Over on Etsy I’ve been trying to get a GB1 cable run going for some time, but my supplier is out of the wire colors I use. However, I may be able to get the colors for a TVG cable run, I’ve done a few runs in the past and they have sold decently, but I’m curious to see what the current interest level for them is. Here is a preview of the cable, I’m thinking I will add a weathering option in case someone would want the colors to be a bit less vibrant. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/2X/a/a1faf989ebe3bcdd9759bb871ae1a31c5384e04a.png) Compare with the in-game render. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/2X/4/430929061fabe2e3e6ea78a2b95aee708603445d.png) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/2X/d/dcea06e5f602ebafe84659703624b6dba671db51.jpeg) If there is enough interest, I’d be likely to do a full send on a run. (If there are any Facebook users here, I’d appreciate if you helped get the word out.) ---

Great to see some TVG love in the community! If I can get to about 4 or 5 interest spots, I’ll be pulling the trigger on the run. I’m estimating costs to be around 40$ per cable, shipping not included. > [@beric](#): > > I was able to source the wiring for a GB1 cable… Awesome! Looking forward to seeing the results in your thread! ---

In case it helps, here is the actual ingame asset ripped from the game files, and upscaled to 1024 pixels using a linear scale (so as not to blur the finer details). The original resolution of the texture is an abysmal 57x313. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/2X/4/4279132997fa9d901a53c961b6e9be2abba15c15.png) ---

> [@Byron Medina](#): > > TVG FOR LIFE! 100%! To me, the video game will always be the definitive third installment of the franchise. > [@Nomake Wan](#): > > In case it helps, here is the actual ingame asset ripped from the game files Thanks a ton for this! The in-game model is very difficult to make out. After messing around with the saturation of the texture, I updated the color pattern and made a new preview for the cables in photoshop. The color distribution seems to be a lot more even than I thought. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/2X/8/8e8e0a127d99980502d3e8dd15eadc381001bcb6.jpeg) Comparison with the texture. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/2X/4/492fdef14706c7fa835878d6dc6683cf5a1c76d5.jpeg) Thank you again Nomake! Looks like I have sufficient interest for a run! I will get in contact with my supplier. More updates to come! ---

Update for TVG lovers! Ordering wire stock today, once I have a good few cables made I will be putting them up in my Etsy store. Once the listing is live, I will post the link here. ---

Update! I encountered some supplier issues when I went to do the run, and I got caught up doing some GB1 cables, currently working to sort out the supplier issues and move forward with TVGs. ---
