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. ^_^
