Well i decided i needed to have some goggles to make my GB attire complete for the Con this weekend, so I spent only a couple of hours last night making them. They are not accurate at all but I think they look pretty good for throwing some stuff together. the silver tipped lense is actually a flashlight housing used from a set of flashlights i got at harbor frieght awhile back. It was screwed into the lid of a vitamin bottle i had in one of my drawers. The frame is a pair of welding goggles i picked up from Ace Hardware. The solid black lense is another flashlight housing glued into a gutted pill bottle. the base for that lense is the cap for the pill bottle. I got the stickers from one of Vincenzos post here. Definately worth browsing for if you need the stickers. The battery cap underneath is a push button cap from one of the flashlights hot glued into place. The know on the side for On/Off/IR is a cap from a Dr. Pepper bottle. Like I said, not accurate but to me it looks pretty good. What do you guys think? Here are the pics.
Not too bad for a quick build, man - but why not paint the goggles plus base plate for the lenses a nice Olive Drab?
Also, I would’ve put the silver doo-dad on the longer lens, more like on the movie goggles. But that’s just me.
I plan on doing that tonight with the little silver pieces on the lenses. I found some that i can use from radioshack today. this is just the start. I would paint the the goggle frame the olive drab but it would more than likely not cure before i head to the con tomorrow. Unless i air brush the olive drab…which wouldnt be a bad idea now that i think about it. The tip for the black lenses i am going to change up a bit tonight to to make it look alittle closer like the movie set. I will post some pics tonight after i add the little bits of detail. I appreciate your feedback. Definately like your ideas.
I agree, painting before the con is not really an option, might still be sticky tomorrow. 
But you can always repaint later!
Have fun rocking the goggles at that con, fellow buster of ghosts! I can’t wait to wear mine fully geared up…
