Scoutfly Lantern - Monster Hunter

thingiverse

I remixed an existing Scoutfly Lantern design from SilverBlackProps, adding threaded sections and an insert for NeoPixel wiring, an Adafruit Gemma microcontroller, and a LiPo rechargeable battery! The final prop was finished by filling print lines with Bondo and primer filler, then painting with Rust-Oleum Hammered Metallic gold spray paint and two coats of glossy spray topcoat. I used leatherette to make a leather band and pouch to finish off the prop. There's an STL file with a form that can be used to make a pattern for the pouch. I can provide the code for the firefly LED patterns upon request.
