Just a fun little idea I had for Webtoon’s OC_tober event

[asherisawkward]

What's your stance on the whole "Belos is a colonizer" argument? Do you agree? Is he? And if so, was he based off of real people?

I disagree that he was a colonizer. The actual definition of colonizer is “a country that sends settlers to a place and establishes political control over it.”

Philip does not send any settlers into the Boiling Isles to take over it. He takes over with three people: himself, the constant Grimwaker at his side, and the Collector (who is basically a ghost that can’t interact with anything). And, I suppose we could include the dynamite and artificial magic if we really wanted to push it.

Aside from that, the culture of the Boiling Isles is already incredibly Euro-centric and reflects most of the clothing and behavior of the time. It’s not really destroying their culture if the only thing that he changes is “Hey, let’s practice things utilizing specialization as opposed to everybody doing everything.” Rulers have made more drastic changes to their own countries.

As for on Earth, Philip was a child/grandchild of colonizers but not one himself.

I'M ALIVE!

So I've been a wee bit dry on ideas, but I have been puzzling over how exactly Grimwalkers work.

Here are some questions, let your imagination run wild:

Is the reason Grimwalker's eyes are red because their eyes contain the blood of the one they are made out of?

When a Grimwalker emerges, how old are they and why?

Do the core Ingerdiance of a Grimwaker Become flesh during incubation?

If so, what may cause the flesh to turn back into its core material?

I've said it once I've said it a thousand times I wish we got more grimwalker time. like I wish we got more everything time but you know me. the clone guy. anyways as someone with non-golden guard grimwalker OCS it's a little difficult because. we never find out whether Hunter's lack of magic stems from grimwalker-ness or being a clone of a human? like either is plausible I think. humans don't have bile sacs so it could be that. But also humans don't have pointed ears and hunter most definitely does, so we may be able to assume that's a grimwaker trait: even if the ortet species is one way some other grim-traits could bleed through. which makes me think his lack of magic could also be a grimwalker thing. like sure he's made up of a bunch of magical materials but I think that magic goes towards making him alive, not for casting. he has a galdorstone for a heart, of course there's no bile sac attached to it. If grimwalkers could be capable of using the stone for magic (besides illusions, I guess) then theres no reason him being a human clone should affect that? he has the stone. if it could be used to do magic then it would be, irregardless of the bile sac status of the ortet. in my opinion.

At time 04:02 you see hunter has 3 books on grimwakers, so I guess he is robbing the school library.

[cryptidkey]

I wonder if Flapjack knows about the other Grimwakers.

[nona1323]

Okay, just a funny thought.

What if Darius wasn't looking for Hunter because Rain convinced him that the boy would stay with Ida? I can quite imagine that. And so, at the end of the last episode, Darius is like, "Okay, where's the little prince?" And Ida "What little prince?" Darius: Well, Hunter. And Yes: I haven't seen him since he escaped from the owl's boma after traveling into the Emperor's mind. And Darius is just a *panic* Rain! You promised me! Where is my little prince! * parental instincts to the maximum* And at this time Hunter is eating Gus's sandwich, reading books about Grimwakers

I just find it funny. And then, Eberford, in order to calm Darius, goes in search of Hunter with the help of his abilities.

Some of my fav expressions from my webcomic’s first season finale + my fave bit (1st pic)

One might say I overdo the details in my webcomic…

Did I have to reference an 11mm camera lens for a robot’s iris? (11mm is within the median range for the typical human iris diameter)??

Absolutely fucking not.

Did I do it anyway?

Uh, yeah. Why tf not??

I mean, their entire design was made after hours of research in subjects like general robotics, animatronics, robotic-powered prostheses, and more. So like, ofc I’m going to make their eye a fuckin camera lens.

(Note: I do not know lens stuff that well anymore so it could very well be inaccurate, and I’m very aware of that. I just wanted to say that, I just know someone will try to cook me if I’m wrong. It’s whateves.)

Can’t believe it’s been two years already. Thank you all for your continued support.

Really random quick tidbit for those who read GrimWake: You might notice that season 1 episodes 4/6–16/17 that uh, everything kinda seems to be stretched out..? i.e. character’s faces are built long.

Was it a skill issue? Well, sort of..

I made almost all of season 1 on a laptop, placed on a shorter desk and I sat in taller chair, so everything was wonky height-wise. During episode 17’s production, I got a laptop stand so it was finally at eye level.

I found that the distortion would occur cuz, before the stand, my laptop screen was not in a relaiable line of sight, plus evidently my screen was tilted (I never closed it)

I wondered why everything got silly-putty stretched when it uploaded onto Webtoon. Haha, nope, that was a me thing. Oops 🥲

GrimWake’s Season 2 premiere is still set for Aug 2nd at 4pm EST! Here’s a sneak peek of what episodes are to follow..
