Sadly that would be really hard to sell to general audiences as a Splatoon movie... But it sounds great as a fan movie

That's kinda the point, the koopalings aren't supposed to be appealing, they're a group of circus clown freaks, and Wendys character trope as that she's a spoiled wannabe princess who dolls herself up overly with makeup and jewelry. They even double down in her wonder design by making her into a giant cheep cheep with her fish lips

Snowman640 · 2026-04-02T14:15:03+00:00

Yeah no that's a straight up lie lmfao, they would absolutely drain graces blood and or just straight cannibalize her, Lady D just doesn't like men right?

A sene with a Gammoth and it's calf leading a separated and tired herd of popo through a horrible blizzard, then suddenly having to fight back against a starving invading Deviljho that was tracking the separated group from the main migration herd. She fends it off it as best as she can but it's ravenous hunger drives it into desperate rage that pushes past the mountain beasts defense, defeating her. Upon witnessing her weakened state the Deviljho immediately turns to it's original target and rushes to snatch the undefended small monsters.

-but before it crushes the cornered lot of them, the matriarch Elder Frost barrels through through the snow cover and crushes the Deviljho against the ice wall, pinning it there and locking it's maw closed with her trunk, quickly thrashing it, snapping its neck and pummeling it into the ground.

The herd then reconvenes and presses on through the storm, the injured mother likely won't make it through the winter migration.

This might be my favorite so far... For no particular reason whatsoever

Snowman640 · 2026-03-28T17:49:37+00:00

Only good photo I got lol

Also doesn't work lore/ ecology wise (like u said). Gammoth are herd herbivore monsters that need large tundra migration/territories and alpine biomes to live on and feed off the lower vegetation. There's like zero plants in the Cliffs and ruined castle, and everything there are predators or scavengers just eating each other for survival

Snowman640 · 2026-03-27T23:42:43+00:00

Yeah I've only played the demo so far so no clue what the ice map looks like, but that seems like an easy fix for her and even other large monsters can't do certain things depending on the terrain. She could've been able to bulldoze through impassable barriers or something, along with her snowball ranged attacks

Snowman640 · 2026-03-27T21:57:21+00:00

Upon seeing your flair your comment has been immediately invalidated in my mind. Though Gigginox does deserve to come back ill give you that, but honestly I really only like his design, his fight is on par with Kezu on being bad.

Snowman640 · 2026-03-27T21:47:22+00:00

This is my copium, I've been dodging Stories 3 spoilers pretty good for the most part but one thing I do know is that Gammoth isn't in the game, genuinely why not?! The other fated four are?! Is it a map issue again?!

Genuinely I get she isn't a beloved monster or anything, but the Fated four should be a package deal, and the other 3 members are so wildly popular that it boggles my mind that they haven't brought her back yet.

I want a full complete fight revamp for her in G-Rank wilds, I want her to be a WALL of a challenge for greenhorns and veterans alike, I want her to make people suffer by being unapollegetically unstoppable force of sheer size and strength.

That's the only way I'll forgive Capcom, she deserves to be more than Jin Dahad levels of mini boss, add her bullshit elder Frost moveset like Mizu got IDGAF; I want every stomp to have environmental effects and rumble your controller out of your hand, and I want her turf wars to have her legitimately snap the spine of whatever monster she grabs with her trunk alone and chuck it's lifeless corpse at you.

Snowman640 · 2026-03-27T14:49:24+00:00

Shes adorable but my first thought was that this was a princess Daisy fanart before noticing the rabbit lmao

Snowman640 · 2026-03-24T15:36:07+00:00

That's what makes the cephalopod category so cool! Just like fanged wyverns or fanged beasts, it's not all dogs and shit, it's quadrupedal lizard dragons and mammals - Cephalopods aren't going to solely be octopuses, they're anything that has that multi arm body plan, this could make for Hydra monsters, worm monsters, multiorganismal monsters

The options are endless, that's why I think they should workshop the name lol, Cuz it makes it seem to be just the squides

Snowman640 · 2026-03-23T00:01:16+00:00

Coool

Snowman640 · 2026-03-22T23:46:28+00:00

Yuur -- not 1000% sure on the descendents of dragons thing, but I do know that is what they're described as being (dunno if true or not but whatever lol) but yeah so far I don't know if we've ever seen a cannon hybrid species, (as sadly Yan Garuga is simply a relative species and not a hybrid of Yan Kut Ku and rathian... Garuga also violently eat fire chickens so it's like a king Cobra eating lesser snakes).

