    My borderlands psycho speed build (lots of pics)

    Hey. Posting from my phone. Hope this works ok. Got the mask all rewired and it works much better. Can't figure out how to modify my post on my phone. Someone can combine them if they want These are the parts used. 2 bright white LEDs, a potentiometer, battery holder, and switch In case any of...

    My borderlands psycho speed build (lots of pics)

    Got the wiring figured out. tomorrow I am going to buy the parts from radio shack. Wiring it up with 2 bright white leds, a potentiometer, a switch I can access easily (maybe with my tongue lol) and a 9v battery. the This will be way better than my current solution. It will let me turn the...

    Yeah, I still have my spartan helmet in my old room at my parents place. Everytime i see it, it upsets me that I didnt take more time and make it look right.

    I decided to not do another project yet, and fix what I have. Turns out I have some wiring issue.I think one of the wires has corrosion on it, and it never keeps the led bright for long. The other one works great though. Im going to use this opportunity to redo the wiring, and add a soft switch...

    I know, the detail and quality is great. Still, you gotta find someone thin and lanky to play him

    My borderlands psycho speed build (lots of pics)

    I have a motorcycle, and a helmet that I might want to upgrade, but Im not sure what you mean by conversion. Ive never seen that done. So far thinking about doing the buzzaxe to compliment the psycho, or another mask, since they are small and whatnot. Ive never been big into half-life, but maybe...

    Yeah, unfortunately, doing this mask got me itching to do another build, but its highly impractical at my stage in life (poor college student in a small apartment) Can anyone think of something that won't take as much time or room or $$ as a full spartan build?

    Borderlands Mask help

    Dollar store. Not really any brand.. Lol They worked well since they come with wiring, the reflector, the led, the switch, and the batteries, and are the right shape and size, the problems are that they eat batteries ( I bought 4 more book lights just to loot batteries from, 12 watch batteries...

    Borderlands Mask help

    Those are some nice masks. The lights on mine only block out a bit (it's like holding your finger an inch in front of your eye.) you lose the center of your vision, but besides that it is like looking out of sunglasses. If done correctly there is no light bleed into the mask, messing up your...

    My borderlands psycho speed build (lots of pics)

    yeah, good idea. I might check just to have them around. But for halloween I think this will be what I wear. Only thing I would do if I did it again would be to wire the lights myself and not use the book lamps. They work great, but need batteries replaced after not too long, and I have to turn...

    My borderlands psycho speed build (lots of pics)

    If I get enough time in the coming days I am going to build a buzzaxe. anyone have any ideas on how to put one together fast? I was thinking about doing something similar to the quick build I did for a halo plasma pistol. just layered cardboard, but it turned out well. Sealed up the corrugations...

    Thanks for the kind words. :) EDIT: here is a pic of the rest of my costume. Couldn't find orange pants to save my life, and it is cold here so I wanted a jacket. Also, I've since painted the knee pad.
