deleted post
This is a deleted post from a writing community where I misread the rules. However, I saved the contents and have put them here. No, you don't get to know the comm.
Yes, you can read and leave comments.
Both are fanworks for the game Startopia, and yes, I know that is different from my introduction post, but I have changed in the months since I made that post. I will hopefully put up some works that are related to my intro post's characters, but until then, refer to RTSC Startopia to learn about the game I'm writing about.
The character Bevvy Owtgaffe is a Groulien Salt Hog, and he is an original character set in the Startopia universe. In fact, the only characters that are from Startopia are VAL, a computer A.I., and Arona Daal, an alien trader. They might make appearances.
Onto the creative works!

Summary: Bevvy Owtgaffe discovers robotic traffic on his way to work.
Notes: I am trying to make these pieces accessible to the reader who hasn't played the game, but I might fail in some areas. Please be patient, and ask questions.
This also is a snippet from a planned longer work, and so it reads like one. I think it can stand alone, though.

Bevvy Owtgaffe waved a paw at the scuzzers, attempting to shoo them. Unfortunately, they only whirred at him and continued to sit in line, holding their cargo carefully.
He sighed and made a mental note to himself: Warn Station Supervisor about the horrible traffic by the Factory. It was nearly impossible to get there, and if he didn't get there, he wouldn't be able to make more cargo crates - and cause more traffic!
At least he would get paid, and he had been wanting to take a ride in the newly placed Oroflex. It looked a lot more fun then standing in front of a Siren and soaking in their energy.
Now, if only he could convince these scuzzers to just shift a little bit...
"I'm trying to go to work! Move!" He said, stepping closer.
More whirring sounds, but no dice. Bevvy grunted irritably and glanced up at the cargo hold, wondering what was taking so long.
The cargolift was working, so that wasn't a problem, thankfully.
"'ey! Owtgaffe! What's the hold up?"
Bevvy knew that voice. It was Bodgy Eckkip.
"Scuzzers." He grunted, waving at the line. "Until one of them drops of their cargo, we can't get in."
"We? Ha! The recyc' has an opening, and they requested me! I just came over to say goodbye to this old place."
"Until they need more workers over here, and you get transferred back, right?"
"Don't go there, Owtgaffe - 'ey, looks like your line is moving!"
Bevvy turned, and yes, it was. Before the next scuzzer could scuttle into the empty place, Bevvy slid into the line, and then through it.
"Bye, Eckkip!" He called as he checked the timeslot and entered the factory.
Time for work!

Alrighty, done with that. Please provide feedback if you can/want to.

Summary: A portrait of a Groulien Salt Hog. It could double as a picture of Bevvy Owtgaffe.
Notes: This is a painting. I used acrylic paints on canvas after using a pencil to trace the basic design onto the board. Once it dried, I scanned it in.
Please, if you leave feedback on this piece, please be aware that I am an amateur painter and have only had basic High School and Middle School classes. Also, I refuse to do more work on this piece - if you leave feedback, I write it down and use it on the next painting.
