I need to sleep soon so I have to write a raincheck on a longer response. But I wanted to say they are all beautiful!!!

*Looks closer at BSD-sama*

Wait a minute, is her cloak a VAX?

Wait a minute, is her cloak a VAX?

Yup! or at least it is supposed to look like one

[VonDaab]

That reminded me. In fact have drawn NetBSD, just very, very long time ago.

Oh yeah! I did use the second one as reference. Love the first one with the huge bell and ears, too

What even is the original source for that design? The OS-tan gallery has Bella/C-Chan material and one picture from an unknown artist.

Somehow I cant remember what I was basing it on almost 20 years ago.
The OS-tan gallery does have some conceptual sketch for jotting down details I made back then.


Also looking through the archives. Found a couple more sketches of her. Unfortunately I just seemed to scan everything quite low res back then, I guess a 600px picture just seemed big on a 1024x768 monitor.

VonDaab, I'm living for the NetBSD-tan pics I've never seen before. Especially CowBSD & swimsuit NetBSD-tan. >:3

To give that comment I promised earlier ...

I reiterate that I looooooooveeee what you did for BSD-sama, thank you for working your magic on her!!!!! I love the more futuristic and substantial take on her visual design, you truly transformed my old concept into something befitting her might and significance in the world of computers! I LOVE the shadow-form with the VAX coat, it's so damn cool and makes her look suitably imposing - perhaps enough to even strike a bit of fear into the heart of Unix-sama or VMS-tan. ^_^

I like the bodysuit for FreeBSD-tan! The sneaks are a fun touch too, as is the chibi. The pose is a lot of fun and FreeBSD-tan's expression is both charming and appropriately a little unhinged. ^____^

(Though the color scheme makes me think of Italy, haha!)

NETBSD-TAN MY LOVE. The cloth rendering on this one is so freaking good, I can't stop staring! I love her horn and tail ribbons too!!! ADORABLE, 10/10 NO NOTES.

I love the magic you worked on DragonflyBSD-tan's outfit, and the little details like the wings on her loafers and the stitching on her skirt. Pose is adorable too, as are the chibis.

WHOA MAMA OPENBSD-TAN. Thank you for making her look built as fuck, I am looking respectfully at her legs and arms.... again the cloth rendering on her shirt is so good and really emphasizes her musculature IMO. I love what you did with her hair too, and expression... gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.
