The Mechs - Blog Posts

Reblogging this because as a post-DTTM Mechs fan I love finding these things <33

Also, the TBI patch says "all aboard the flying space train" while the text under that does say "all aboard the viking space train" like OP figured out :)

(I never thought I'd be using my knowledge of runes to get happy at art and products that put in the effort to actually write intelligible phrases instead of putting on random scribbles, but here we are /pos)

going through the archived email broadcasts and I am once more filled with the desperate longing to have been a mechs fan at the time. I want to go to the art bar hnoc premiere :(

I did manage to dig up the bandcamp entry for the recording of that concert however. will it let me listen to it all from there? who knows

ALSO. HIGHLY IMPORTANT

DOES ANYONE HAVE RECORDS OF WHAT ANY OF THESE LOOKED LIKE

@mechanismslorearchive

🎵🎵WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A DRUNK SPACE PIRATE🎵🎵

does anyone have the clip where, before introducing cinders song either marius or johnny say something along the lines of "no one's love is as stronger than rose and cinders, except those two moons that were so inlove they crashed into eachother" and then someone else shouts back "no that was gravity!"

do you think the toy soldier (the mechanisms) enlisted in dr. steel's military at some point in time

I think there should be more recognition of the fact that the death of all the mechanisms take place hundreds, sonetimes thousands of years apart from eachother

and on top of that they dont experience time linearly? so can they hypothetically like exist in a point of time after their death???

i feel like i should make a cover of ballad o'lil lemon (without *that* verse) but i feel like it would be sacrilege or smthn

Sigyn likes building the lego sets Loki likes the minifigures

High Noon Over Camelot, Red Dead Redemption cross-over fanfic.

I am so attracted to Doc Carmilla idec shes so 😍😍

Alice just interrupted Majors Hatter and Hare's date completely drenched in other peoples blood, and they're just chill with it but ig thats Alice in Wonderland for ya

i think there should be more major hatter/major hare fanfics.

I would like to go one step further from the 'jonny just pulled out a harmonica after his dads death' thing and say that he did that for all of his kills. even the casino.

i like to think the moon kaiser was wearing nike sneakers, so jonny was trying to chew through the shoe...

I think that Dr. Pilchard is bald

So are Oedipus's eye sockets just like stuffed with two of these bad boys or what

3d model of the Aurora

Here’s another thing I made for the Mechs. I based it off the picture of the Aurora on the mechs wiki, as well as the schematics drawn by the person who played Nastya. I made it to include the solar sail thing mentioned in both. Although since it isn’t clear exactly what a solar sail is, its basically just an umbrella. Under a read more since its a pretty long post.

I’m proud of the sail being functional. That took a lot of googling to figure out! I also made the sail removable, with a little insert that gives it a cap I guess. The paint definitely needs some touch ups, but not bad for about 5-ish days of work I think?

... please validate my effort? (TvT)

Hey, does anyone have a good picture/drawing of The Aurora from the outside, preferably in color? I’m thinking of trying to make a 3d model of her, since I have lots of airdry clay to spare. (I know there’s a picture of the aurora on the mechs site, but the lighting makes it a bit hard to see the details of the ship.)

Well, I know I’m massively late to the party, but I wanted to share this!

This is a mini wall hanging I handmade of the Mechs logo! I made it because I didn’t know about the mechs until well after they stopped performing, so I had no chance to get any Mechanisms merchandise or anything. So I decided to make something myself!

Unfortunately, no one I know irl is also a fan, so I figured Id share it here, since this is my only social media. I’m pretty proud of it, considering I had to make the pattern myself, do my best to color match with limited supplies, and hand sew that hemmed backing piece. 

“My friends, my people, my flock; I have had a vision - a vast fiery orb, floating in an endless void, and there, so small, so fragile, us! But falling, falling, falling into the flames!”

“The first was Snow, who managed to crawl to safety, badly injured, though he lost much of herself in the process.”

(Art under the cut, contains blood)

new TBI headcanon: jonny, tim, ashes and brian were sharing the cell right next door. lyfrassir chose not to speak to them because there’s nothing in the universe that would make that experience worth it

Ragnarok III: Strange Meeting in a nutshell

Loki: Where you headed?

Thor: Gonna kill Odin with this hammer I found, you?

Loki: Gonna kiss my wife.

Both: *give the other a thumbs up as a sick-ass guitar solo plays*
