psychotropic Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 well i was thinking since i made my helmet look functional why leave the rest of the armor out. so i set to work so far ive done the pack plate. it has a power pack, extra air (2 minutes), AvC (audio- visual comunications system), and CCP (climate controle panel). here are some pics full view panels and the power pack and oxygen canister close up audio visual comunication- i tried to use stuff that people could obviosly pic out as audio and video imputs for the avc panel to make it seem more believable. climate controle and power pack- the small grey canister is where the air is held and it is directly conected to the power pack so if the suit should loose power the spair air would automatically kick in. it is conected to the climate controle panel through that grey wire going across, conecting the two panels (all grey wires are used for climate control and detection [the copper thing in the middle of the circle is the climate sensor which is hooked up to the avc panel so it is transmited to the helmet and then the lenses so the trooper can keep an eye on the atmosphere at all times]). the yellow thing is the power pack which is conected to the avc/ccp with the two white wires (one white wire brings power to the avc system, and the other to the ccp system). in case you wanted to know the pack still fits fine. i mounted it in the hole so it would sit flush. here is the inside of my helmet (i have posted this pic before) any feedback or suggestions would be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray1134[501st] Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Cool idea for a showpiece. Just hope it doesn't get in your way while wearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK8776 jgarrettg Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 It will look very authentic when the clean up crew is picking up your pieces after the battle. Seriously, that's a very original idea. Cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amish Trooper Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 What might look cool is to get an old MOBO about the size of the middle back piece and attach that. It will fill in the whole area and not look too sparse and attatch a few LEDs that can run off asome well hidden batteries. But looking cool. Maybe I could try this little mod on my FX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psychotropic Posted September 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 ok i just spent a while working on the inside of my helmet, painting, sanding, glueing, and fitting. it was alot of fun and here it is. ilike how it came out and i took some pics real quick. the new tubes go from the earators to the speakers (near where the ears go). its saposed to look like an audio system (even thought it doesnt funtion (even though a real system would fit in here great). anyway yea... focused on the audio system line (the aerator to the tube to the blue/black casint then wire and ear) overall helmet and two closeeups on the chin detail sorry for so many pics but it was hard to chuse just one or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blinki Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Looks good I really like it. You did a good job, it was looking a little sparse in the beginning but you filled it out nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandeman[TK] Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 What did you use around the lenses? Looks snazzy. And your mod is pretty sweet too. Do you have problems putting your lid on with the "audio system" sticking out so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psychotropic Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 thanks for the kind words guys. the stuff atoung the eyes came with the new lenses i got for the felmet but one of them started to come off so i had to reglue it. but it really comfortable inside now. i feel like someone could really punch me now and it wouldnt hurt (not that i would want them to. haha) it is a little harder to get on now but i just put it on before i put on my bicept peices (for more menouverability to put my helmet on) and its fine. but its worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
