#AND THE MECHA

[biohazard-inevitable]

Tail waggy tail waggy as my claws wrap carefully along the pristine white of my controller, my maw open in endless glee as I read the lines “They are trying to forge a new god”

Modern Carapace: O Bounty Of Thy Ribs is my 72-pg comic about a park ranger named Esther who protects giant bugs from poachers with her prototype mecha, Tarantula Hawk. You should read it!

I get a little self conscious constantly pushing this book but I'm very proud of it, so I hope you don't mind!

Thinking more about Mech dysphoria today.

Stepping out of your cockpit and stumbling because you don't have the right number of legs.

Blinking your eyes out of sync because you don't have the right number anymore, don't have access to on board cameras the way you're supposed to.

Struggling to grab and pick things up because you have the wrong number of fingers.

Failing to recognize your face in the mirror without layers of armor plating over it.

Feeling like a brain pulled from its body and forced to function independently.

Deceived Never More!

Every* Type of Mecha

*Not Actually Every Type.

Something I spent WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much time on lol. This is entirely just riffing off of the many 'kinds' or 'tropes' in mecha design I found. Feel free to suggest more of them.

Might make a document providing examples for each one, but idk. I think most of these are pretty self-explanatory.

Tell me your favourites below

[Update: Here's the sequel to this chart, cataloguing Kaiju instead!]

[rounderhouse]

born to use switches and knobs arranged in a cockpit, each one offering a tactile sensation as you flick it and the mech you're in lurches into action

forced to use touchscreens at your desk
