Roz The Wild Robot - Blog Posts

I painted Roz and her son Brightbill from “The Wild Robot” which is one of my comfort movies now. I watched it for the first time a few weeks ago once it became available on streaming. I saw the trailer while the movie was in the theatres and knew “yes I will love this” because I adore movies about robots learning to feel and it looked awesome. It was, the animation is beautiful and the story is very heart touching and I probably cried three times?? I love it so much. I’m adopting Roz as my daughter just like I’ve adopted Wall-e as my son.

So I had to make some kind of fanart and I really wanted something Wild Robot themed in my room so I made a painting.

I watched the wild robot yesterday and cried my eyeliner off! If u are able definitely give it a watch!!!! I drew Roz as a human although that kinda feels like breaking the rules...

I just watched this movie AND OMG IT BROKE ME. Very reccomend very good but I haven't cried at a movie in years ToT

WAIT WAIT WAIT

Her ACTUAL name was rozzum? I watched it in ukrainian dub and in ukrainian 'розум' (rozum) means mind/intelligence. I thought her name was intelligence unit 7134

Hey guys, new chapter for my new Wild Robot fic

https://archiveofourown.org/works/63577726

Hey, I made a fanfic. It's my very first one so please give me some input on what I could improve. Thanks y'all!!!

Guess who went to see The Wild Robot over the weekend and sobbed the entire time :D

Anyway it’s my current hyperfixation so enjoy a funny thing™️ of Roz and Fink! 🫶

Fink: How did you break your leg?

Roz, pointing at the lake: Do you see those stones?

Fink: Yes

Roz: I didn’t

more wild robot doodles the RECOs deserved more screentime honestly

(Kamen Rider au)

I found some old art made back in March, and thought I'd share them since it showed their dynamic decently well.

(When they first met, at least)

I like to think that after vontra figured out Auxilium's real identity (roz), she became extremely upset, aware that she FAILED at capturing roz at that time

She's a robot, she does robot-y things. She seeks units or targets to be retrieved back to universal dynamics either to get reconditioned and sent back to rotation or be destroyed. That's what she was made for, her programming.

Her "Destiny", if you will.

And to see herself fail at the one thing she was made for, fail at her "Destiny" would definitely tick her off in some way

This is what would ultimately lead her to convince the scientists at UD to let her be a part of "Project Archus," (don't ask how, I'm still figuring that part out) allowing her to confront roz and finally finish her task and capture her for good

While it does seem like im painting her as a villain (and she kinda is, at least for now), I see her more as a rival, similar to vegeta and shadow the hedgehog.

Aight, here goes nothin

The Wild Robot X Kamen Rider crossover AU

(Art by @hanpi_kun on Twitter)

This au has been in the works since December of last year. It's only now that I have the courage to show it here in Tumblr (please go easy on me)

I even came up with a synopsis :

"Roz, a rozzum unit longing to return to her island home, finds herself entangled in a perilous twist of fate. Unintentionally thrust into the role of humanity's unlikely hero known as "Kamen Rider", she becomes a key player in a covert project operated by one man to protect humanity's future. Now, Roz must contend with the schemes of Universal dynamics, as well as confronting a corrupted rozzum unit and her army of "Augments." Whose destructive rampage threatens to wipe mankind off the planet, as part of their mysterious "Salient Neutrality initiative."

OR

I turned roz into a power ranger because I'm fucking bored

And unironically, i think that's probably the best way to describe what kamen rider is to people who never heard of it, except instead of men in spandex, we have cyborg karate bugmen in motorcycles

Also I think it's important to note that this au takes place during "The Wild Robot Escapes", the sequel to the original book of the wild robot.

(Please excuse the poor art)

For roz's design, I decided to (or at least try) lean towards Kamen riders from the showa era, like white gloves and a scarf

I also gave her a shield as a little spin on kamen rider's usual trope of having a sword as their weapon, emphasizing her nature (or programming?) to defend. She doesn't want to fight, she wants to protect.

We've seen her willingly risk her life to protect an island full of animals. In this au, I want to take it to the next step and see if she'll risk her life once again, only this time to protect humans who are actively working against her.

Will her limiting code set her up for failure, or will she become more than what she was programmed to be, for the sake of humanity's future?

In contrast to Roz, Vontra's design took inspiration from Kamen riders from the heisei era (the era after showa). A lot more sharper edges, less clothing materials like scarves and gloves, more armor, and collars.

Much like her original body, vontra has tentacles that she can pull out on her back. (She only got four instead of five, though)

But since she was given weapons and various data in martial arts by universal dynamics (to counter Auxilium in combat), Vontra wouldn't use them at all if it proved unnecessary.

But sometimes, she'll pull them out for use as extra hands or intimidation tactics. (or just aura farming)

One more detail : the name "Archus" came from the word "arc", which represents progression and development of a character.

Hmm, wonder if that's hinting at something.

Here's a closer look at the belts

Kamen rider's transformation gear almost always consists of solely a belt that is activated by the Rider doing a pose and saying "Henshin". But for this au specifically, they work differently.

For instance, the assistance driver (roz's gear) is used to activate her combat protocols, which basically overrides her inhibition protocols, allowing her to fight properly. But in turn, it severely drains roz's power and, as a solution, limited the usage time of combat protocols to only three minutes. Leaving roz barely holding on before collapsing down, out of power.

Once it reaches 2 minutes the light at the center of the driver will start blinking red, signaling that they only have 1 minute remaining.

(Basically, think of Ultraman's color timer)

As for Vontra's, her gear basically works as an extended power core. Like roz's, it also starts blinking red. But it's not limited to time, more so as it's a measuring system of how much energy and power vontra has left. If it's red, it's time to retreat.

Ah yes, evil roz be like

"A rozzum NEVER completes it's task"

I don't got much to say about her from a design standpoint other than the foot that took way too much time to draw than I would've liked.

I specifically drew inspiration from Kamen Rider Ark-One, from Kamen Rider Zero-One.

One last thing to say about this au

The story took a few inspiration from stories like Megaman and Big Hero 6, where robot assistants became heroes and whatnot. And I thought to myself

"What if roz became one as well?"

Well that's all I got for this au

I will be sure to expand on it, flesh out the world, characters, plot, and everything else. As I have also planned to write a fanfic based on this au.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post.

Have a nice day!
