So, one year ago, after watching a let’s play of Super Spamton 64, I had the great idea to make a marionette of Spamton. (I had never made a marionette before and I knew next to nothing about Spamton). I worked on him feverishly for 3 weeks while watching several lore videos and discovering the sweepstakes. I learned so much and it was awesome. He’s got magnetic pupils, interchangeable hands, and removable glasses!
I used @decamarks’ Spamton model for reference. I also chronicled the whole process on Instagram. (Maybe I’ll turn it into a video someday) I think I could make a way better one now honestly!
The Marionette, after giving life to five kids, raising them by themself, killing anyone who hurts them, and also gives cryptic messages to those who listen:
Y’know, I was thinking about like, before the Justice League forms in this au.
Just slowly rotating Bruce meeting Clark and Diana before they start the league, maybe even help each other out.
Need another heavy hitter? Time to call in Clark! Someone mind controls Superman again? Time to call Diana! Need information about some sort of artifact? Diana is there! Want weirdly specific information that no one should know or to get into a place they can’t? Time to call in Bruce!
Need a distraction? Boy does Bruce have you covered! Need diplomacy because this alien AI is pissed? Diana pulls on her training as a princess, warrior or not. Need to seem harmless- why, there’s a sunshine alien sweetheart with the same vibes as an overgrown puppy ready to help!
Honestly it’s a surprise no one has realized they know each other yet, but then again Bruce really embodies being a cryptid and just doesn’t sit still for any potential photos. Sure there are some with Wonder Woman and Superman visible with him hidden in the shadows, but no one outside of Gotham really knows about him.
Like I am imagining their friendship being both “two extroverts adopt this introvert” and “we’re coaxing this stray cat with its dozen of kittens over no matter what”
As always, I shall implore you to check out @phoenixcatch7 as this AU is a combo of my cryptid batfam au and theirs, called Possessed Doll
How do you feel about animatronics? I was thinking about asking to draw Puppet or the Daycare Attendant from fnaf.... but thats okay if you dont want to draw them!👍
If not that, how about that terrifying bear from the movie Annihilation?
For @viarayy01-blog 's mutual gift exchange!! Merry December ^^
I saw Charlie and Puppet on your list and knew I had to draw them- your design for Charlie is just so perfect and adorable, and I thought the Puppet sweater design was perfect for this theming!
