Super late reply, but thank you! You can really make it shine with a little work.

Wow, this is stunning work. Beautiful job.

Hey folks! So I decided to take a break from my Proton Pack as it was rapidly burning me out. I had some spare EVA foam laying around from my pack that my sons had asked that I use to make something for them when I finished my pack. As kids do, they have asked pretty much every day when I was...

Thanks very much, I really appreciate it!

Thanks very much, I'm very happy with how it's turned out so far! :D

Ok, so big update: It's been awhile, but I got everything painted, lights installed and my barrel extending, all at the same time! Getting the lights installed was a challenge, and adding my launching mechanism inside the rats nest was even more fun, but it all works! The wand is pretty much...

Thank you very much!

A Friday Night Lights Update: Sorry, bad pun... Anyways, I got everything painted with the first coat of black tonight after sealing it all yesterday. While I wait on it to dry, I decided to redo the bulb in the wand tip to closer match references I found online. Specifically, how the wires...

Thank you, I appreciate it! I know my poor wife is ready for me to be done with it, lol.

I ended up scratch building some of the greeblies, such as the gold, hex stem base where the green hose runs from the control box to the tube below, and some of the hat lights/LED covers. For the green hose stems, I took a mechanical pencil and found it was more or less the exact size I was...

Hey everyone! Yes, I do have updates! Sorry it's been awhile, honestly, with Covid I kind of lost steam and put it away for a bit. That said, I'm back on the wagon and the finish line is in sight. It's taken awhile to get the details right, I underestimated just how much was crammed into the...

Wow, love this. The light FX are awesome, are these yours? I remember reading about the Soulinertia kit but never got one. I do have the disc sitting around, would be awesome to mod it with a kit like that. Would love a metal one, but as xl97 mentioned, I'm sure that won't be cheap. Will def...

Small update: I'm working on rebuilding the proton gun. I really didn't want to, but in retrospect I'm glad I did because so far v.2.0 is pretty superior. My progress with this build has been a bunch of accidental discoveries that have some how worked out in my favor, and this gun has been no...

Thanks, I appreciate it! I used a mix of blue prints from different sources after researching the pack for awhile. The main ones are Stefan's, which seem to be the most commonly used plans, but the plans by Sean Bishop were handy when visualizing some of the shapes and how to put it all...

This looks amazing. One of my all time favorite movie moments, when Alex looks up and you see the total alienation and fear he is feeling. Hit me HARD in the feels as a bullied kid. Beautiful work, you nailed it.
