Description I’ve been watching some gameplay of Portal 2 and was astonished by how clever the game is. Watching those and all the designs in the game has inspired me to try drawing the robots, and along came this idea of applying those designs onto my character, Paradoxia.

The designs were mainly taken from Atlas’ and P-Body’s (The Co-op droids) structure, with the complicated-looking arms and legs joints. The usual crab-like right hand of her was replaced by a Portal gun, of course. Her leg is designed to look similar to the long fall boots Chell (the protagonist) wears. The only part that really doesn’t get much redesign is her head. I first intended to have an Aperture Laboratory logo somewhere on her, but, since the good ‘ol Paradoxia doesn’t like to be branded by anyone, I scrapped that idea.

I first sketched it out very messily and planned to just give it a sketchy coloring, but turned out I had a lot of fun, and the result here is quite very nice within nice working time, I guess --an hour and a half.

This is just an alternate and non-canon design for Paradoxia, so I’m not jointing her storyline to the game, of course, but I really like this design, so we might be seeing more of this look on her in the future. She looks good in white, don’t you think?

I’ve never actually played Portal or any of the Half-Life titles, but I think I should look for Portal 2.^^

I seriously need to play both Portal games... seriously... (Crap! More games to add to my ever-expanding list. Xo)

Anyway, Paradoxia looks fantastic! One of the cooler looks I've seen for her, if you ask me. I especially love how you can see the glowing blue lights through her head.

Does she have that same voice?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

PsuC In reply to Powerwing-Amber [2011-05-24 01:47:34 +0000 UTC]

Yep, a really clever game like that shouldn't be missed. And, don't go watch the gameplay/soundtrack/ read anything that are spoilers to the game like I did, it was a big mistake I couldn't correct. XP

To admit, I also think this look is cooler than her original one. The blue lights seen through her head is one part I didn't alter from my own design of her.^^ Thank you very much!

The same voice as who? Herself, or HAL 9000---I mean GLaDOS. To my idea, she'd have a bit of an electronic echo but speaks in the right tone and accent, in her original form, at least.

Powerwing-Amber In reply to PsuC [2011-05-24 21:44:05 +0000 UTC]

I won't. I actually had to skip reading one of my favorite comics today because it contained major spoilers, apparently.

You're welcome! ^^ I thought that perhaps there were more of those lights in this form compared to her original design.

GLaDOS. I think I heard the voice in a commercial and I thought it was cute. (it sounded more female to me in the commercial) I guess I should have specified in asking if Paradoxia only had that voice in this form, not her normal form.

PsuC In reply to Powerwing-Amber [2011-05-25 02:48:14 +0000 UTC]

Spoilers can be so difficult to avoid, don't they?

Well, the lights look a bit different, but in all in the same amount.

I found the voice cute and fun to listen to, too. I can tell you a lot more about these stuff, but I won't. Y'know, spoilers.
Hmm, that's a good question. I'n this form I think she pretty much has the same voice she had.

Powerwing-Amber In reply to PsuC [2011-05-25 21:25:32 +0000 UTC]

It can be. But at least the comic I follow the author was nice enough to give a BIG warning beforehand.

Oh, you're right. I guess I wasn't very observant.

Right, right. ^^ Such a great voice. I wonder what her real one would sound like, though.

PsuC In reply to Powerwing-Amber [2011-05-26 14:18:10 +0000 UTC]

That's good.

She's got a lot of details, and this form is quite different-looking, so yeah, no worrries.^^

Like this; [link] She is voiced by Ellen Mclain. I haven't listened to all, so I'm not sure if there are spoilers, but listen to just half the video or less would be okay.

Powerwing-Amber In reply to PsuC [2011-05-26 22:52:45 +0000 UTC]

I've felt the same way about my own character at times.

Wow! Her voice is pretty... and familiar. o_o Her voice reminds me of Rosella's voice from King's Quest VII.

PsuC In reply to Powerwing-Amber [2011-05-28 15:04:45 +0000 UTC]

But all those details on Powerwing Amber are fun to draw and to look at, really!^^

I agree. She seems to be a bit in-character of GLaDOS, as well.(Even if she's not actually portraying her at the moment.) Hmm, I'm not sure about that, but I've never heard any familiar voice to this one in other games before.

Powerwing-Amber In reply to PsuC [2011-05-28 22:19:56 +0000 UTC]

Aww, thanks.

I can hear the GLaDOS in her voice when she's talking normal. Makes sense, I suppose.

King's Quest VII is an old point-and-click style PC game which was kind of obscure, so I can understand if you haven't heard of it before.

PsuC In reply to Powerwing-Amber [2011-05-29 16:24:08 +0000 UTC]

No problem. Just expressing my thoughts about her design.

She's actually still pretty creepy talking normal, as well. I think.

Ah, the style of gaming that you stll love from the old days to this day, as mentioned before.

Powerwing-Amber In reply to PsuC [2011-05-31 20:31:11 +0000 UTC]

I know, but... it's not often I hear that from others about her.

Creepy? I didn't think so, but... maybe it'll seem that way in the game itself.

Yes, you remembered.

PsuC In reply to Powerwing-Amber [2011-06-01 17:11:53 +0000 UTC]

You'll be hearing more from me if there are some more drawings of her in the future.

Ah, yes, you've gotta get into the game's atmosphere and you'll find the creepyness within the game's very enjoyable story and gameplay.

I'll just add the game to my wishlist, I suppose.
