Description
A bit different form the original but still quite similar.
With the 9th day of alien redesigns for an upcoming animated fan series I'm working on, I present you Ben's Glavanic Interconnected Nano-mechanical Kybersapien form (or a Galvanic INK form for short): MÊch-A-m0Rph (pronounced mechamorph)
I know it's a bit of a change, since in Prime continuity their species were called mechamorphs but I rly wanted to focus on the INK part in this reboot project.
So let's talk about their lore and biology. The Galvanic I.N.K. are techno-organic, gue like humanoid lifeforms, capable of upgrading, restoring, manipulating or connecting with any given technology. They have slime like appearance with neon green glowing circuitry shaped marks that stretch and interconnect all over their bodies. They're soft to a touch, with their ink like gue always moving around and shaping into various forms. Their gue doesn't leave any marks or stains, quite the opposite, instead it leaves completely dry surface after intact, very simular to Earth's liquid metals. That's becouse tho it feels and looks like a liquid, it's actually billions of microscopic techno organic organisms called NANITES. These organims share same singular consciousness that is I.N.K itself. Every I.N.K. can multiply the every one of their nanites by will to expand their body mass. Because of their techno-organic biology, nanites can control all the other tech that they can connect with and with that can even improve themselves by fusing the tech into themselves. But their whole biology (tho amazing in any way possible) is also the reason why this is one of Ben's incomplete transfortations:
The nanites themselves are techno-organic, so theoreticaly that should be a possible transformation, but the real problem comes with their consciousness. As stated before, nanites share one interconnected mind so that they can each work in harmony as cells of one big functional organism. The user had to be able not only to transform into a liquid like lifeform that is made out of billion smaller pieces, but has to have the ability to control every part of their body.
So the great creator of the Omnitrix had to make some adjustments for this transformation. He bioengineeried this transformation to a point that when the Trix-user was to transform, their consciousness would transfer into a vessel that would then be able to control the nanites. But to create the vessel and to make the vessel be able to control the nanites instead of just having a body that doesn't neither move or have the ability to keep it's shape and form, he had to first create an alpha nanite that would be able to control the cells for the user. The alpha nanite serves like a sort of a connector between the main vessel and the rest of the nanites. That way the Trix user can function as intended, capable to shift their mass and control their body the same way as every other I.N.K.
But with the creation of the vessel, the creator altered their physical appearance. Their core/vessel is now a buble of I.N.K. liquid that floates above the main body where the head would originally be at. It's alpha nanite attracts others like magnet, thus creating these tentacle like parts on their necks that constantly follow the core. Tho this may look simular to Polymorph's gravity projector its very different. While the projetor is a tool that helps polymorphs keep their shape, the vessel head on the other hand IS a part of the organism and can too change it's shape and size.
The I.N.K. are also constantly loosing parts of themselves on everyday basis (moving, walking, fusing with tech, etc). But their parts always reform and attach back to the main body.
That should do it. I tried to stick as close to the original in terms of the design, but still use some lf my creativity here'n there. In terms of color scheme I just wanted the lines to be green but also resemble the 2016 reboot, so I added some purple coloring to the liquid with some pink gloss.
But yeah hope u guys like it, I'm very proud by how he turned out. Have a great one!
