lets start from the beginning . . .
Back in October of 2009, Pat built the first mold and pulled 4 casts for the GBNH team.
Sadly due to our rushing we tried using a heat gun to dry the paint on one and warped the shell to hell, ruining it. The shell has sat in the prop room ever since.
For nearly 2 years I've joked about painting it pink and making it into a rookie pack for new team members, that joke evolved into making it into a Hello Kitty pack after discovering a little website called http://www.kittyhell.com
After the St. Patrick's Day Parade this year in Boston, Matt Burkit heard of the little joke and brought this pic to my attention: A little photoshop from our friend Throwing Chicken
Shocked that the joke has already been photo-shopped I realized I must make this joke a reality, so I dug the crap pack from the prop room and found some spare pack parts laying around and started with he cleaning and painting and well, after 3 hours here we are
I still need to pick up some baby blue paint for the crank knob.
I have some really "cool" ideas for this thing and I want everyone ideas in opinions on it. I think this can end up being a fun Community project.
the Goal is have to done For New York Comic Con October 13-16 2011 and wear it for a day there.
Ideas? Thoughts? COME ON!
