#Generator Rex Evos

[crystal-moon-101]

If you could of change one evo design with one would it be how and why + do you like the ending of the show or you are not happy that Rex just deactivated the nanaits.

I presume you're asking if I could change a canon evo design, which one would it be. The first ones that come to mind are Black Knight and The Consortium. They just look way too robotic and play into a lot of the problems I have with the metananites stuff. I have done my redesigns for them, with Black Knight getting her own one, while the The Consortium become a fused Evo.

In terms of your second question, and I am very much not a fan of how the show ended for many reasons, reasons I could list off in an entire rant, but I will contain myself, lol. In general my biggest problem was it felt rushed, was way too crazy for the grounded story the first season planted, and I just didn't like how they handled the end of certain plot lines. Including how Rex handled evos and curing them. Generator Rex presented itself as a more complex show, trying to show things aren't always black and white, and to not take things at face value. This includes evos and how they were presented. The ending kind of sours it, along with ending a lot of unanswered questions in the air.

I am actually. I am so emotional over the Salazar parents and I need to share this to tumblr too.

A lot of stories where the MC is adopted I feel. Either dismiss the biological parents and the impact they have on the kid's life, or makes them evil and abusive, framing the loss of the bio parents as a good thing, or at least something we shouldn't think about just look at this new family.

But Genrex doesn't do that. From the start, Rex wanted to find out more about his parents - it's one of his primary character motivations, next to helping people. He loves them, even though he doesn't know them.

And the more he finds out about them, the more he realizes they loved him. Rylander is consumed by guilt but as Rex's first connection to his pre-Event life, the first thing he does is hug him. And when he tells Rex about his parents, the two things Rex knows is that 1) they were scientists, and 2) that when he was in danger, they were desperate enough to use their secret, experimental technology to save him. Technology built from their desire to help the world, to save countless lives and end countless suffering.

And then. When he finds out that they were dead, he doesn't stop caring. It'd be so easy, too, to tie it up there - his parents were good people, he got his answer about them, the end. But they don't. He doesn't. Because the show is saying once again that they are his parents. He still calls them mom and dad, even as the show makes it clear Holiday and Six adopted Rex as their son. Even as the show even parallels Six and One with Rex and Six (and I will talk about that more later if I don't forget, trust me), to really drive home how much they're family. Rex even says he considers the two of them family, and later that he considers Noah, Claire and Annie family.

He has new family, the show tells us, but his old family still matters to him. He's upset that he never has the chance to meet his parents, that everything he hears about them, about his time with them, is secondhand knowledge. It tells us clearly that not only does Rex still love them, but that he still wants to know them. And everything we find out about them reinforces the love that they had for each other.

We see Abuela and the family in Mexico, who connect him to his birth family and tell him that he was so loved back then, and still is now. We see their office in Abysus through Rex's eyes. The picture of him and his dad on his desk. The drawing Rex drew, proudly pinned to the wall.

We see it in the familiarity of the drawing. That that robot, that build, was what Rex created when he was lost and scared and alone - that it was made to keep him safe. That it first appeared in his mind in a place he felt safe.

The show says, tenderly and softly, that the love is still there. That the fact these people died was nothing but a tragedy, that their love is a big part of what made Rex who he is today - that every molecule in his body is filled with their final gift to him. That every time he cures someone, every time he uses a build, every time he makes a machine - we see the love that they had for him.

And the way he quietly absorbs his father's face. The way he freezes and whispers "Mamá?" when he finds out Zag-Rs has their mother's voice. The fact that she even has her voice as a testament to Caesar's love, too - that it was meant to bring comfort and safety. The way Rex yells at Caesar when he finds out they have a family property, a connection to their past, the way he fights to protect it.

And, none of this takes away still from Six and Holiday being Rex's family too. None of this removes the work either set of parents did for him, the love either set has - the show says that it was unfair that the Salazar parents were lost. That Six and Holiday are not replacements, that they still love him as parents but play different roles in his life. They can not, and have no desire to, replace the Salazars. But Rex needs parents, he needs protectors, and so they will do what they can for him - at first out of necessity, to keep this kid they barely know safe, but then out of love. They aren't replacing what was lost, but are doing their best to do what Rex's bio parents would do. And they do mess up in it - they mess up in ways Rex's bio parents might not have. Six is clearly bad with showing affection, affection we saw the Salazars give Rex so easily, and Holiday is overworked and stressed constantly, sometimes breaking under the pressure and snapping at Rex and Six, things we never saw the Salazars do.

It's just. It's about how sometimes things will not be the same. They will be different. That doesn't mean the people you lost aren't still with you.

reading posts on old cartoon forums from when generator rex was airing is my new favourite hobby. people keep comparing gen rex to x-men and it's undeniable that there are a lot of x-men parallels, but also this show was made by man of action, Joe Kelly, Joe Casey, Steven T Seagle and Duncan Rouleau, all x-men writers and an artist.

Hey~! If you're still doing requests, can you do something with the Black Pawns from Generator Rex?

Thank you for the request! Sorry for the wait!! Besides having a cooler color choice than White's Pawns I personally think Black lets them go a little ham and a lot more accidents results in the "termination" of EVOs.

They just have idk, this thing about them that seems more dangerous under Black Knight and the idea of Black Knight, while going towards a "cure" with so many more resources than White had at the beginning but man! The cruelty is the same, in some ways worse than before White took charge. She lets the black pawns have a lil treat (government sanctioned experimentation and termination of EVOs)

also I the basic EVO design I had in mind fueled directly by my fear of ungulates esp horses, esp esp esp wild horses

For GOOD or ILL - Lineart

After you haven't drawn for a long time, it's usually easier to start from small, but my inspiration forgot about it.

[anyoldfandom]

The problem with starting to think about the Pack more is the fact that now I want to grab Skalamander the same way I grabbed Bobo like. My house now. I want to use your character potential.
