Title: Sailor Moon set of 1590G projects
Post by: Drew Hallenbeck on August 10, 2019, 06:39:37 AM
Inspired by my daughter's love of Sailor Moon, we've just finished a set of all ten 1590G projects including the discontinued Sawse. We built them in 1590B enclosures though. Definitely easier to work with and still a good fit for the control layouts.
I had the idea right after Brian released the "G" projects but we just finally got around to finishing them.
We're going to be debuting them at a local gamer/anime/comic con her in Jackson, MI on August 24th. We'll have a table set up in the Vendor's hall with some other game/anime inspired builds.
Just need to finish making up some cables and getting everything wired up!

Nice!  Good luck with the convention.  Hopefully you sell more than you buy.  ;D

Very nice matching set!

The TV antenna of my childhood home didn't receive any channels that aired Sailor Moon, so I don't know anything about these sailor ladies, or the show, but I'm very glad to see that Sailor Pluto was included just like one of the others.

Was there a Sailor Oort Cloud? (Hands up if you know what one of those is, thanks to Anne McCaffrey.)

Very nicely executed pedals :)

Out of curiosity,  is the sawse using one of the new re-issue vactrols?

Yeah, I ordered a few from Small Bear. Seems to work okay but the effect isn't quite as pronounced as I had expected. I'll probably socket the next one a lot and try messing around with some other component values too.

Awesome! I did a manga-themed build with my daughter a while back, so I know how much fun these can be.  :)

These look great!

I'm currently building an Aion "Luna" and definitely considered using the cat for the artwork.
