The Necrochasm: Pushing the Prop-Maker RP2040 to its limit!
This is a project that was years in the making, I went through many iterations that failed one way or the other. However, the final project was only started about a few months ago. It's great to see this project realized at last! The trigger really works, it has the appropriate sound effects, it has two firing speeds, and a "virtual ammo" system that you replenish by physically removing and reinserting the cartridge. So, where did it all begin?
The initial step of the process was to design the 3D printable case, which I did in blender. I found someone who extracted a model of the Necrochasm from the game itself and went to work sculpting out the finer details, hollowing out the interior, and adding LED areas. I also took this time to log into Destiny, and use my in-game Necrochasm to record the proper sound effects.
