Finally got started with the ears and crown, a little scuffed atm. But I only need them to figure out the placement
Baa
Prototyping is going great!
... So many worms in my brain, yet the strings are cut, so they must continue to linger
I learned that art thrift stores exist and went to my local one today
You can learn if there's one around you by searching up
Creative reuse center near me
My last little contribution, just before the end of Pride Month...
Quick doodle of a drunken dad-joke from our favourite eldritch DILF
Okay, but I'm low-key obsessed with this idea.
Titan plushies, but you can open up the cockpits like a lunchbox. And they have a mini pilot inside
Soo, the fluffy boi's head is attatched....
...would've been done sooner, but I was busy playing the dlc (which is rlly fun)
A cute little feature I wanted to add was a removable cape using velcro. Doing this was what had broken the machine in the first place....
....still worth it
The cape's nearly finished outside of some finishing touches, but my sewing machine has decided it doesn't like me very much and has stopped working.
Anyways, frustration aside, look at this little goober...
I haven't seen any other fan theories like this, but if anyone else thought of this first, please let me know.
Anyways, alchemy obviously plays a big part in the magic system of the protocol universe. And I've seen several people bring up that Celia mentioned the three primes of alchemy. Based on my very non-expert google knowledge, the three primes are salt, mercury, and sulfur. Salt represents the body, mercury represents the mind, and sulfur represents the soul.
In other words, physical horror, psychological horror, and existential horror. There are three fear entities in this universe; Salt, which is fear relating to the body/physical harm, Mercury, which is mental/emotional fears, & Sulfur, which is existential fears. This lines up pretty well with what Colin said:
This time, the way to keep the entities from entering our world is to keep them balanced. And based on what we've seen, the way to keep the balance is probably by sacrificing people to them.
This next part is a bit of a stretch & I don't expect it to be right. Something interesting I noticed, all the Externals we've met so far seem to be Salt-coded. Maybe the OIAR is only in charge of the salt part of the balance? What if the Hilltop Center and the Magnus Institute were in charge of the other two elements? Colin didn't mention what happens when there's too much salt, but we might see that for ourselves soon.
*When you're feeding your knucklebones addiction instead of reciting sermons and declaring the newest doctrines*
Here's my painted knucklebones board. The board itself was 3D printed from a free file I found on thingiverse, to which I noticed the texture of the sides were the same as a book's, one thing after another I turned it into the Lamb's bible aswell.
Another detail I really like is how the dice I use corresponds with the colours of the crowns.
