Description
a study of Fallout Foods… (a commission for Scuttlebuttin )
WHAT’S FOR DINNER?: Scuttlebuttin ‘s OC, Sue’s Favorite: Deathclaw in Aspic with full feast
Deathclaw in Aspic Shredded Deathclaw meat, peas, and blood carrots garnished with carrot slices, greens, sliced tatos, and a sprig of mint.
Palate - Salty, fatty. Deathclaw meat is cooked in an encasement of Deathclaw bone broth to accentuate flavors.
Scuttlebuttin’s notes - “ I didn’t find them repulsive but I didn’t love them. The jellied deathclaw come out at all social gatherings in winter and even the sight of the things makes me want to gag. No matter how they tried to make it look good, the texture I could never get pass. It’s definitely Mr.Galloway favorite dish because he dives into that bowl and scoff like it was a bowl of Fancy Lads Snack at a kids table. I can imagine attending a family wedding in the area and Mr.Galloway is the elderly relative who refused to make the trip unless they could have jellied deathclaw on the menu.” Diary from Lovelock (Scuttlebuttins’ OC).
Rye BreadDark but nutritious. Usually served warm and spread with brahmin butter.
Sliced MutfruitSweet. Acidic. Extremely messy to eat once cut. Syrupy juice.
Dried Cheese CurdsMade from brahmin milk. Extremely dense and salty.
Cup of MilkMilked fresh from brahmin. Rich and creamy.
Artist NotesFirst, I want to say how much I appreciate that everyone is enjoying my food study series. This was honestly just an endeavor to learn more about textures, light, and sketching methods, but you guys really took it and ran with it!
I have been a huge fan of Scuttlebuttin for 2 years and was pleasantly surprised when they messaged me one day to talk about my thoughts on Fallout foods. We started bouncing back and forth lore-friendly ideas regarding post-apocalypse food items. And so, they commissioned me to help with a few ideas of their own!!!
Since people seem very interested in commissioning me to create their OC’s favorite dishes, I think I will need to sit down and create a separate pricing list for food pieces alone as they range in a different complexity altogether.
Hardest part - turns out cheese curds are a pain
Fun part - I had a blast studying different artists’ renditions of gelatin and applying my own take on how to do it! AND BREAD TEXTURES!! OMG!!! <3
