From seeing the notebooks that you made, you might like my lastly made instructable, I am making a step by step soon for a regular sized sketchbook

My sketchbook looks great. I got 18 professional design markers for christmas, and the plastic holder they came in is falling apart..... So I'm making a holder for them next (from cardboard, of course). I intend for the holder to be radial, and with the ability to revolve around an axis. I'll probably make three 60-degree cover pieces (each smaller than the next) that cover the holder, and can fit inside eachother. A handle on the largest outermost will probably come as well. I can't wait to get started!

Finished the marker holder. Now I'm just refining the prototype, and adding details. It'll be amazing.

Okay, I'm looking out the window of my quarters, and I'm pretty certain there's a cloud/swarm of gnats, or mayflies, or mosquitoes swarming outside... I'm getting the shotgun, and the swords out.

Had an idea today. I think I'm going to make armor that attaches to the outside of the plates on my costume. There are several types of armor- air (pneumo)-white fire (pyro)-red combustion (dynamo)-orange shock (electro)-yellow nuclear (nuclear)-yellow green chemical (venom)-green ice (cryo)-light blue sound (phono)-turquoise water (hydro)-blue time/space (chrono)-blue violet ectoplasmic (phantom)-violet electromagnetic (polar)-pink silver (murcury)-grey light (photo)-mixed/different colors dark (black)-no colors (off) I simply have to make attachable pieces of armor for each one, and strap it to the costume whenever I want to have an armor type, and change the helmet iris/suit LED color to whatever I want. So if I want to be "venom", all I have to do is make "venom" armor that goes on top of the suit, and connect battery to the LED's in the "venom" armor. (yes, I am a little obsessed aren't I)

Do you have any idea where I could find foam blocks? I need some for the head. The head frame I made (shown somewhere below) is too small (the body's too small too, but I can adjust that), and I need to redo it. Any idea of something I could carve the chape out of, fiberglass, and then pick/pluck/or even burn the inside away with?
Jun 9, 2009. 9:03 PMeyebot117 (author)
says:
Yeah, just something that holds it's shape, can be fiberglassed, and can be picked away from, or burned out with acetate... Either that, or the stuff that they use for flower arrangements-they stab the foam with the ends of the flowers so that they stay. Something like that would work wonders... I might check my nearest craft store as soon as I can, but I don't really know what's best to use for this sort of thing.....

I could use green plastic from 2 liter bottles as the base armor and just rivet the pieces together. The needles would have to be made either from plexiglass shards that are dyed green, or from long thin pieces of green bottle platsic. The swords would be plexiglass that is cut, sanded, dyed, and glued onto a(cardboard)hilt(built in LED's of course). The backpack would have 6 tubes coming from it-2 green (needles/crystals), 2 orange (arms/acid), and 2 pink (corrosive gas/mist). The shoulder pauldrons need to have a circular (rotating) drum mounted on it. Made from the same green plastic as the armor, and has needles glued on it, it spins around. The grenades could be made from two colored water balloons pressed/glued together, and the gas grenade (pink tube shaped thing) can be made by cutting the ends off of a 1 liter plastic bottle, adding caps, and filling it with dyed water.

I think I could make a set of armor for each power type, and probable a weapon or two as well.
May 14, 2009. 9:19 PMeyebot117 (author)
says:
Hmm. I think that if I want to do that, I need to finish my stupid costume, make one or two different sets of armor for it, and make interchangable parts for each type. As for the weapons, I think I should make a machine that holds the gun, closes a door, flashes a strobe (once), makes fog, and the gun is gone. Like it's teleporting the gun somewhere else. That way, I can take parts off of existing guns to make my new ones, and I don't have to keep buying/scavenging materials for these useless props.

As soon as the costume is finished, I'm going to make VENOM armor first-he he. (Green is my favorite color anyway)

Finished the head frame yesterday... I cut about a frillion (new number-a million zeroes on it) triangular-shaped pieces of cardboard for covering it until I can put fiber glass on it. I asked my dad to look for a piece of cardboard tall enough to fit my body and wide enough to wrap once around my waist... He'll never even look. Oh, well-I suppose I could leech a piece off of my art teacher tomorrow morning-if she has any. Anyway, here's the head frame-

says:
Yeah. It's too small. I need to redo it! The body's too small too! (I almost can't get in and out of it!)

I made my Tommy 20 instructible, published it, and I can't find it anywhere but on my profile. Is there an error? Why can't I find it?!? Rrrrrrrrrr.... Oh, well.
May 6, 2009. 8:22 PMeyebot117 (author)
says:
Okay. My parents (both) had errands to do, so I braved up and I modded my Tommy 20 gun. I cut a slit which allows any darts that don't catch to continue revolving around intstead of causing a jam. I also hot glued those rubber bands (twice) around the drive wheels. I closed it up and it shoots a LOT better! But, I've opened it up so much that the holes that the screws that hold it together go in are stripped out. Smooth, no threads. Well, so I tried a bigger screw. I put it in the hole, and it didn't go in all the way because the had of the screw was too big for the hole. And if I wasn't stupid enough, I put ANOTHER one in the hole next to it!!! AHHHHH!!! It must've taken at LEAST an hour to push the screws out from the other side (I also made the holes a little bigger in the procces). So, what I'm going to do (possibly) tomorrow is grind the heads of a few wood screws so that they ACTUALLY fit in the holes all the way. Then, all I have to do is thread them in, and I'm done!!! Hope it works....

