OS-tan Fan-Fics, Comics and Fan-Stuff / Re: FREE COOKIES!
Last post by VonDaab - December 25, 2025, 07:28:33 PMIn this economy would be cheaper to put solid gold bars instead of RAM.
Had to drop Inu-T due to time constraints, I guess.
Also that original is so old that it's back from when I still drew and inked on paper.
Lineart just a rather low resolution bitmap scan. Not ideal.

Last post by Bella - December 25, 2025, 05:42:38 PMPutting milk and RAM out on the mantle for Saseklaus... :3
She is even more gongeous in your new style but there's something very charming about the Inu-T reindeer in the original!

Decided to redraw the seasonal Saseko from... 18 years ago.
I'll let you figure out which one is the new one.

Last post by stewartsage - December 20, 2025, 05:58:58 PMBeat me to posting again even though I had all that time....
Probably not a bad time. There's definitely more information out there on a lot of the DEC systems, even if we thought there was everything we needed years ago. Yes, yes, VAX-tan. You've heard my ideas about her, but I'll post them in my thread sometime soon.
I love the family connection's you've drawn between the different groups! Probably not a surprise that the LINC-line is my maybe my favorite, the green outfits with dark hair is very striking, as is -12's green eyes. -10 looks like she stole that outfit off a Boston & Maine locomotive. All the small blondes are very cute.
All the creamsicley PDP-8 related OSes have really nice color palette. RAMP looks fantastic! Good combination of PDP-8 as one mom and MTS as the other. Gotta compress quite a bit into that frame. That's a good take for SCPSYS, really fits how she was designed. I think I need to expand/spruce up her characterization tbh, I feel like I left it thinner than it should be.
WAITS-san......
TENEX's dual-tone hair is cool. Honestly forgot MUMPS was a nurse. Oh look, she's there to keep the saddest time-sharing OS from just falling over. I like to think BBNTSS-tan is comparing herself to the rest with that side-eye. DOS and RT-11 look like they're gonna beat me up. RSX-11's coat and bell bottoms combo is baller. I'm glad UNIX is miserable to be here. Where on earth is there VAXELN information kept? Is VMS here to take my order? LOL. ULTRIX very fluffy, very nice.

Fullsize
Sorted roughly into "families", by the hardware model the OS originated or was popularized on. I tried to give each grouping a coherent visual identity in-line with the depiction of their hardware.
Notes/changelog:

Notes/changelog:
- OS/8-tan (and by extension MS/8 & MENU-8) have orange hair now to fit in better with the PDP-8 family.
- RAMP-tan is styled after MTS-tan but more in line with the PDP-8 color scheme.
- SCPSYS-tan is sort of like LINC-tan mapped with PDP-8-tan's colors.
- WAITS-tan has a robot arm now. Unsure whether I want it to be a power armor piece or prosthetic.
- ITS-tan is one of the biggest overhauls here. Envisioning her as a bit more of a hippie type than before. I'll probably get around to re-writing a proper bio for her at some point.
- Same with TENEX-tan. Decided to model her more closely after her parents (?) BBNTSS-tan and BTSS-tan (who herself will likely be overhauled to incorporate more gold/yellow)
and FASTRAND-kun, as well as incorporating terra cotta into her color scheme to match the DECSYSTEM-20 appearance. - I felt that Ultrix-tan's color scheme was a bit nondistinct and disjoint with the other Unices so I switched it up.

Last post by VonDaab - December 20, 2025, 01:15:09 PMYeah, its based on the original game genie design.
Could do some really goofy things with the game genie. Change physics and such.
Also some pixelartsy.

A Game Genie gal from the 90s, if anyone remembers that thing.
