Hi,

I am impressed! I think you spend more time on the lighting than I needed for the whole model.

Regards,

Andi

Hi Andi! nice to see you

I learn a lot from your post, (include deviation, LOL), this ship has very little pictures for reference, I only have a read covered official book and several old pictures which is hard to see the rigging, and I found its layout, even the color of mast changed after time, I still don't know what I can do, I leave those annoying thing at the end.

Hi, that looks AMAZING!!!

Question: what type of LED have you used? Where to get them

Thank you mslsergey, I use 0402 and 0201 led for SMT. in China I can buy it on internet which seller already weld wire , for 0402 it's 1rmb/pcs and 0201 5rmb/pcs. if you weld wire yourself you need some skill, it's extremly small.

making superstructure.

left atenna, lifeboat, cranes. 3 months to go

Quote from kriszmesz71

The light might be too vivid for a model of this size but the construction is stellar, no doubt.

blame the fxxking iphone camera, or maybe I'm too old to play with it, I don't know how to adjust expose...

anyway I will make the voltage lower in dcdc convertor.

thanks.

update a light effect preview of this ship

I need to add some little figures, and make nice picture this weekend to end this project.