Okay, I'm so busy right now. I WAS working on my costume, but the head's too small, so I'm going to re-do that with foam, but-I DON'T HAVE FOAM! So, I'm working on my VENOM armor and weapons for my costume. I WAS going to make a (working) needle rifle (out of a Nerf gun-actually it's Air Blasters), but the gun I bought is really cheap, sucks, and jams up too much; I WAS going to open it up and mod it a little, but my dad told me NOT to open it up unless there was something wrong with it-I opened it up anyway (he doesn't know about it-shhhh!!!) because it's MY gun, I KNOW what I'm doing, and a crappy gun practically IS broken (to me). I can't seem to actually make it shoot without jamming up, so I put that aside and now I'm just making the needle rifle a useless prop. I got most of what I needed today (plus a few things for other guns later), but now I need wood for the body of the gun (and an easy way to cut it) and I don't have THAT either..... I WAS going to make the two plexiglass swords I need as well, but WE DON'T HAVE ANY OF THAT HERE EITHER!!!!! AHHHHHHH!!! I NEED MATERIALS!!! I NEED TOOLS!!! I NEED PERMISSION!!!! Oh well. I need to do my homework.

Found a length of tube for the barrel of the VENOM needle rifle. Think it'll work. Need to buy a dart gun to mod soon... Also foud some springs (could I use corks instead?) and canisters.

I think I'm going to mod a Air Blasters dart gun (Tommy 20) with green (glowing?) suction cup darts inside my VENOM needle rifle. It'll go in front of the needle wheel thing and the gun will open up for reloading. I'm also going to make two green lexan VENOM longswords that are lit by LEDs. They look similar to the longswords on The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.... Can't wait to start.

I'm temporarily putting my costume on hold until I can get a hold of some foam blocks for my helmet. In turn, I'm making a "holoclipboard" that I could take "notes" on while my human subjects do stupid things with my instructables projects while I observe them. I made a white LED pen today that is wired to the clipboard. I'm going to use a piece of clear/opaque plexiglass (don't know which one I want to use) as the clip board (also lit up with white LEDs). This is just a cool prop that might make an interesting instructable (light tracing clipboard). I also got interested in "steampunked" weaponry today. I'm currently making a VENOM needle rifle that actually shoots green (possibly LED) Nerf darts (hopefully with suction cups) instead of actual chemical "needles". I need an automatic Nerf gun though, and I need some more green LEDs. Hopefully, I'll have the design to where firing darts makes the gun appear to be firing "needles" (green illuminated plexiglass spikes) and "regrowing" them. Design first, pics later.

I'm thinking about doing some of the indymogul stuff for my instructables flicks. I might join YouTube and post them there first, then make instructables and post them here! I'll film in my room, in my basement, and outside. I might have friends come over and be my guine pigs-I mean my "test subjects". They can be the ones whose hearts I rip out/ decapitation/test my instructables. This'll be fun.

Cut the body tonight. Looks horrible comared to the illustration, but I can give it more shape later. It's really fun to get in and out of it-imagine a tube with the upper..............sixth cut away from it to make a cardboard ring. Cut semicircles out of it where your arms come out of it. Put it on over your head and rest it on your shoulders. Take the bigger piece and cut semi circles the line up with the other semicircles. Step into the big piece. Pull the big tube piece up until the two pieces touch. It's fun. Barely fits-let's hope I don't gain any weight any time soon. The head is still too small!!! I showed everything to my dad, and he said to do two things-redo the head, and use styrofoam blocks to carve it out. Put the fiberglass on top, let it dry, and pluck away the foam. I still have to redo the head, and I already started covering it with wedges-one fourth of the upper part-3 sticks of hot glue(!)-I DO need to try something else. But what blows is that I don't have any styrofoam blocks at the moment, and so the project is going to sit, and sit, and get stale. I HATE it when that happens.

Today I began construction on my costume. I started on the head first. I made a flat ring first, and then hot glued the frame for the iris and the upper dome of the head to it. To day or tomorrow, I'll cut the triangles to make the shape of it. I don't know if it's big enough though... I think I'll be able to see out of it, which makes me happy. Making the body of the costume will be hard however. I think I'm just going to make a cardboard tube the size of my abdomen, cut arm holes in it, make a bottom for it (with leg holes), and when I put fiberglass on it, I'll add more cardboard/foamboard to make the shape of it. I might have to redo the head if it isn't strong enough.... If I DO have to redo it, I'll use the foamboard instead of cardboard (foamboard is sturdier).
