yeah i was half joking with ya....no harm in trying, right?
it really is a thing of beauty and a project well worth the time
Nothing wrong in trying at all, ha ha. Thanks for your kind comments as it really has been a lot of hard work, but as you say, it has been worth it.

Thanks very much.
I've loved this console since I was a kid - and that's just fantastic!
That green crystal is the finishing touch. Amazing.

Thank you very much, my favourit props were the crystals and have always wanted them since I was 5, 23 years later I have them and thought the console was the only propper way to display them.
Well...after having the parts gathering dust for the best part of 3 years and hydins superb crystals building in number in my cupboard I finally decided to dust of the parts and start what I planned over 3 years ago... the pics below are a rough dry fit of whats been done so far, mainly base construction and testing electronics (of which I'm not happy with light wise, might have to replace them once the sides and extra details are added, could be the lack of sides reflecting the lights, who knows!).
Trying to go for the Supes 2 look, when luthor is at Supes's Console...next step is to add ice features and the partially frosted sides...
What I am heading towards...around 34 secs in...

Hey, your progress is looking good so far. Yea, it took me 2 years before I fanally finished mine, I just needed to knuckle down and get it done. Trust me you will have a propper feeling of accomplishment when your finished. I originally wanted to do the same as you and go for the clear and frosted superman 2 console look but I couldnt figgure out how to hide all the workings thats inside my console. Good luck dude, really looking forward to see prodject take shape.

Lol, maybe I'll redesign the whole thing 'cos by now I havent time and enoguh money to buil the desk so I jus bought a prefab 1, so have to rethink about the position of the components and the kryptonian look, the pack included tons of foams, so maybe I can use them to make the ice spikes look is some areas. Stay tuned. And soon I'll realease those png icons that I've made so long time ago, did u remember them?
