Glowing Firefly

thingiverse

Basic front panel with some bright LEDs hooked up behind it. This was the first idea before the Buffy one, both look very cool IRL. Used a range of techniques to get the welded metal look. Used both brown "forged hammered" metal and finished lightly with very shiny "brilliant" gold while it was wet. Then did 3 cut passes the first 2x passes about 20cm away from the material to get that really burnt cut/welded look. Then constructed trivial box behind it and hooked up super bright LEDs. Ideally would have used 3x yellow, 1x white, 1x red, but was in a hurry and they're all yellow.
