LOVELOVELOVE. You are a star.

these are amazing!! so much detail and prettiness ahhh. :)

ps hi new friend!! :D I love your journal title thingy - yay florence and the machine!! I'm seeing them in may-juneish LOL (I forgot the date orz)

wha! this is great *____* you're amazing...

OMG Lucy! SO BEAUTIFUL! I love the BGs, I love the colors, I love the scars and the guns and Eames' fingerless gloves, I love it ALL, ok? The details, they get me every time. The tattoo on Eames' hip, the dogtags around the dog's neck, does the scarf on Arthur's neck migrate to Eames in that second picture? The textures! This is all so amazing and really all I can do is stare. <333333

This is amazing. The original piece was incredible, I love the idea of the triptych and the whole end of the world atmosphere.

The new pieces are gorgeous. I love all the small details: Eames's tattoos, the drawing on his shirt, the torn cushion...and the dog is a beauty.

And I JUST HAPPEN to be listening to the Fallout 3 soundtrack XDDDDDDDDD

Your illustrations are so wonderful I cannot say what has already been said XD. I love the scarves and the DOG and the DOG HAS A SCARF IT IS TOO CUTE XD AND AND DOGTAGS! <3

Your colours are really something. I am totally in love~

I cannot wait to read the fic <3

Aasdgsdgh!awsd! I loved this art back in the claiming post, I love it still. And the additional art too. Gorgeous, gorgeous work. ♥___♥

*hugs you Lyd*

Thanks for the help luv XD

Cerise <3 Things didn't go quite according to plan, so I was stressing over them. I know I shouldn't, but I'm a worrier XD BUT THANK YOU, I HAVE NO WORDS BRILL ENOUGH TO SAY HOW HAPPY I AM YOU LIKE IT BUT HAVE A MASSIVE FLAILY HUG INSTEAD *glomps*

I was worried it was all too green, but the games have that sickly colouring so I rolled with it. Hee, the looking at us started with the original pic and Arthur, I thought it would be fun to let people into teh story like that. I'm a little in love with Dogtag, she was so much fun to draw, bless her grumpy self XD

*laughs* I'm often told that I'm a giant silly *hugs*

I'm glad you do as it was the colouring that was giving me a hard time. Awww thanks so much, It makes me blush a lot but it makes me happy to know I can inspire others, because you all inspire me <3

*nods* It was an idea I had because of the game, and the fact you never quite see your characters face. For this I felt it would be fun to have them know they were somehow being watched. Breaking the 4th wall is something I always find a hoot, such as when comic book characters or TV stars suddenly start talking to the audience.

It is hard, there were some moments when I forgot who was wearing what lol

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING SO DARLING <3 I think you guys are drilling that into my incredibly thick head *hugs you*

Thank you ever so much hun *hugs* I tend to bung in a lot of detail for you guys because your always terribly kind to me. I love giving you things to note, it's a little thank you present from me <3

*SQUISHES YOU*

Dogtag will be okay, she just doesn't like gunfire getting too close to her dad XD

Ps I saw the lovely red_rahl will be doing the Unicorn fic art for you (can't wait to see it <3), would there be anything else you'd like me to draw for you hun?

Thank you so much, it's too kind of you to say so *hugs*

*laughs* Do be sure to bring it back sometime soon, I'll miss it :) It's sure to appreciate the attention and love as much as it's owner <3

Thank you ;D
