Houtouwan, a once prosperous fishing village on the northern side of Shengshan Island. The village was home to more than 3,000 residents but was reported to be officially depopulated by 2002 because of its remoteness and hard-to-access location.

I hadn’t posted this on tumblr yet but I’ve been working on a robot dude concept for my portfolio, here’s some concept art and a final render. I also wrote a small paragraph about their background which you can read beneath the cut!
Lore:
The area his robot lived in used to be a warzone, and the robot used to be a war machine. Years after the war had ended, various people tried to rebuild their homes in the wastelands that the war had left. Many used scrap from ruined houses to build up new ones, and people even reprogrammed some war robots to help them with the rebuilding of the area and other daily tasks. These wastelands, however, were slightly contaminated by radioactive/chemical spills from weapons used in the war. Once the people realised this, they all fled and left the rebuilt city and robots for what they were.
One person, a mechanic, falling I’ll because of the radiation, knew it was too late for them to return to safer lands, so they decided to try and upload their memory and conscience to their helper robot. Despite all their effort, they were short on time and only half succeeded in uploading the insides of their brain to the robot. This resulted in the robot becoming semi self aware and remembering fragments of a life they never lived themselves.
The reformed robot now roams the land looking for their own past and purpose while slowly breaking down because they too, weren’t fully immune to the radioactive substances since the mechanic installed some organic parts to make the robot more susceptible to their brain.
The cat on its shoulder was the mechanics house pet. The cat once lost its leg but the mechanic replaced it with a mechanical leg, enabling the cat to keep on living. Unlike humans, that were killed by the radiation, the cat seems to only be mutating slowly. With no real reason for the cat to stay behind, the cat now follows the robot through forgotten wastelands simply because they recognise traces of their previous owner in the robot.
They are besties <3
