Addicted to Addiction

[cryoblade]

I rarely post, but this is soemthing personal for me. I've spent a good portion of this year working on my first "product" as a maker. This is an amiibo shelf I've designed and made entirely myself!

https://lychansubscribe.etsy.com

I used mosou black for the black hole effect

Used acrylic rods to act as a light pump for the floaty bits orbiting the black hole

And a LOOOOT of LEDs

Please consider buying one as they become available! They'd make an amazing gift for anyone who likes smash brothers or amiibo in general

UPDATE 11/24/2023: Finally back in stock! Also, forgot to mention the blue parts are actually color shift as well.

Update 12/25/2023 spent all of Christmas resupplying the store. Ive been covering all My costs, but not by enough to have a surplus of materials. It also takes several hours to assemble each one. With all that in mind I will be raising the price on these going into next year. However the 5 I put together now will go for the current price. So if you've been thinking about it this is your last chance before the price increases a bit. I know a lot of people have favorited it so I wanted to make one last batch before I raised the price so no one feels like they missed out.

Hopefully I'll be able to have some new designs in the shop early next year as well!

Update 02/18/2024

Wow! It's been a minute, Ive been resdesigning the internal components to make everything easier and faster to assemble, unfortunately the current batch succeeded in the exact opposite of that! I've also replaced the little screw-on connector as seen in the video with a more polished looking barrel Plug receiver and found a new printer for my backgrounds to make them scratch resistant. I have 4 fully assembled and available for sale as of today and I have a few left to assemble in this batch.

Update 6/6/2024

Went to Romania to meet my extended family. But I am back and have more shelves in stock!

A tribute piece of crossover fanart for Knights of the Light Table's work on what's now two of my favorite music videos of all time: Starlight Brigade and Neon Odyssey. I was so moved and inspired by their latest animation, and the pure artistry and passion that went into it, that I had to draw something to celebrate both with a shared theme of space. Thought it be cool to team up Strive and Pyke in one image. They're my big favs and I really wanted to do them justice while pushing myself on the background to hopefully capture that wonder and awe of space. :) Starlight Brigade Neon Odyssey

It should be noted that a crossover between these two will actually be a reality if Neon Odyssey's Kickstarter hits $15 million, which will fund a Starlight Brigade extension adventure. No joke-- the Avantris crew just announced it in a livestream on Saturday.

So yeah, Heilos here unknowingly manifested it. Y'all know what to do next.

THIS IS REAL AND VERY TRUE LOOK:

YA'LL, IF YOU'VE EVER LOVED THIS MUSIC VIDEO AND THESE CHARACTERS WHILE WANTING MORE OF THEM IN SOME CAPACITY, THEN PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD AND/OR DONATE! They have to hit the 15 million goal by the final day minimum to get this mini campaign made with the Starlight Brigade cast included in the Neon Odyssey setting D&D books! It's not that far off either considering how much they've blown through previous stretch goals too!

"The physicists have known sin; and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose." — J. Robert Oppenheimer

​There’s a thin line between the divine and the dangerous. I spent the last few years trying to find it with this build—the Biblically Accurate Angel Core.

​It’s an interactive tribute to a heavy moment in history, modeled after the Manhattan Project experiments but with design elements from biblical depictions of angels, armillary spheres, and a globus cruciger. It might look like a simple desk accessory, but there’s a lot of engineering under the hood to keep that "criticality" under control.

​

I gave it Interlocking rings with glow-in-the-dark "watchful eyes." Depending on the orientation, different rings can be spun.

​It features a 3-watt blue LED and internal sound chip. As the lid closes, a simulated Geiger counter intensifies, building up to that signature "dangerously brilliant" flash.

​ It wouldn't be complete without a way to adjust the lid. You can unscrew the cross on top and give it a flick to reveal a hidden screwdriver.

I had to learn alot of new skills to bring this to life, from getting better at soldering, learning a bit of programming, and even making a custom PCB to handle the LEDs output...

I hope you all like it, and if you'd like to ​ponder one of your own, I have them for sale on my etsy:

What does the demon core have in common with biblically accurate angels?

Well, if you think about it, a demon is a fallen angel right?

After 2 long years of design I've made a hybrid between a globus crugier, the demon core, and a biblically accurate angel.

I call it the biblically accurate angel core.

From the crackling gieger counter sound effect to the incredibly bright glow of the core. This fidgitable desk toy has so many little details, right down to a screwdriver hidden inside the cross.

I just hope it was worth the wait, Thank you to everyone who supported me during development!

@bearsockz Merry Christmas! How did you get there!?

Loose rosaries filling your pockets? I can string 'em up safe, so you won't go losing them. Might seem a simple art, but it takes some talent to keep 'em properly secure.

I made a replica of the "Frayed Rosary String" from silk song! Sure it's not as valuable as a full string of beads, but I think it has better aestetics as an accessory

See?

The string is leather, the beads are a 3d printed to match the item menu details

And it uses a custom blend of mica powder and dye for the resin.

I'm selling them on our Etsy! I hope someone likes!

I added another variant to my Etsy store, these ones match the dangling beads you can find around the world, and doubles as a braclet among other accessories!

With the launch of the switch 2 I had an idea, I noticed alot of people really liked thr design of the Horii piranha Plant camera, but reviewers Were slagging it off for having a low resolution camera, so I designed a little kit to turn the higher resolution official switch 2 camera into a Piranha Plant too! Please let me know your thoughts

With the launch of the switch 2 a lot of people are torn between the third party piranha plant camera with low resolution, and the official

STORY TIME:

While making and upgrading my final destination shelf(I am now on version 3.5), someone contacted me and asked if I could make a full 360 version. I told him I could probably do so, but since all the wiring is hidden behind the background I couldn't make it light up, my 3d printing setup means the final size would be slightly smaller and.. Of course. It would cost more.

That guy said he still wanted me to work on it.

I was able to design and get him exactly what I promised in about 1 month. But personally I want satisfied, there's a certain level of impact I want my creations to have. So several more months of R&D (and the original commissioners blessing) later I present ... THIS

It floureces, glows in the dark, rotates in two directions around a stationary base.... I'm really proud of how much I was able to squeeze in here!

Also I got some help to make a fancier video.. I hope you all like it!
