teku-a-fool's collection

[tekuafool He/Him]

Since last year I've been drawing full body artwork for many of the OS-tans that have a design (or several... Vistas...)and I would like to post them here for posterity. My idea, originally, was to draw them as posters for a collection but that has fallen by the wayside a bit.

I focus more on the operating systems more than actual machines, or programs.

So far these are the characters I've drawn:

Windows:

Mac:

Other:

I would like to draw more Linux and UNIX-like designs in the future.

Of these, some are my personal designs:



Some I consider semi-custom since they are not entirely my idea:



Whistler: Inspired by one specific image that appears when looking for Windows XP. My idea was to design a transition from 2K to XP while also looking like an alternative XP-tan. I honestly don't like it much so maybe I'll retry again some time.

El Capitan and Catalina: Based on the padorus in the booru.

Now if I could stay consistent with my art style, that'd be great heh. I like to try different brushes all the time. Can't help it

Also, I'm not versed in the ways of forum thread making despite my time on the internet, lol. So apologies if something looks wonky

You are so powerful. All of these full body's are crazy!

I think your designs are really cute!

Hell yeah, thank you for posting these here! Caught some designs that I've missed elsewhere!

I've already gushed about the Mac OS-tans you've blessed us with, but I'd like to say again that it's awesome you've made designs that are worthy successors to Esu's bigcatgirl lineup. ^u^

Your Blackcomb, Whistler & Longhorn designs are phenomenal! Blackcomb in particular is my favorite, she's so dang elegant in a cyberpunk kind of way. I love Longhorn's mech-y elements and Whistler is just as beautiful as Saseko while looking visually distinct from her. They also fit in well with the existing prototype windows OS-tans... actually you've got me thinking up story reasons for why this might be.

I've been meaning to comment on your W11-tan! I love how bratty she looks, while having to begrudgingly admit she's quite cute, and imo the most fitting W11-tan I've seen in terms of references to the OS itselg. Gah! I'm having my first charitable emotion about anything related to W11...

I look forward to seeing what you draw next! As as aside, if you ever want to take a stab at any of my designs/my 'adoptees' (the ones I co-designed with former members) please feel free to. (Your take on Plan 9-tan is one of my favorite depictions of her ever tbh)
