Leggs.obj Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) Update: Have most of the paint blocked out and dry fitting the LEDS and just WOW this came out so much better than I could have ever anticipated!

MeanGene Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Dude! Awesome. You nailed the glow look. Looks just like the movie version. Very nice work. What does the underneath look like? With all the electronics? How did you do all that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leggs.obj Posted October 8, 2022 Author Share Posted October 8, 2022 We used an off the shelf set of 20ft 2AAbattery fairy leds, with our limited (see also: none) experience in electronics we felt it safer to take this route. All of the lights are easily controled by a toggle switch, and has a fade/off feature. On the inner side of the mask I sculpted a small trenchway to accommodate the tiny leds, everything is still just dry fit so its a bit like a rats nest of cable. Hoping to have a few hours to get everything attached down for good tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeanGene Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 The best built system. Is one that is simple in design and execution. Don't knock the led lights you chose to use. Simple is always better. A quick off the shelf solution? Hell yeah. All day. The glow looks so nice. Can you post the led lights you used? Like where to get them from etc? Thanks!

MeanGene Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 An excellent work of art. Red LEDs really set it off. Now you need a head for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The suggestion for a head is definitely a tempting proposal, but i feel this helm is better suited for wall display. besides i have a few casts of a custom mask i still have to get around to finishing before i start a whole new sculpt 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leggs.obj Posted December 21, 2022 Author Share Posted December 21, 2022 Prey helmet #2. Hoping to rework some parts of the model in the new year. I'm also waiting on some lengths of something called LED noodles, hopefully i can comeup with a more elevated lighting array for these as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leggs.obj Posted February 20, 2023 Author Share Posted February 20, 2023 Dry fitting the SLA resin metal parts onto the updated Feral 3d model. Really happy with the results of this one. Still using off the shelf parts for the lights, waiting on some battery holders to come in before trying to play around with the LED noodles.

MeanGene Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Looking great. Amazon has laser diodes for cheap and in bulk. Take a look. Might be just as easy as LEDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
