The Guy Ever - Tumblr Posts
Happy marble-versary or something ‼️
It's only actually around 1 and a half years ago that I found out about Marble Hornets, and a little over 1 since I got into the fandom, but my god has this thing taken a hold of my brain. It's the biggest special interest I've had in ages. Ofc I had to draw my favorite character from anything ever, Jay Merrick, the most horrible guy on earth 🫶
Axl Low is conceptually so funny in-universe. You've got this poor guy who by all accounts is the sweetest coolest guy, but he's literally a gang leader. BUT. He leads a gang to end violent crime in his town and he does it by fighting but without netting a SINGLE CASUALTY while doing it - he just beats up all these criminals and almost every single time they're like "This guy kinda rules I'm signing up with him actually" and he SUCCEEDS in ending crime in his neighborhood doing that. Then he meets his girlfriend and she thinks he's such a weird goofy guy and she falls in love instantly. Things are Great and then he is Yeeted Through Time multiple times. He ends up a few hundred years into the future and he just kinda deals with it, maintaining a glass-half-full attitude for the majority of that time despite this being probably one of the most horrifying things that can happen to a person. No one really cares about all that though, because the guy with time powers is Very Dangerous because of the time powers. Imagine being told "That guy over there is an extremely dangerous threat to reality on a metaphysical level" and you look over and they're pointing at some guy with the Union Jack plastered all over him just DESTROYING a hamburger and he looks over and waves at you.
By Xrd and Strive he's got control of his powers, and this makes him A Very Seriously Dangerous Threat. The Original contacts him personally to deliver a message to The Fucking Gear Maker. The Gear Maker sees him cause like "Holy shit. The Axes of Time. This guy is very dangerous and we should be careful" and Axl Low shows up, asks him if he's The Famous War Criminal Who Caused All This Bullshit, and freaks out and leaves when said war criminal offers him cookies for his trouble.
Jack-O asks Sol in Strive what the biggest threat to the world is right now and he goes "Axl" with a straight face. They talk about how dangerous he could be and within 4 seconds of that conversation Axl Low drops out of Fucking Nowhere onto their Speeding Motorcycle cause he needs Sol's help to save some innocent people on a hunch. How do you not shit yourself? I'll tell you how - because Axl Low is the equivalent of accidentally tripping into hell and meeting the devil and it turns out that the devil is actually just a fluffy golden retriever who has NO idea what he's doing and just wants pats like any other normal dog. Except he is just really powerful so people make assumptions. "Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely" not my boy Axl Low. Decided against doing what he wanted to get what he wanted most because he wasn't going to erase an entire timeline to get home, even though he easily could've justified it as "Not my problem, not my fault, this is awful." The second he has full control over his time powers he uses it to either help people or get fast food really quickly so he has time for a stupid quip after a round. What a fucking hilarious character dude imagine if you met father time and he was just like "can I borrow some cash for McDonald's?" because that's pretty much how he acts. And you're just bewildered so you're like sure, hand him a 20, and you blink and father time came back cause he got you some fries. I fucking adore this man.
!! I HAVE NONE OF THE STUFF OR EXPERIENCE !!
So I'm working on/wanting to make the Poltergust 5000 from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, which has been one of my favorite games ever since I first got it in 2013 or 2014. (Having favorite status does not make it immune to me forgetting about its existence for months at a time. No, I have not finished this game.)
My original plan was to use one of those toy or real vacuums that everyone else uses, however there are a few problems with that.
1, I am a fursuit handler and general handler/costume help in my group of friends. So I would be really impractical for me to have a big thing on my back and 2+ other bags on me. So it needs to be able to open to store stuff.
2, The vacuums tend to be really small and really uncomfortable, and I have major sensory issues, especially with my back, so that just wouldn't do.
So I talked to this guy I met yesterday at work, while we were waiting on a task to do, and he suggested those bubble cat backpack things. I got super excited because that would work perfectly!! It's big and comfortable enough, and I can hold mine and my friends' stuff while we're walking around!!
So I ordered a gray one. The plan is to paint the clear part red and then figure something out for the button panel and vacuum hose. I want the hose to be detachable for easy storing, repair, and so I can use the bag without it.
So, my first thought was cutting a hole for the hose and putting a thing that the hose can connect to in its place. I'm not exactly sure how that would work, so I'm getting a second opinion on that. My other thought is gluing the attachment piece onto the acrylic itself, so I don't have to deal with cutting it.
There's also magnets, but I'm not sure if that would work.. or if I'll be able to get my hands on some that are strong enough.
That leaves the button panel, the hose itself, the wheels, and the actual flashlight/vacuum head.
From the cosplay crafting videos I've watched, using a black vacuum hose with cut-up pvc pipe works best. Or is at least what they all use. So I might follow their lead on that one. I'm gonna talk to my dad about all this to see if he has any thoughts. He's not a cosplay guy, but he has a garage with tools, so..
I have no ideas for everything else.. And unfortunately, I'm incredibly picky with a mile long list of things I don't like(over-exaggerating). I don't want to do the big big buttom that I've seen. I'm not a fan of it.. I don't know what else I could do, though. I have a short time frame and a small budget.
Oh!! Another thing!! I want to find a way to attach the vacuum head to the bag body so I can go hands-free from time to time. Like while I'm eating or guiding people or something.
If anyone who sees this has any ideas, I'd love to hear them because this is my first time doing any of this. That being said, I will be updating on the progress of the Poltergust 5000.
I had to fight with Amazon to order it, so my mom did for me, so I'm not sure when the bag is getting here, but some other stuff is arriving tomorrow, so hopefully then as well!!
