So Iβve been cooking up this pacific rim AU for the terror and finally got some more sketches done. Right now itβs just doodles and messy ideas but hopefully I can do more scene redraws from the movie and maybe even comics!
Right know I have: Franklin as marshal, the four doctors in K-science, the terror lieutenants as LOCCENT Mission Controllers, and everyone in the sketches above as rangers. Collins is ex-ranger turned J-Tech officer cause of β¨traumaβ¨ Crozier is also an ex-ranger but heβs off somewhere being drunk at the moment.
If anyone has any ideas for other characters, jaegars or kaiju, please lemme know! I wanna keep adding to this π

Hi everyone! I wanted to officially make a closing post for Cold Boy Tapes 2026, since I finally have the time.
There were over 100 entries for this event, with I think my final count as of right now being 123 playlists of some sort being shared. That's SO MANY. I do not know how to convey my gratitude to everyone who participated and still will- after all we now have literal hours of music to discover, rediscover, and enjoy! In my wildest dreams I could not have imagined this event being so popular.
Thank you everyone who has enjoyed some Cold Boy Tapes, you playlist makers out there are doing incredible work and there are so many playlists now that live rent free in my mind. I cannot thank everyone enough.
If there are any late entries anyone wants to share, make sure to tag this blog @cold-boy-tapes or you can always message me here or @bell-swamp-fitzjames - I know there's an end date but like whatever, come message me in January and we can still talk Terror and music. You can also check out my side blog @terrorpalooza which has Terror edits by various users and some other fanchellas reblogged there (tho I'm really slacking on that). I also have a neocities fan web site for all things The Terror (2018) and music if anyone wants to check that out.
I'll say up front I hope to run this event again next year- I am open to feedback if anyone has any.
I know Terror fans can look forward to @lieutenantfest coming in July (July 6th to be specific) & then for my music fans I'm going to yes once again say everyone should try to check out Pan Arctic Vision come October 2nd or when October 2nd passes of this year, you should come to my main blog and click on the VOD of the livestreams when I post about it.
Thank you everyone for such an incredible time! <3 - cig

Tomorrow is Father's Day (in the USA) so I absolutely had to make a playlist for The Most Important Dad In The Terror, Aja. I miss my Dad who passed away a little over six years ago, so a lot of my thoughts of Aja is inspired by my own Dad. I also imagine this playlist is a mix of what Aja listened to and what Silna listens to when she wants to remember him and cry a little.
