I'M NOT DEAD, ISN'T IT AMAZING!? And it only took..like..MONTHS to upload anything! This is a gift to my very dear friend Egrup (or ~PurgeSLC as he's called on dA) who always stuck by me and with whom I had many fun time shenanigans on this crazy pony ride we're on. Before someone jumps to mention that I said I won't be doing birthday gift art anymore (AND I DID A LOT OF IT AFTER THAT) I'll consider this an exception since I haven't drawn anything proper for Eg's previous birthday! Also, I was late for his birthday by about..3 months, whoops. I chose this crossover because I had a blast playing this with ~PurgeSLC and ~Alorpax and because I wanted to experiment with an art style inspired by the game.
I'd like to thank ~thediscorded for giving me many suggestions and taking the time to bear with my whining and my slowness on this. I'd also like to thank ~Yanoda, =Tim015, *SubjectNumber2394 and *Whatsapokemon for various tips and suggestions and ~WhistlingBrony for the horribly punny title.
Q&A
"What the heck is going on here?"
It's a crossover with the popular (and amazingly fun) Role playing First Person Shooter Borderlands. (or more specifically Borderlands 2) The game has a great sense of humor, memorable characters and an interesting art style. Most characters in-game have a short "character card" thing when you first meet them which is what I was loosely emulating here. (Here are some examples: 1, 2)
"Who the heck is that?"
The character crossed over here is one of the six playable classes: the Mechromancer. I chose this firstly because Eg played her and second because a number of her skills are pony references. Woo!
"When the heck will you stop making random gift art and draw some proper canon pics?"
I did sketches for the Equestria Daily's Artist Training grounds. I'll start working on those pics soon and post those. I'll also make a process pic of this image probably.
As always, if you want to use the OC's design for anything, you'll need permission from :devPurgeSLC.:

Egrup's OC belongs to himself, obviously.
