Drawing of Murderbot and Ratthi sitting together. Ratthi says “You know, you’ve grown a lot since we first met you”. Murderbot responds, “ Only my hair has grown. The rest of me is actually shorter”.

It eventually gets a haircut too.

the murderbot diaries murderbot murderbot diaries tmbd ratthi secunit i drew this a while ago and never posted it mostly cause it's supposed to be set during the final scene in book 4.5 and i don't know if ratthi would say this at this point in their relationship maybe this is instead a while after mb settled in on preservation but just before ratthi showed it how to tie back its hair i'm probably overthinking this

Drawing of the cyborg Murderbot with a sad expression curled up in a blanket while viewing a holographic video. Behind it is the text: “All I wanted to do was watch media and not exist”. The full background is black with gray and red binary.

Quote from Fugitive Telemetry. Scene set between Network Effect and System Collapse.

The binary is in ASCII, Unicode, and ASCII/UTF-8. Whichever you pick, it will translate to the same thing.

Photo of a package of three astronaut-shaped lip gloss/oil keychains.

For once me procrastinating on something has worked out in my favor.

Decided to make multiple versions, each based to varying degrees on the official illustrations, the TV show design, and my own headcanons. Now I just have to figure out where I put the third one and decide what to do with it.

And yes, the lip oil is still in there.

An abstract drawing. At the top is a large black blob with binary numbers within it. Radiating from the blob are black and white dots and blue and tan paint strokes. A curved white line runs from the large blob down to a smaller black blob. Where the curve meets the smaller blob is a blue star. The smaller blob is surrounded by white and blue concentric curves and tan rectangles. The background is a grainy blue and orange gradient bordered by black.

The actually first piece of Murderbot fanart I ever made (over a year ago now). Drew this up immediately after finishing Network Effect fueled by queerplatonic Murderhelion feels.

So yes, this is technically ship art of a technologically advanced ship named ART and its security unit.

No, the binary does not mean anything.

A drawing of a blue sphere named ART with feathery blue wings, three blue rings wrapped around it, and an eye where the rings cross. It is staring down at a tiny turquoise cyborg, Murderbot, both floating through the white expanse they are within. Surrounding them is a ring of circles, all in blue.

Artificial Condition - Murderbot

For the full resolution image, click here.

Under the cut are clues to what everything means.

Not all of these are references, but a lot of them are.

If something has a unit next to it, convert it to one you’re more familiar with.

The coordinates and cargo amounts are Dewey Decimal.

Those seemingly random pairs of numbers and letters are text converted to hexadecimal.

The binary means nothing.

If you don’t know what an image is, it’s probably related to quantum mechanics.

Drawing of the cyborg character Murderbot. It is looking down with a sad expression, as if about to cry. Its sclera and artificial seams along its face are dark red.

Felt like drawing a sad Murderbot. For a fourth time.
