Did some drawing tests on eyes using the characters from @therealandian's ReDeath / Search Through The Stars AU! The first one is Major Jonathan Sims of General White's rebellion, the (former) Archivist of his world and a newborn Mechanism (thanks Carmilla...)! My idea for the almost camera-like sclera comes from @trans-jon-rights's fanart of the same character, which helped really hammer home how unsettling a Mechanism would be to look at when exposed. No wonder Gunpowder Tim has glasses of some sort in most fanart variations... I plan to space out the release times between each art so I can work on more of my own characters, but for now, it seems The Eye wants more. Have fun guessing who is next~

The artistry it took to make these puppets... Amazing.

Heres a personal tma headcanon of mine involving the mechanisms

So we've all heard of the headcanon that John was in the Mechanisms band when he was in college. A classic, I love it. We also know that in said band theres Jessica Law as the Toy Soldier, who then also features in tma as Nikola Orsinov

My headcanon is that John was in the Mechanisms and close friends with Jessica but they grew appart once he joined the institute... and then Nikola Orsinov killed Jessica and stole her voice.

"I dont even have a voice box- had to borrow this one" Imagine John being tortured by a monster who wears the voice of your once friend as a mockery of their death. What then

[artromanthur-lester]

I really like the headcanon that mechs exist in the tmaverse and Jon is their former vocalist. Also Gerry is a mechs' fan. I don't know how they got put in the same room though

Idiots in love x Cosmic Love

Danny has had a crush on his online friends for years. His first online friend, SuperManSuperFan, had originally become his friend when they played Doomed together online a few years ago. SuperManSuperFan, or Super, as Danny called him, was funny and nice. Super was his main escape from the trauma at home, and soon became his escape from the expectations and the ghosts and the shooting and the fear.

Danny didn’t know when talking to Super became safe. He didn’t know when it became easier to do things when he imagined Super’s commentary in his head. He didn’t know when hearing Super’s voice caused his body to relax, and his mind to clear. He didn’t know, but it was already too late by the time he realized it.

Danny’s crush on his other online friend, BloodoftheBat, was different. They met on Tumblr, both posting art. Danny was learning to draw, since the accident caused mobility problems in his hands, and Jazz recommended it as a way to both process his trauma and trying to keep mobility intact in his hands.

BloodoftheBat was different than Super. Blood was blunt and open, but didn’t lie. Blood quipped back but understood when things weren’t to be written. Blood and Danny traded art prompts and pieces when sleep was too hard and the dark memories were too strong.

Danny had mentioned them to each other, but neither one really seemed to like it. Super always redirected the conversation to something else, and Blood would get snippy. He didn’t understand, but he didn’t mind.

(It wasn’t like he didn’t feel the same when Blood mentioned his friend who inspired his art pieces, or when Super mentioned his best friend Damian. It wasn’t like he didn’t know that cold rush up his spine and the lump in his throat.)

(Danny didn’t want to examine why he felt like this. He knew Jazz would say something about anxious attachment or codependency, and Danny didn’t want to hear it.)

He just hopes he can still talk to them while his parents took him with them to go to Lex Luther’s gala, who apparently was a distant relative of Vlad.

(Danny just hoped this billionaire was less gross.)

(Damian hated going to galas. He would much rather be spending time with his pets, on patrol, or messaging online with his friend BeyondtheStars. At least this time Jon would be able to sit with him as they avoided the idiots and social climbers, even if he couldn’t stop talking about his online friend.)

@jonmartinweek day 9: free day/ au day

I didn't really have much time but I wanted to at least finish the entire week so...welp, have some Mechs! Jon ft. Mechs Fan Martin

The day i don't include at least a hint of mechs Jon is the day I've been replaced by the Not-them

I had a very specific vision of Jon coming in to work in full out Mechs gear and Martin immediately enters gay panic mode the first time he sees it

Meanwhile the entire archives crew is wondering why their boss dressed up as a steampunk space pirate to work

[candlecoo-sideb-art]

Jon with a sword is giving me life right now, I'm so glad I stumbled upon this image again–

I honestly love Jon's sword and the event it relates to.

plus if Martin is allowed to have a big gun then Jon is allowed to have a sword.

Set shortly after MAG92.

With a burned hand and an healing cut on his throat, John is in no condition to take care of himself. Tim finds him on the verge of tears in his office, after a failed attempt at tying his hair that resulted in the reopening of his wounds. So, for reasons outside Tim’s understanding, he impulsively decides to take him home, help him wash up and finally do his hair in a simple braid.
