#blasternaut

I don't think anyone is going to care about these because no one remembers these guys but I liked how this came out enough to post it anyway.

I've been looking back on some MMOs I played as a kid, and one of those was Math Blaster (which was something of a companion game to the better-remembered World of Jumpstart.) In hindsight it kinda sucked LMAO but G.C. and Max are neat and I wanted to draw my own takes on them (more or less combining the versions I grew up with and their previous iterations)

Alternate palettes under the cut

I actually went and did a quick doodle-colour of this set of nostalgic PC game doodles. Chances of being actually cleaned up digitally = high.

From top left to bottom right complete with geeking out over childhood:

This is Blasternaut, the (usually) main character. I'm sure I had a crush on his voice when I was a little brat. He's got a wrist analyzer named Froyde that speaks in a Sassy Gay Hammy German Accent. I shit you not. It's awesome. He's replaced when Knowledge Adventures got the series with a blue-haired guy named Max Blaster, who I guess is alright. (The latest character developments/recent updates to him last I saw are like what happened here.)

The purple-haired girl is Galactic Commander aka GC. For a Galactic Commander she was pretty damn chill. I can't remember if GC was playable, I'm sure she was in the 9 - 12 Math Blaster from Davidson, but anyway, Knowledge kept her hair when they changed her for their adaptation. (I totally shipped Blasternaut/GC and Max/GC together. Just so you know. Unless Max and GC were siblings. Then fuck that.)

Spot is that robot droid. He gets kidnapped a lot in the Blaster saga because his robot brains are just overflowing with intelligence. He becomes a technobabbling sidekick as the series progresses - which I have no complaints about, he's adorable.
