atom's #artfight2025 references part 1 is finished!
#ocart #ocsky #teamfossils

A character reference sheet for Atom I Callahan, Courier 6. The front and back of the character are shown, surrounded by text. He has a prosthetic right arm and left leg.
The text reads: His positive attitude and affable demeanor quickly lull others into a false sense of security.
This is an example of an early prosthetic prototype design. Atom tests and builds all of these himself.
He has a deep fondness for grappling hooks, stealth boys, and flamboyant speeches.
He uses Med-X frequently as pain relief.
He keeps extensive Pip-Boy notes to compensate for his spotty memory.
He is left handed but shoots with his right.
Atom is naturally ginger. This shade is a result of dye.
A synthetic spine serves as the bridge for signals between his prosthetics and brain.
Despite appearances, his prosthetics are as dexterous as natural limbs.
He may be accurately described as a moral sociopath.

context: i use these mags for refs and inspo. i have nearly every issue i own stuffed full of bookmarked pages. and beside them on the wall is a glossary of all those same pages so i can find what i want. theyre a constant companion. like. what do i have to do to make you TAKE MY MONEY.

im suspecting smth is going on with the tarrifs (as im in the US) but like. that was two hundo bucks. where did it all go.

Kyle! @nimbusmachine.bsky.social · Sep 2

after digging thru her profile and bank app to find out if theres anything else going on, i help her pen a concise support ticket. tldr "i paid +$200 for this and did not get a charge back. where is my subscription. pls confirm the details."

Kyle! @nimbusmachine.bsky.social · Sep 2

today mom is like. theres a sale so we can get the missing back issues for cheap. im like awesome. we go to the website to do that.

subscription says N/A, zero issues remaining.

Kyle! @nimbusmachine.bsky.social · Sep 2

eventually after months i get her to stop procrastinating and try again. the cc company doesnt fuss and after the business weekend we get a confirmation email. this was the start of august. the email says the first issue i get will be the dec issue and will be sent in september, because shipping. ok

Kyle! @nimbusmachine.bsky.social · Sep 2

apparently her card did not allow the charge to go thru because its headquartered in a different country and the cc company thought it was fraud. ok fine. whatever.

Kyle! @nimbusmachine.bsky.social · Sep 2

i have a tale. so, last christmas in 2024 i got as a gift a continued sub to my fav art magazine. then i got no issues. eventually noticed this and brought it up to mom.
