Superman crystal console

So very very cool! It would be so cool if you could have rondom Marlon Brando quotes as you remove and place crystals. Very very cool!
 
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.
 
Very cool my friend, gonna have to dust off my parts and finally start some construction after seeing that...
 
So finally my console is now complete. The green crystal is now in place (a massive thanks to Hydin for his part in this project!!!!), I'm resisting the temptations to go throw it in a loch to see if it will build my very own fortress!!!:love

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.
 
That sounds sweet, be sure to let us see it when it's done. All the best with your prodject!!!

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.

That should look impressive. You sould open it as your own thread so people aresure to know its your build and not mistake it for mine.
 
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?
 
Took a little while, but finally completed my USB Hub Console. Been checking these pages for a while. So thanks for the inspiration. Peace
