    Default equinox13's MHS4 - glacialis incendia

    equinox13's MHS4 - glacialis incendia

    where to begin... a parts list i guess...

    MHS exterior parts
    Obi econo board - the LED outputs have the resistors removed and jumpered
    larger vibe motor - Obi LED output resistored at 42 ohms
    Blue P4 wired for stunt w/optional sound as always - also matches the AV switch LED perfectly ^_^
    TCSS 'premium' speaker
    recharge port and single 18650 Li-Ion

    the paint on the non-black part is primer/baked, 2 coats hunter green/baked, and a very light coat of stainless steel so the green shows through/baked. the black parts were primered, dried naturally, then i put 4 light coats of ultra-flat black on, then baked them, then put on 2 more coats and baked that. then i rubbed my hands all over the black parts after eating to give them a bit of a 'worn' look. the screws were put in before painting.

    underneath the rubber O-rings is a set of reverse sound holes - hence why i'm keeping the O-rings on. both to hide the holes and muffle/filter the sound. in the pommel i have the premium speaker in a speaker mount and a second pommel insert and 2 layers of foam padding to muffle the higher pitches and give it that nice deep thrum. ^_^

    I really like the blue accent pieces on this piece Good choice and it seems to flow nicely from tip to tail.

    Another awesome saber. You will have to tell me how you made your re-charge port so I can do it myself next time.

    Very cool. Curious as to what the name refers to or means.

    it's latin. it roughly means frozen fire. i thought that rather fitting since the black parts look fire-touched and the flair is cold blue.
