HELLO HELLO I HAVE SHITTY (unfinished) ART!!

Yeesh, he is one ugly muthafucka...
...i love him
Okay read on if u wanna hear about lore n stuff if not byeee!
Wow you're still here? I'm sorry π
Okay so this is Galanos!! He is an anthro (not a furry shut up) albino wels catfish that cant actually talk. I'm now realising I forgot to add his voice box thingy. Whoops! Well it's unfinished I'll add it tommorow and colour him in.
Anyway so Galanos can't talk, how does he communicate? Well he has a small radio on a collar around his neck, think Steve from cloudy with a chance of meatballs, that he uses, whatever he wants to say, the radio says for him in a text-to-speech voice.
I've made some changes to how a normal wels catfish looks, such as how I've made the dorsal fin (which is usually small and far back) go along the whole length of his body, from his head to the tip of his tail. I like to imagine it kinda looks like hair? Sorta? Okay not really but I just thought he looked a bit boring without it. He's got webbed hands and feet because I thought they looked cool, lol. Also like I said, he's an albino wels catfish, I'll put some pics of what they look like underneath here, but Galanos is more of an orangey yellow colour with an almost white belly, like the first picture.



The clothes he's wearing are meant to be waders, why is a fish wearing waders you might ask? Well I just thought they looked cool π Also they're based off this image \/ (why is it so low quality help)

The world he lives in is pretty Fallout-esque, being post-apocalyptic and radiation filled. Part of the reason I wanted him to be a wels catfish (apart from the fact that they're one of my favourite species of fish) is that there are actually large wels catfish living in the cooling pond at Chernobyl, which I thought was pretty cool when I found that out.
Although sorry to burst everyone's bubble but they aren't radioactive mutants, they're perfectly healthy and thriving, their large size is perfectly natural, being pretty small for some other specimens caught!!
This was what inspired me to have them live in this world, as I thought, what if he wasn't affected by radiation at all? Like a nuclear blast could go off nearby, and as long as the blast or fire didn't kill them, then he'd be perfectly fine. In fact I've been considering having radioactive particles extend his life, making it so that he can't die of old age, he could obviously still be shot and die.
One last thing before I go to sleep, that might shock some people... his parents.......
ARE ALIVE!!
That's right, he hasn't had to watch his parents die, although they never knew their biological parents. He was adopted by two very lovely mothers, one a Victorian goth, and the other more alt/ punk (I wanted to give them styles idk why)


Final little things before I go to sleep, he's objectum, bisexual, polyamourus and transmasc (just self-projecting onto him π) and is more of a lone wanderer, roaming around, looting abandoned buildings and corpses, the usual. He carries around a satchel to carry food, drink and useful items he finds.

idk how many people gaf but here's some of my WALL-E art from 2021 lol


looking at objectum tags on other platforms and i see a bunch of people going "if you think you're objectum you're a sicko para freak and you need to die for having an attraction that isn't human you are everything that is wrong with the world your identity is just a mental illness" and i go back to tumblr

Erm, hey chat! New oc?? Yes!! Meet Edward, why is he called that? Idk i thought it was cute and suits it.
Edward is a robot comprised of scavenged bits of technology, he's got a cd player with a screen for a head, a microwave for a torso and 3 mechanical arms you'd find in a factory for arms, that have been fitted with ball-joints for extra manoeuvrability. The third arm is located on his back so when he needs to use his main hands to do stuff, it's got another arm to balance on (which is also the strongest arm). He's also actually pretty small, like you could carry him without much effort.
He was made by Galanos, another oc (sorta a persona) who i still need to properly design, who is an anthro albino wels catfish guy with a few mechanical body parts.
Edward acts as a voice for Galanos, as he can't actually talk, using a notepad and pencil or sign language to communicate. The reason Galanos is able to use Edward to communicate is cos Edward can hear Galanos' thoughts, dont ask how cos idk either π€. I'll put references down β¬οΈthereβ¬οΈ



I put Spud here cos the inspiration came from how they walk on just arms, i've seen a few other characters that do this but Spud is the only one i can remember right now.
Okay enough yapping now, i'll redraw them tomorrow in more poses to get a better idea of their body in a 3D space, not just this flat drawing, toodle pip! π

its a perfect fit!







The IHNMAIMS radio drama monologue comic is finally done after - checks calendar - FOUR MONTHS? If you spot any style inconsistencies, that's why haha.
Anyways, I love a good disembodied, analogue cluster, cable mismanagement horror AM :)
