ghostbusters 2 proton pack

[kryptoboy1]

hey everyone

for the past couple of weeks i have been gathering all the parts to build a proton pack. i am going for a pack from ghostbusters 2. another member on here gave me the pack shell, and i have been busy modifying the hell out of it to suit my taste and make it more accurate. it's still a work in progress, every time i look at it i either hack a piece off to redo it or sand something down. if anyone has any suggestions on any modifications i can make to the shell feel free to share. i am thinking of painting it and giving it the hammered look, but i am still debating on that or making it smooth. does anyone have any suggestions on that?
i have to give thanks to streamcrosser for giving me the pack shell ..thorssoli i got alot of parts for my pack and to surrealstudios for some help moding the pack
also to therealtonystark who will hopfully be helping with the electronics and sounds..

here are some pics of my progress so far

the proton wand is completed and i will get more pictures up of it soon and all the parts are just placed on the pack for now nothing is attached...

Looks great
I dont have any pointers on this but I do have a question. Do you plan on putting in a light display? In the gun and on the pack that is.

 

[kryptoboy1]

i have a lighting kit already in the wand.. and i have a lighting kit for the pack.. but i am hoping that once i have the pack how i like it prop member therealtonystark said he would help me with the electronics and sounds.

 

[Zebart08]

Awesome. I cant wait to see it finished. It looks like it is coming along great.
