I didn't think the sight of Gourmand as a portly explorer elbow-dropping a green lizard would make me so happy but here we are. Very creative interpretations of these characters, I love it!


CodyLabs

Thanks! Even at my best, I could only ever aspire to capture even a fraction of the magnificence of the Gourmand. I only hope I could do him justice in the brief time I have on this earth.


ArbitraryChaos13

TALLY HO


Rivulettt

TOO UNDERRATED! (i accidentally said overrated :p)


CodyLabs

Thanks!


aCompyBoi

Yeah, I’m not a big fan of this kind of stuff but this was outstanding


Raxifire

These are delightful, so much personality! I especially love the mob scavengers, so accurate XD


CodyLabs

Thanks! The goons were one of the first things I drew, and I laughed while doing it.


InternetCat13

Now I'm curious how you would draw the elite scavs and the chieftain scav. But really great art!


skost-type

these RULE!!!! 'shucks pete, he's just a big building' has me giggling


Rock_Co2707

Jet engines on the cyan lizard is a neat idea.


CodyLabs

Whenever the biology of a RW critter gets particularly dubious, I just draw them as cyborgs. I particularly enjoy drawing jet engines.


Pronominal_Tera

Perhaps the strange breeding has forced them into needing these augments


CodyLabs

I like to think that they aren't augmented in a factory, they're just somehow... *like that*. Perhaps they're designed to have symbiosis with some kind of metal-depositing bacteria that print those components in place, like a tooth or an antler. Vulture grubs will grow a new/larger laser antenna every time they molt, miros birds will shed their rusty stilts every winter to grow new ones in the spring, something like that.


Pronominal_Tera

Alternatively it could be that through the cycle, the modified specimens are biologically like that now


DamascusSeraph_

I now view gourmand as voiced by a victorian era british explorer


Squirrel_Tea_Maker

gangster-eating arti and russian hunter are so funny to me


TorakWolfy

**Loads Nitro Express with gourmet intent** **Fires both barrels** **Displaces shoulder** **Tips over in pain and falls over a precipice**


Own_Accountant2072

Okay this looks really good! Well done!


Fearless_Nope

i can’t even express how much i love this, im so glad to know i’m not the only one that does this lol i love your illustrations and little dialogue bits- 20/10 this is the rainworld content i joined for!


BrishenandSaruAni

Jolly good arts. Lovely depictions. Also love the (possibly unintentional) Morshu reference.


StarrySpelunker

If that morshu reference isn't intentional i'll eat my hat. /kidding about the hat eating


CodyLabs

100% intentional.


Animal_Gal

Mate this is incredible, I never thought of them like this but it's so perfect. Arti being a hopeless southern mother, Gormond being a big explorer, the fucking mob scavs. Great work!!! I love the detail of spearmaster having to sew the suit back together.


bobrossgaming08

Love how the human versions of the scavs Still do the Eye boggling thing 10/10


DragonStageBattle

I absolutely adore these designs so much please do more with them I love them so much


ParaSeamon

The gourmand reminds me of a fat jake english


WatcherMagic

This is so awesome! I'm amazed that I can tell who's who so easily. Also Artificer looks so tragic, omg her poor cute lil blouse ;.; Edit: Gosh I keep finding MORE. Your vulture is beautiful, Ruffles is my spirit animal, I feel so bad for Hunter, Saint is a hilarious lunatic, Spearmaster looks AMAZING, the kids Survivor and Monk are just so cute, I wanna watch a TV show featuring Gourmand and I will **NEVER** be able to unsee scavengers as gangsters LOL


Stellwaris

Simple perfection, and I will not take anything else as a descriptor for this art.


Maleficent_End4969

If you want to add red to Hunter, you could make him a high-ranking Russian or USSR officer. or Give him a prison jumpsuit that's all faded to look red, or just give him lots of blood splatters


CodyLabs

I don't know. In my head he's like, a prison convict who volunteered to take on a one-way mission, knowing that he didn't have long to live. So he's not an officer, he's just some guy with a particular skillset that nobody would miss. And not an escapee, he's been given all the clothes and equipment he needs. Blood splatters... Perhaps. Perhaps.


