Art: The Equation  
This is my 2nd [livejournal.com profile] paintedspires prompt. I commited manip. I haven't manipped in 3 years, so please keep in mind that I went a little crazy while searching for images and applying arm hair. Most of the time making this was spent browsing the internet looking for Rockstar pictures.

I want to sleep way too late, too, thinking I had to post the image yesterday.

My prompt was "Math Prof Rockstar" and lemme tell you, I strayed a little bit. I wanted to do the Team as a band and I figured since I couldn't get that prompt, I'd just do John as a Rockstar. A smart Rockstar. Which then morphed to John being a 2nd grade Math prof who does a little lazy music in the spare time. And who has a smart boyfriend named Rodney who is being send to a city in another galaxy and there aren't many free spaces there.
But there is this deal. If you manage to solve this really difficult equation to find out the 8th digit to dialing the gate, you will be able to join. And of course he wants to join Teyla and Ronon on their many heroic adventures he has heard so much about.
But now john looks more defeated than succeeding.

Books on the shelves include
  • Math like an ancient by Oma
  • The mechanics of the Stargate by Sam Carter
  • Understanding Ancient by Daniel Jackson
  • Basics of Physics by Rodney McKay
  • I had ancient in my head by Jack O'Neil

Unfortunately the books were to small, but maybe you can find one of them and actually read what's on it.

Eeee, that is really cool! There's a strange unreal feel to it, like it's a virtual reality more than a real room, that works very well, like John's at home but not at home in his home... And the backstory cracks me up, very sweet. You can do it, John! Find the 8th Symbol!

(any chance of a larger version of the bulletin board? So many nifty little details, I'd love a closer look!)

Heeee. I think having it look like a real room would have been kind of boring. It started that way at least and I just liked this a lot better.

And he has to find that Symbol, because obviously he cannot make Rodney stay and not follow his dream. He'd resent himself forever!

And the bulletin board isn't larger, I'm afraid. :(
