Real Life Magic!: Make Your Own Rorschach Mask With Actually Morphing Designs

I know what you're thinking, but no, that's not a Juggalo. It's a homemade Rorschach mask that actually changes designs when worn. How does it work? Thermochromic paint. I don't even know what that is but now I want my whole bedroom painted with it!

Using Thermochromic paint pigment and clear screen printing base, you can now make an ink blot mask that changes like the character Rorschach from the movie the watchmen. As you breath in and out, the color of the mask changes from black to white wherever the wearer's breath hits it and warms it to a point above 86 degrees F.

The video tutorial is after the jump, along with a couple other videos I found on Youtube of people who've made similar masks. Admittedly, they're pretty awesome. I'm probably gonna make one and use it to rob a bank. "I dunno, it was a guy with a sock over his head -- looked like there might have been a winged devil painted on it. Which -- does that mean I have daddy issues?"

Hit the jump for the videos.

Thanks to Harry, who made a functional Doctor Manhattan suit but is embarrassed to wear it because his wiener shows. ADD A BANANA HAMMOCK, FOOL!

    This is a custom-molded chess set by Ben Howard (NOT Ron) featuring a bunch of different characters from the Zelda franchise. Need some help naming them all? WELL TOO BAD. Just kidding, I wouldn't leave you hanging like that. Or would I? I'd sneak out on you right in the m... / Continue →

    This is a LEGO ship in a bottle built by Julia Morley. There's a worthwhile time-lapse video of its construction after the jump, which is pretty impressive. FIRE THE CANNONS! Just kidding, there aren't actually any cannons except in my imagination. Also, buttass-naked merma... / Continue →

    Note: Video is after the jump because the government implanted a chip (restaurant style tortilla) in my brain that makes me pee myself if I post videos on the front page. This is a printer made out of LEGO blocks, a felt-tip pen and some homebrew electronics. It's seriously i... / Continue →

    Yeah. It's pretty easy to get a first comment on all of the articles that are months old. Ever since they switched comment systems. Then again, one must think; What happened to all of the hilarious comments that were posted before the switch? They are lost, long lost. Oh, the humanity!
