lol, a pc part had to find its way on there.
Haha, there's an IDE cable there as well. I'm thinking of sticking an old modem/sound card on there as well. I knwo it's not much like the official packs, but I think it will do.
Anyone got any ideas how I can get the logo onto some brown overalls? I'll be buying the overalls tomorrow, but I doubt a T-Shirt printing place will do it at such short notice....? Can IO buy badges and sew them on from anywhere?

lol! Great quote!
Make a template/stencil and paint it with your favourite colour of spray paint.

LOL - god forbid it isn't an exact 1:1 replica.
Looks fine mate, you're trying to hard if you ask me, no one will really care how detailed it is anyway, after they've glanced at you and seen your a Ghostbuster that will be it. Unless you've got intensely boring mates who will study your intricate designs.
Well it's taken a giant leap again tonight.
Got some tea lights hooked up on the bottle bottoms which nahe been painted. All 'Non-Black' accessories have just been placed on the pack for now, I will glue them after the second coat of black spray paint tomorrow.
I've also ordered some overalls, couldn't get beige/brown/grey anywhere, so had to settle for black. Name badge and GB logo is being printed on them for me. I've fitted some straps to the pack as well, the are the sort of straps you have on laptop bags.
Got some High Voltage stickers at work for it, and the rest should be finished tomorrow. I think i've gone a bit OTT but I've enjoyed it. My heart broke today when one of the lads from worked walked in with a buy off the shelf outfit, with a blow up proton pack today. I've been keeping mine a bit secret, but I hope his doesn't look better than my beast!
Enjoy some more progress pics

That's pretty damn cool.
Cheers dude, I hope it will look even better once I have added all the minor details, etc.
I'm 23 and I still feel quite proud of it! Gonna get messy and trap me some hussies in it tomorrow night.
Maaaaaaan, I want that
I've just got some cheap blow up thing! It'll do though, as I'm broke at the minute, so meh!
Very well done though, it's cool.
That suite is £45 from a local fancy dress shop where I live. It's a rip off. My proton pack cost sod all apart from spray paint and the tea lights.
i'm tempted to make one now....But I doubt I have the parts.
Tell me about it though, it was a rip, funny though, we had four of us dress up so it was amusing
The strap is broken on mine, and I don't seem to have any glue in the house either which is annoying.Whats the circular object at the bottom by the way?