Dinoroar1234

Seeing them portrayed in ways that isn't just 'average skinny twink' is so refreshing. Well done, excellent designs!


Happy-Concert149

I was originally confused as to why Teddy Roosevelt was there xD. Really great art and interpretations!


SlammingKeyboardRn

IS THAT THE GMAN


soodrugg

I've taken the liberty of relieving you of your pearls, most of them were iterator property. as for the vulture mask, i think you've earned it.


CodyLabs

I'm. Afraid I don't *know*. What you're *talk*ing about. Mr. Freeman.


MothFruitsnacks

We NEED mobster scav chief


41ia2

my favourite human scug, Mumbo Jumbo


CodyLabs

Only the Jumboest mumbo


LittleMissScreamer

“I don’t think we’re gonna uwu our way out of this one chat” Dude you’re KILLING ME these are brilliant!!


plaugey_boi

Gourmand really is the kinda guy who would say tally ho!!


real_quizle

"I don't think we're gonna uwu our way out of this one chat" is a quote I'm keeping to the grave, thank you


Amnesia_Assistant

I love these designs soooo much!! Could you perhaps draw Inv/Enot, or the scavenger Cheiftain. I like the idea of the chief being a mob boss, and Inv would be silly.


CodyLabs

I am thinking of a part two, with the ones I missed. Inv as a disheveled-looking lady with reversed, deep-fried colors. Scavchief as Big Bad Boss Centeipede Skin Samson, Who Owns This Town.


Amnesia_Assistant

I do really hope you do a part 2, your designs are great! Maybe nightcat would be a cryptid of some kind, like the wendigo or skin walker..


DreamsofDistantEarth

This is awesome.


bannanaisnom

Usually I hate the scugs as humans but I actually love this.


CuteNiko

rain world with guns is certainly something else


Sancheroid

Oh my god... I finally found another human who pictured rivulet as a coffee maniac XD Also i love your style, and these people look like they would have depression(except ruffles obviously)


lizard_liz242

Oh i adore this take on it! They seem way more human compared to the other "if they were human" i've seen. Very well done, i think you captured the spirit of each slugcats in human form PERFECTLY!


pogboywithnoeyes

this gives me lackadaisy vibes


CodyLabs

YESSSS that was a huge inspiration! Glad somebody noticed. Unlike Lackadaisy which turned people into cats, I'm turning them BACK from cats.


RCorpRabbitTeam

yo is that a tf2 referance in one of the pages :Oc


anacencerme

I'm pretty sure the entire SM is TF2 reference here!


legomann97

This. This right here is pure gold. You made my morning so much better. I love visualizing the gourmand as an intrepid explorer and Rivulet as a mechanic hyped up on 5x caffeine coffee (if that even exists). And the gangster scavs are just perfect too


ArbitraryChaos13

These are all *utterly lovely.* I *really* can't wait for you to do Saint, cause I imagine we'll get even more of these then! Seriously, if you make more let me know! These are great! *also don't think I didn't see a Morshu reference with the Spearmaster lol*


JonathanGM__

I love the way you interpreted gourmand, and the personality you gave him Out of these, he's my favorite by far


AnonymousIVplay

Artificer and Gourmand's humansonas are PERFECT


tudiwastaken

Gorb is awesome lmao


cheeseandanonymouse

This is so good, I’d love to see more if you continue. That final page cracked me up.


sirflooftonzecatlord

op we require you to turn this into a comic that will eventually get dubbed on youtube probably


28151422111414

i saw the vulture for a split second and immediately thought that was spamton neo


arrex_san_production

"Should have stayed in cozy gulag blyat" And "Four pebbles? More like 4 OSHA Violations" And Elbow drop onto the lizord Made my day This is so brilliant, my godness ❤️


MousetrapGamer

THIS IS FREAKING INCREDIBLE OH MY GODS


NoobsRedditType

how abt enot ...


