Still much to do on it, and I figured out how to make the trigger less tricky. Needs fine tuning, cleanup, and decorating but I'm almost done my prototype. Boy has this been a learning experience!




In the mean time:

Trick or Treating was a blast!



Rorschach says: It's not safe practice to drive with an infant on your lap.

Fffffff so I'm sitting here at the laundromat. Which says FREE WIFI. But for some reason they have anything messenger-like blocked. So that means I can't access the pchat, the DD chatroom over at Deviantart, or AIM or AIM Express, or anything of consiquence. I even made the mistake of logging out of DA and now I can't sign back in. THANKS LANDROMAT. YOU MAKE THIS HOUR OF SITTING HERE DOING NOTHING SO GREAT. So much for bringing my laptop with. Rabble rabble.

So since I can't do more productive things while my unmentionables are spinning in public view, I'll give a little update on my halloween costume.

No photos for public view yet, but I'm hoping I'll get to the point where I can post something this weekend. For those who just tuned in on this crazyass project I've now put a good fourty hours into (Between R&D and machining etc.) I'm building a working model of Rorschach's grappling gun.

Why?

Mostly because when I told my dad I wanted to make one for my costume he replied with "It's so dissapointing if it doesn't really shoot >:| "

Upgraded the springs since the first design, so now it's looking like it may have a good 15 feet launch. Need to finish some bits still before I can test it properly and tell you for sure.  Materials will include: Various plastics, aluminum, wood, brass, steel springs and parts, and my favorite bit about this whole thing so far is that a garbage can lid was used to trace one of the curves. Which? I aint tellin'. Just the fact a garbage can is used as a tool in the construction of a Rorschach anything is pretty hilarious to me.

Like I said, hopefully some photos I can share this weekend. I swear this thing is the coolest.

Been roped into these practices by simshocking and probably should do more of them. If you guys have any suggestions for master works to watchmenitized, please gimme suggestions! All created thanks to the Watchmen Pchat Four pictures after the cut. Artistic Nudity warning.

I made PAYDIRT at Good Will yesterday- $3 pants and $12 jacket. Only thing I'm missing now is the gloves. Probably going with some cheap black leather gloves I can reuse later as winter gloves (Not that I'll need them in the desert here but that's beside the point.) Tossed on the costume today and went to play with our neighbor's dogs. Here is the result:

Hey since I'm happy putting fanart on this account and stuff, I made a new account just for anything else that might not make it to Deviantart. Concept sketches, doodles, unfinished paintings/ works in progress, etc. So if you guys want to see non watchmen art by me go check out bilioussketch!

Also look at this adorable thing I drew with the fabulous jackiemei - everyone with me: D'awwwww!

Been super busy but still the pchat's keeping me painting which has been fun. Some stuff you may or may not have seen before.

Finally got some photos of my Rorschach costume in progress. These are mostly just for my reference since the only thing that's really "ready" is the hat and mask. Figured I'd post them up to share my progress with all of you.

Title: Rorschach's Ice Cream Adventure
Characters/Pairings: Rorschach/ a Pedophile
Summary: Rorschach buys ice cream for children and goes skipping in the park.
Rating/Warnings: R for general graphicness of Rorschach's ramblings.
Disclaimer: Watchmen belongs to Alan Moore. I'm so sorry, man.
Notes: After my last fic, was challenged by a friend with this prompt. I said I would do it and make it completely in character and fully justified within those parameters. Here is the result.
Edit: Additionally, if I were to pick a whistle for the end, I'd choose "In the Hall of the Mountain King"- see M.

Characters/Pairings: Rorschach/ A cat
Summary: It is as it sounds like.
Rating/Warnings: R for general graphicness of Rorschach's ramblings.
Disclaimer: Watchmen belongs to Alan Moore. I'm so sorry, man.
Notes: Saw a lot of fanfictions listed with the description: "Rorschach adopts a cat" in some form or other. Haven't read any of them. Wrote this instead.

Was told about a Watchmen Pchat. Wasted the afternoon being totally unproductive as a result.

And people kept leaving empty canvas space. I soon made sure something was done about it.

dr_oil's Rorschach got the brunt of my procrastination.

Doodled before bed. At two AM this sort of thing is hilarious to me.

First LJ only post!
Another chibi. Eventually I'll do the whole cast. Eventually.

He totally is. And so I drew this for an Easter contest on DA just to be spiteful to those who disagree and drew him painting eggs to look like owls. You know it's adorable.

One of my older Watchmen Pieces. Trying to pace out my uploads until I have new-newish stuff (hopefully soon) Also I'm debating throwing some color on this doodle (Done at the same time as the Workin' in the Rain pic) :

Cause I love the rain.

A doodle I did at my uncle's house I just kept working on for some reason. He's got that crazy person look of determination. I love that guy.

 

This is what I think of your watchmen slash, Internet.

Yeah, take it. Don't act like you don't want it.

Done during that period without a tablet nor scanner.  

There's more Watchmen watercolors posted up on my Deviantart from the same period. This was just my favorite from the batch.

Besides the space squid of course.

I'll do more eventually.  If you guys have any specific requests please let me know. Got a silly idea for an Adrian/Bubastis one already. X)

  

 I haven't used my Live Journal since sometime two years ago, which I made one entry after not having touched it since 2005. I figure now is the time to start using it for SOMETHING. And so. For now until I abandon it again, it will become a dump place for whatever my current fandom of the moment is. 

For now? Watchmen crap. Lots of it. Expect doodles and scribblings and all sorts of shenanigans to come. This way I can keep some of it off of my Deviantart account at least.  I start you off with some Rorschach.
