Top "frame' portion, body, and back of the TacPad. I have to add details to the smaller back piece with a wood burner so I don't cut too deep with the Xacto.
Once I file down the marked bits I'm going to seal the "screen" onto the acrylic. I purchased some sample sheets of light blue and turquoise colored vellum online. Perfect amount of transparency. I resized the reference image to fit the screen opening and tada!
The acrylic "screen" arrived thicker and larger than I had intended. I marked off the areas that have to be filed down in order to properly fit. I have three more pieces so if this ends up being sacrificed as a test run, so be it!
I used 3mm thick EVA craft foam for the body of the tacpad. I cut it individually since two need to be cut further to fir the acrylic "screen". It's also the perfect height to fit the battery pack of the fairy lights.

A glorious mess of creation! Overall I am pleased with how this is coming out.
