here’s the announcement video for those of you who don’t want to go to twitter
my personal favorite is the preacher guy saying “who can testify as to the wickedry of the triangle false idol”. also notable: the cipher flashing on the spine of the book translates to “DID YOU MISS ME”
and the morse code you can hear in the video translates to LET ME OUT 🫶⚠️🥰

Hana, I cannot thank you enough for all your help, support and being an incredible partner and friend on this crazy project. I hope we can have the chance to collaborate again in the future on another project. I'll never forget this experience. Getting to meet and talk to Alex Hirsch was a dream come true and one I will never, EVER forget. I hope you all enjoy what we've both created here and managed to ask him. Long Live Gravity Falls!!
Thank you again to @stephreynaart for the amazing thumbnails for our videos, @brightdrawings for the 3d Render on our teaser trailer and to Hana and their friends Rev, Lee and Reuben for making the transcript.
I went so overboard omg but I wanted to try underpainting :Dc See if you can guess what color was the base for each of em! Reasoning for design choices beneath the cut.
Teeth are retractable so as to not puncture the eye when not in use
Lashes are retractable because I couldn't figure out what else to do with them LOL they're pretty thick whiskers and so he'd have some trouble if they stayed in the way, but having them fully retracted would, I imagine, risk them getting stuck or the pores plugging with oil/dirt
Whether or not his tongue is forked varies in canon, just as his blood color does, so I just chose the ones I prefer! I do really like it when people give him blue blood but I think in subtler hues it can make him look a lil nauseous so it's easier for me to work with red
He cleans himself with his tongue because he's a gross little beast and can't just take a shower or something. Ok but really I just thought it was cute what are you a cop leave me alone
Every villain needs to be able to have claws it's like a rule somewhere I think
The second set of eyelids serve to protect the optic nerve but are mainly something I added partially for emoting purposes and partially because of how many times the animators do this thing where his lashes don't follow his lids and it drives me less insane to have a hc about it
