Your Kaiju!Newt design looks so cool. How does he end up like that?
Thank you so much!!!! And sorry for taking so long to reply :v
Newt has been locked up for months, and Jake Pentecost is becoming desperate, because they're making no progress with getting info out of Newt. Since the events of the film, the real Newt hasn't resurfaced once, and everyone is convinced that he's just an empty husk now.
When Hermann discovers that they're going to start torturing Newt as a last resort, he manages to get a final visit with him and makes a desperate last plea to Newt to do something, anything, terrified tears in his eyes.
(i tried drawing it but it looks kinda shit and i gave up halfway, oh well)

(you can't see it in these panels but Newt is still restrained)
Newt has no reaction, and Hermann gets dragged out of Newt's cell.
But unbeknownst to anyone, Newt did actually hear Hermann, and it gives then the strength try something new...
And that is all I'll say for now! Sorry for not actually answering your only question yet, but if I manage, I'd like to try and draw what happens, hope you're ok with waiting some more :]
