Much closer! | Details | Hackaday.io

<p>I've resewn and connected the 5 LEDs, moving them over to the right significantly.</p><figure><img data-src="https://cdn.hackaday.io/images/6897781729549516890.jpeg" class="lazy"></figure><p>I had to move the wires around to make this work better, and they're a little worse for the wear, but are still solid enough to light up the LEDs.</p><p>Much better placement...</p><figure><img data-src="https://cdn.hackaday.io/images/7188301729549595671.jpeg" class="lazy"></figure><p>This is without any diffusion, and the felt just sitting on top, but you get the idea.</p><p>And adding the diffusion fluff and sewing it together...</p><figure><img data-src="https://cdn.hackaday.io/images/2742041729549653920.jpeg" class="lazy"></figure><p>Kind of hard to see the glow on this sunny afternoon, but it's much closer to what I was thinking.</p><p>Now I just need to reformat the design a little bit. I need to take out some details - they're too small to render in felt. And my intent was to have the "spikes" on the front piece and the back piece offset each other to give it a little layering dimension - but that's going to take a bit more precision in my cutting than I applied to this version. And I just used a sharpie to make eyes, but I'll probably embroider them for the final piece.</p>