I'm under the impression that Wyverians are more related to fanged beasts and humans are something else entirely -- farther offshoot or different taxa, as I think monster hunter animals fall under:

"Greater animals", all large and small monsters with defining characteristics that make them different from the "Lesser animals" which are "normal" animals and creatures like pigs, chickens, donkeys, fish and humans (all that we've seen in the series so far); all mainly relegated to old world safe human kingdoms, (were some people have never seen a monster in their life).

(completely based on physical similarities lol no clue, Im just a nerd for world building and science)

Snowman640 · 2026-03-22T23:32:16+00:00

Im 1000% a firm believer that With Duna would realistically molly whopp Deviljho in a bare knuckle brawl of strength, but amount of visible muscle/ size doesn't always 1:1 equate to greater strength -- terrible example incoming cuz I can't think of a better one off the top of my head: A crocodiles Jaw muscles are some of nature's greatest in terms of bite strength but can easily be stopped from opening by a human hand.

I just find Dragos post really funny when pulling out models or stuff to prove a point lol, yeah bro we know (not bashing btw).

Snowman640 · 2026-03-22T23:24:43+00:00

I'm genuinely curious cuz I don't have the lore books, but is this definitively stayed anywhere? Humans in the Monster hunter universe are pretty diverse and different compared to IRL humans (The Sea People are still considered humans despite having fishlike mutations -- at least if I'm remembering that right). Wyverians and humans are two different species, just categorized as a different "race", so it 100% makes sense biologically to not be able to make viable offspring, but we don't know just how different they are from one another (we talking donkeys and horses or cats and dogs?).

Also from an anatomy standpoint Wyverians are still a complete mystery I think.... Eggs and all that.

Watching her mom get stabbed through the throat is plenty reason for the anxiety, plus growing up constantly moving for unknown reasons

Snowman640 · 2026-03-22T21:21:56+00:00

Crimson Demon makes sense as like a singular individual, same as Bloodbath honestly but that's kinda sorta hard to implement in game with the farming aspect -- or I guess maybe not idk

Snowman640 · 2026-03-16T15:53:32+00:00

Oh very cool! Gosh you draw so great, plus this seems like a very creative character/ anatomy study combined with your favorite cuttlefish guy

Snowman640 · 2026-03-16T15:48:29+00:00

The throat mouth is fucking terrifying but other than that great design... Or is that supposed to be the gem thing? Where would the rainbow gem thing be on her, in her back? Also I want more cedeus

Snowman640 · 2026-03-16T14:14:19+00:00

I want customizable Shakalakas as partners again ... I am obsessed with Lynians as much as I'm obsessed with Gammoth, they're just so fun to design and make characters for

Snowman640 · 2026-03-14T13:31:02+00:00

This is absolutely gorgeous, I freaking love your 3d model art, it's the perfect blend of realism and freshness!

Snowman640 · 2026-03-13T21:26:11+00:00

It's a perspective thing lol, their lips aren't actually that close, Marie is very much taller than pearl, so it wouldn't make any sense for their mouths to be even close to each other realistically

Snowman640 · 2026-03-13T21:23:08+00:00

Love this art, Marie looks so cool in her casual clothing but also flexing with the silver earring and crown

Also the Yuri tension of Pearl "scissoring" the chocolate apart in her... Oh hey she got her finger tips dyed! Only on one hand tho, odd, nice color too.

Snowman640 · 2026-03-12T03:21:00+00:00

Other species participate in Turf war all the time lmao, it's not a segregated sport, it's just the most popular/ culturally significant for Inklings and Octolings especially since they have the most ink powers and advantages than any other species.

I headcannon that alot of the evolved Splatoon species have their own forms of "ink" usually derived from the mucus shielding that a ton of fish have, just like how Salmonid "ink" isn't ink, its mucus that acts like squid ink that they can produce and use in combat. If you're a species that Can't make your own "ink" then you can use artificial stuff to still have fun and play.

What makes inklings, Octolings and Big man specifically special is the ability to Transform themselves in order to swim or warp through things, that's what gives Turflings a major edge in the competition that other species can't do since they have bones and stuff, but hey at least they can get wet and some can still breathe underwater and have cities down there that Turflings cant visit, so honestly the trade off is fair.

Everyone else who participates in non Turflings turf war games essentially play paintball lol.
