Gold band wrapped around the booster tube with hosing (not yet filled with slime). I’m hoping to be able to fill all the hosing on the pack with slime instead of getting empty green hosing- it just doesn’t look convincing that way.
Here’s the Video Game inspired HGA I made too.
You can’t show us that HGA without explaing what it is and where you got it. 
I ran green paint in my tubes and then drained it out onces I had the “filled” look.

I really love what I see so far. Cant wait to see the full thing!
It would be awesome if you could add some sort of pump so the slime occasionally bubbles instead of just remaining static.
Though this would be awesome, the result would be an air pocket being created on the top of the slime canister, would kinda ruin the illusion. The way to get around this would to have a small vent hole where the bubble could escape but you risk leaking slime out of your pack. Its a tough one
I’m curious what you used for the gold box that sits on top of the slime tank. I still need to make one of those.
I just used some extra foamcore I had laying around. MDF would work really good.
I’m not so keen on material lingo. What’s MDF?
MDF = Medium Density Fiberboard
Can’t wait to see how this looks on the Proton Gun. Any chance you have some tips for us on how to do this mod?
Where can I get one? And does anyone have a better suggestion for that gold block thing on top of the slime tank?
Eventually, yes. 
You can get MDF at Home Depot. It’s brown, comes in 4’x6’ sheets, and is next to the plywood. You won’t find it at Lowe’s.
Also, I found these reference pics:
That looks like a power supply to me. Maybe you could get a dead mini ATX power supply at a small computer shop for cheap and use that. Then you won’t have to drill all those holes.
Outstanding reference photos. Thank you. My friend works for Geek Squad so I’ll see what he can do for me.
Amazing job!!! Keep up the awesome work. Can’t wait to see what the final pack looks like!
Sir, that build is simply amazing!!!
That thing that looks like a power supply has a cool steampunk look!
Are you talking about my HGA? If so, I’m producing more them here:
The slime I’m using (nickelodeon) is really thick stuff. It isn’t runny at all. I also didn’t want to water it down because I want it to last awhile. I feared if I mixed water with it they may eventually separate- leaving the heavy density slime and lighter density water divided in portions of the tubing. So I used a large syringe to push the globby mess down the tubes and it worked wonderfully.
Complete with a couple bubbles and some textures. I’m very pleased.
love it
Okay, I ran into a problem and found a resolution. I wanted to share it with you guys.
There’s a problem I have working with the Nickelodeon Slimer (or whatever it’s called). It’s the bottom half. Look at it. There’s holes, and a big bulbus grip thing. It’s terrible.
If you think it looks bad from the side. Look at it from a frontal view. Yup, a part of it flattens out, there’s some more visible holes, and that grip is HUGE. First I thought “Meh, I’ll just face this end towards the proton gun and it will be less noticable…” Then I thought “Oh, I’ll cut the grip off and fill the gapping hole with bondo or something. Then I’ll do the same to fill out that flat part with the hole.” But then I thought if I do that I could sand it all I want and it will likely not be 100% flush, AND I’ll scratch up the plastic portions… Then I remembered. I have two of these things!
So I got the other Slimer and chopped the smooth part.
Ahhh… Things are coming together. The PDS (Plasm Distribution System) is a smooth cylinder shape all around. Like it’s father, the Slime Blower.
Now all I got to do is paint this half and add those rings to the top portion. Presto!
More as it unfolds…
dude im really digging your work!
