finished semi scratch built proton pack

[adamszki427]

hello folks, its been a while but i finally finished off my pack, its a semi scratch build in that most of the motherboard and shell are made from kingspan foam, hardboard and plywood, along with some resin cast parts from benofkentprops and also the wand is the hasbro spengler wand.... electrics are courtesy of a rechargeable powerbank and a light kit which i can't remember where i got it from, and some deconstructed halogen bulbs for the reflectors, and the sound is taken from the speaker in the wand and fed through a real cheap ebay amplifier board in the pack and some speakers from an old pioneer portable bluetooth speaker. and its pretty loud and can go louder too..
its mainly worked from stefans plans and it was a big learning curve for me, and there are definite innacuracies, and some details that are a mix of GB1/2 and afterlife and also the alice frame and straps are repro not original.....
the one major thing is its heeeaaavvy!!

plenty more build photos can be found on my insta page Login • Instagram and also a video of the sound which i couldn't figure out how to upload here

Complete with labels. Clearly a lot of effort that's paid off. Excellent work and something to be proud of.

thanks its really appreciated - the labels came from a PDF file that i had custom printed on metallic vinyl and a happy accident when the glue i used sort of stripped a bit of the ink and weathered them a bit without me even trying.... i have some spares left too.

i had considered it but i don't have a flight suit and so i thought it would be a bit weird wearing it with just jeans and a t-shirt but you never know if i can find something to wear with it i might just rock it for the movie.

if i can find something to wear with it i might just rock it for the movie.

A khaki zip up jacket paired with similarly colored khaki pants and a black Ghostbusters logo t-shirt would work well.

Oh, and great job on the pack.
