Here's another new pair of Ecto Goggles that sports a flat black paint scheme and heavy weathering to simulate wear-and-tear. Two green LEDs on either side of the frames light up and run off of a 2032 coin cell battery. The labels are custom designed in Photoshop and a few were found online, then printed on vinyl. The knobs on the body turn, however the knobs on the lenses do not (well if you have REALLY strong fingers I guess they can). The middle head strap was added just like on the movie version and all the straps are all adjustable.
Paints used:
- Krylon Fusion Satin Black
- Dupli-Color Vinyl & Fabric Dye Flat Black
- Krylon Metallic Brilliant Silver
- Tamiya Acrylic Chrome Silver
- Tamiya Acrylic Flat Black
First a basecoat of Vinyl Dye Flat Black for the frames and Satin Black for the lenses. The lenses were then airbrushed Flat Black and sealed with an Acrylic Sealer. The end of the right lense and the bottom knob were painted with Original Chrome. Chrome Silver was drybrushed on for weathering. Artist's chaulk was then brushed into the corners.
