DC Classics Mr.Freeze w/ LEDs and Chill Blast
 

Hey guys and gals!

Here is my DC Classics Mr. Freeze!

Gave him some clear hoses lit up with white LEDs to simulate Mr. Freeze's life sustaining frozen gases in his suit. Also gave him some white LEDs to light up his face in the helmet. I think it gives a nice creepy vibe to Freeze.

I added an electronic "Chill Blast" effect to his backpack, which has a frozen chill blast sound, lights up the feeder hose to the gun, and lights up the gun barrel tip! Check the video!

Each of the features has it"s own dedicated control, and the batteries are easily replaceable!

Painted in durable acrylics, enamels, and lacquers, and sealed for protection. Look for him on Ebay starting tonight!

What would you say the battery life is on that sound effect? I only ask because it is awesome.

I've been triggering it all week with no issues. But it is irrelevant as the batteries can easily be changed! I would have to estimate a conservative 400-500 operations before battery replacement is needed.

Thanks for looking dude!:cool:

Amazing work as always dude!

this turned out amazing! I'm floored by your skill!

Flipping siiiiiick bro!!!

Love it. Always the best work. Mr freeze is my favorite batman villain, so i'm automatically into anything regards to him :)


Did you get anti monitor yet?

oh hell yeah. rad!

Looks pretty damn good, BH.

Are the LEDs on a gain? In the video it looks like you can adjust them brighter/darker.

Super cool. :thumbs

No, they aren't adjustable. What you are seeing is a product of the milliamp capacity of the chip. The chip was originally a sound only effect. I modified it by adding three LEDs to the proper pinout traces on the chip. However, since the batteries only output a fixed amount of amperage what you are seeing is the "hotrodded" chip taxing the mAh (milliamps per hour) battery capacity. Also since the same battery pack powers the forearm hoses, when you trigger the gun the sudden draw of power from the chip diminishes the available mAh for the arm hoses.

But a cool side effect of the way I rigged it is that if you jiggle the gun hose at the base of the backpack you can get all three hoses and the gun tip LED to stay lit up. That's how I got all the light going on in the pics. It does not effect the chip or electroniucs in any negative way.

The LEDs in the helmet are on a dedicated battery stored inside the chest. Easily replaceable as well, simply pop the head off!

Well, that was a little long winded but I hope it explains it a bit, and maybe gives some inight to how I approach doing things.:thumbs

SO badass!


Hmmmm...you should makke some Green Lanterns with light up rings- that would be badass.
