eddiesolo Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I have been working on this for the past few weeks. I wanted a 1/1 prop to house a Ceti-eel from the Star Trek movie The Wrath Of Khan, it will also go with my TWOK costume. It started out as a make up box, the guts stripped out of it and re lined. I scratch made parts, bought parts and raided the parts bin for anything that would work and look right. It has working LEDs/switches, sample tubes with samples made from Tamiya clear and two part epoxy, the Ceti-eel is 1/1 and came from America, all primed and weathered. It is 90% finished with just a couple of small bits to do but they are just a small probe thing, but the box is finished. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see the rest of the costume. Many thanks, glad you like it. Like I said a couple of small pieces to make and add but nothing major. Here is the costume, I have made it my own with patches and ID arm band, the phaser was a original movie one, stripped down and repainted with a trigger added, more robust. Also made the chest box, buckles and added the three ball pocket fasteners-these are on the original. First aid kit with scratch made hypo spray. Modified phaser.

eddiesolo Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 I am trying to figure out how to get some sound effects going in the thing, using a small MP3 player USB and a pillow speaker...we shall see if it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddiesolo Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 Finally finished the probe/scanner, this has a 'sniffer' for soil, gas and water samples and can be attached to the sample box to take reading, it then attaches to the data pad for upload of data Si:) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
