Hawk Moth - Blog Posts
Here’s Serpent, from my Miraculous Serpent AU! Feel free to ask anything you’d like!
The Hawk Moth/Papillon Pop doesn't come with his kwami, so I fixed that.
Some after work Instagram browsing brought up an unexpected gem today as it randomly decided to show me some automatons.
I haven't seen any since childhood, where I vaguely recall them featuring on quirky supernatural or spooky shows as creepy curiosities from time to time.
I hadn't realised that they were still made or indeed that they could be made into such beautiful creations. With serenely swimming whales, cantering horses and fluttering birds & insects.
I decided to see if I could make a basic one using bits and bobs from my room. This ended up including black card, scissors, a bamboo skewer from one of my orchids, wire and wire clippers, a thin cylindrical ice cream stick that I saved from a kulfi, and hot glue and my glue gun.
It took a bit of time to wrap my head around the (admittedly very basic) mechanics and the end result is liable to come apart at the seams if I so much as think about turning the mechanism too vigorously. But I am happy with my first attempt.
If I can figure out how to make a less slap dash mechanism then I might make a realistically painted deaths head hawk moth automaton. I am rearing some caterpillars of this species so I am ever so slightly obsessed with them at the moment. You can see the caterpillars at the top of this post and I don't think I am alone in thinking they are absolutely gorgeous little buggers.
These days I have enough thoughts and feelings about Adrien (and Gabriel Agreste and sentiadrien and everything) to write a dissertation, but art is easier
So, uh, I wrote more stuff for the all left au by @sabertoothwalrus . . .
I think this AU has (sadly) died down a little, but I'm not done with it. I will never be done—
But for real, I'm planning two more stories in this universe, both of them multi-chapter. I'm referring to them in my head as "the recovery fic" and "the prosthetic fic" (in which Adrien will not actually get a prosthetic, yes it's weird, bear with me). The prosthetic fic will probably be written first, since I have more ideas for that one, but I still hope to write the recovery fic someday. I'm also considering an epilogue, and I'll probably throw in some one-shots if I'm so inspired.
I was reading an ML fic where Ladybug mentioned being scared whenever she saw butterflies in the park, and I just couldn't get this image out of my head:
These poor kids are traumatized, somebody help them
lolllllllllllllll
@glitterpensupremacy she's the one who made the other two memes I only made the first one
It’s the big bad himself…
WIPS!!🐞🐈⬛
I was thinking of making new portraits of Marinette's fears and Adrien's freedom, I'll try to complete these drawings virtualy as soon as I can!
