Octopus of Doom

[firstfrost]

eccentrific asked for an octopus, and noted that he should happy but creepy. Or maybe it was creepy but smiling. I forget. Anyway, that clearly suggested a Dastardly Octopus with a Monocle. I thought about giving him a handlebar moustache too, but it made his mouth confusing.

What sort of hat is a supervillain hat?

I think I'm imagining Victor von Fogg from PS238, who has a derby and a monocle. :)

He's very cute but why does he only have 2 legs?

[firstfrost.livejournal.com]

That's his Mechanical Tripod Walking Machine he's perched on (the third leg is perspective-shortened to the back). Proper supervillains need Infernal Devices like that. His legs are much littler, but there's eight.

Of course! Silly me. I can now see his legs.

Not that I get a vote, but if I did, I would vote for a knitted Top Hat of Stylish Villainy.

That is so very perfect.

Clearly he's going to have to fight it out with Raphi. Raphi has the orbital mind control lasers, but he doesn't have a monocle.

Are you still around, or should I put him in a Travel Pod?

I'm not still around. You probably figured that out by now anyway. But I got distracted by other things and haven't been replying to LJ in a timely manner.