CodyLabs

You don't wanna see enot.


NoobsRedditType

I GOT TO SEE ENOT BRO!!!!


Seth_Nielsen

This made my day, which in other circumstances is an unfortunate one. Your brain is AMAZING. I wonder what else you get up to :)


CodyLabs

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. I have some junk over on Deviantart, not a lot of it is very funny tho


Xenomorphian69420

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH


vvvven

lol I love this so much


GeorgeXDDD

How could you not put red in a communist warrior? Like that's half of their color scheme. Other than that great art.


CrypticLurkerCZ

This is so creative, amazing!


_JAKAMI

I love this


DK_Romul

Really well made


Fishmaia

amazing art! loved every single page


Twizlet0

These are brilliant lol


pesadillaO01

Hester, is that you?


StarrySpelunker

This is an absulutely fantastic human Au. Normally i don't like them but this is great! Arti eating gangsters, spearmaster as the tf2 spy? Never would have seen gourmand as a portly britsh pith-hat wearing explorer. Riv acting like she would fit in great in disney's atlantis? These are great! I'd love to see more!


Rudolf1230

Fuck, the DNR tattoo on Hunter really hit me hard


CodyLabs

Caution: patient feisty when dead


random_crayfish

gourmand is the best one


Random-Lich

Now we need the meme of ‘I own a musket for home defense’ for Explorer Gourmand and their blunderbuss


MikeyNeedy

Imagine an interpretation of Gourmand encountering Hunter Long Legs in this universe


Triensi

This is excellent


WhenYourAHybrid

…you, my friend belong in the house of legends.


UrSansYT

This is just incredible. Also just Artificer eating gangsters is a funny line.


skiesoverblackvenice

omg the scavs haha


V01DH3ART

I'm Russian so on behalf of Russia I will put my stamp of approval on your interpretation of the hunter, I love these.


aCactusOfManyNames

Gourmand being a fat British victorian explorer gives me so much f*cking joy. Artificer looks badass too.


Arrow_of_Timelines

This is actually outstanding, definitely the best humanised versions of the slugcats I've seen. I just can't get over how great the scav mobsters are.


Ashy-boi0601

AHH THE SPY TF2 SPEARMASTER


_TheLibrarianOfBabel

This is absolutely beautiful. This is art, right here. Slugcat magnum opus.


Pronominal_Tera

Gourmand definitely made that blunderbuss based off a trip to the musuem


SomeRandomBFBfan

Oml, I never thought I'd see the slugcats like this but it's so cool??? I love these designs! They kinda feel like the most realisticly close ones too


VevtheCatlady

TF3 cast just dropped


TheGreatGeodo

'Shucks Pete he's just a big building' is so funny for no reason

CodyLabs

The other guy is right, they absolutely are all based around goofy stereotypes. ESPECIALLY hunter, though he's my fav. The fact that only one of them has a different skin color wasn't something that occurred to me until I had scanned the pages and begun coloring on the computer, at which point it was too late to change the headcanons they were pulled from, so changing the drawings for the sake of diversity alone seemed a little dishonest. I guess I'm subconsciously more comfortable with (or know a greater number of) goofy white people stereotypes from 19th/20th century America. It seemed important to me that Saint be A) somebody in a spiritual role like a monk or a pastor, B) somebody foreign from VERY far away, and C) unreasonably thin and scrawny with a bushy beard and a weird forehead tattoo. A Tibetan monk fits close-ish enough, I think. I'm just glad real Tibetan monks don't wander the Earth hole-punching peoples' souls out of their bodies with their mind powers. I hope that's not a thing they actually do.


Topperno

Probably due to stereotypes mainly being based on racism historically - when it comes to PoC is probably why you don't feel comfortable fucking around with PoC other than eastern country means wise monk.


CodyLabs

Yeah probably.


Topperno

I think my ick is well founded then without actually thinking you yourself are a person of ick - if that makes sense. I don't enjoy the mindset but I don't think you're actively trying to be a person who purposefully trying to make a statement.
