Hi friendslist! How are you? You've been kind of awesome. Thank you for the books and the random conversations and the WIP-viewing and just everything.

I don't have anything really exciting for you in return, but this is what I've been giggling over all week. Maybe you'll find it amusing too.

( Real life story. Twelve-year-old mentality required. )

Also, I was going through my old lab books and found this drawing of a radio telescope. That experiment had some long calibration procedure we had to sit through, which is why I was drawing it, I guess. Anyway. It needed more Spock.

( I'd totally curl up in a radio dish with him. )

So when I signed up for Prompt-A-Mod day at Ship Wars, one of the options under "medium" was underwater basketweaving. Then somebody requested Rand/Chapel, "any medium", and um I couldn't resist.

This is only basket I know how to weave, based on those paper heart valentine things you make in grade school. It's "underwater" because I used watercolor paint, GET IT?

Yeah.

Not entirely SFW because there's clearly some gropery going on.

( Basketry! )

So. The current Ship Wars prompt is porn. PORNZ. Which I cannot write to save my life (I tried, I did, and yeah that was weird and now I want Spock/Pike, but that's another story).

Then I started thinking about IDIC - Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations - which seems to me a) potentially porny, and b) a damn good philosophy.

And melithiel said I should do strange alien porn.

The upshot of all this is that I'm in the middle of making strange alien porn out of clay. Eventually, I'd like to get some nice photographs of these clay things with IDIC somewhere on them. There's no purpose to this, other than my own amusement, but. BUT. Here's where you come in, dear friends: I'm stuck. I need, for lack of a better word, art-betas. I've been putting some of this on team_crackship but figured I'd alternate here and there to avoid spamming.

These are works in progress. What I'm looking for, from you, is feedback both general & specific. General, as in, are they porny, do they work, is there anything off about them. Specific, as in, some of them have particular questions.

Blanket warning: this is PORN and therefore NSFW. It has clay people with BITS and also things that are STRANGE. But I hope it's, well, pretty, for porn.

Preview!


IDIC #1: Tentacle Guy
Medium: water-based red clay, oil-based white clay
Status: closest to being finished. The clay's still wet and can be played with.

( Tentacley )

IDIC #2: Andorian/MaybeRomulan
Medium: red & white water-based clay
Status: Mid-modeling. Having some issues.

( Because I LIKE Andorians. )

IDIC #3: Flowerpants
Medium: white water-based clay
Status: Chillin.

( She's called flowerpants because she has...flowers...where she doesn't have..pants. )

IDIC #4: I don't even know.

( Still brainstorming, mostly. )

So that's all I have. Any suggestions or ideas or comments are welcome.

So here's the story: st_respect is hosting a Ship Wars. I joined the illustrious and bizarre Team Crackship and suddenly became productive, which was unexpected but sort of awesome. I like having my stuff archived somewhere, so I'll be posting old Crackship stuff here once its round is over.

Strange arts first.

( Possibly NSFW. Also image-heavy. And seriously WEIRD. )

"Dammit, kid", says Bones.

"Dammit, Bones", says me.



( Provocative sensor-licking. )

Title: The Less-Giant Post of Spock-In-Silly-Outfits
Character: guess.
Rating: G
Summary: Tutu! and Cheerleader!Spock.

( Nothing worse than...a little tulle? )
