My P1 Computer Gauntlet Prop

[Gardol2]

I wanted to make my computer gauntlet for my costume a bit more accurate from the P1 movie, as usual did a bit of research on how to make it more less costly to make the electronics simple to make.
used the larson scanner circuit on the blue lights (though it was a chaser light circuit on the movie), the rest are sequentially off LED flasher circuit. casing/cover made from sintra board/plastic card and did a weathering paint job

the circuit guts (audio was just a simulation)...

that looks great!  i like your yellow rotating lights and your blue chasers.

 

[Lowdmekon]

Me likey. Would you consider making these to sell?

 

[Gardol2]

will probably do

Question: why does everyone have that green board? What is it?

 

[HAL1138]

It's a self healing cutting board. It's used for cutting fabric with a rotary blade. The grid is usually in 1 inch increments for easy cutting of quilt squares. For decades it has made its way into the craft and hobby world and has become a must have tool when cutting with an X-Acto knife or any other utility blade.

I noticed that my computer gauntlet is a bit bulky since it is a bit angular, so I made another one but this time it is curved to make it look sleeker, also made another one for the "Wolf" gauntlet though haven't thought of the lights for it yet

They look awesome, really like the look of the one on the left though , love the bronze colouring on it.

Those look great!

 

[Shadowwalker]

A huntorial for this would be great and the lair would love you forever and ever and ever.....

 

[AlphaTech686]

This is beautiful work

 

[Gardol2]

A huntorial... I'll think about it since I am still doing experiments on what I am doing mostly on the circuitry

made a major changes on the predator character/digit, decided using a programmable IC (ATTiny) chip so that the LED minimized and light up in a pattern in which I re-arranged

awesome!!!!! love that gauntlet, i checked the other videos,too!!!
let's run lol!!

 

[Gardol2]

here I have installed for the window cover a clear plastic (200 micron thick laminate used for i.d.) and sprayed the inside with clear black tint.
also installed the switches for the other light circuits

here's a video clip; http://vid730.photobucket.com/albums/ww305/Gardol_2009/IMG_0320_zps5aa70104.mp4

Like a prop of a predator-movie. Stunning effect!

 

[Metal Man]

Great work, very clean look.

 

[Gardol2]

finally got all of the LEDs & circuits together...
