BigGrin Hi all as my next build I have the Trinny and the X section. I'm planning on doing the X section first with a bit of custom job on the inside. My idea is to have her looking like the night before battle with the guns run in and tables in between the guns Cool . I won't be starting it for a while but I would like to put lighting in so what's the best lamps to get at 1.90 scale. Any help greatly appreciate Cool

Lighting kits for scale models...

You might also want to consider ditching the wires in favour of copper tape strands which are easier to hide

Hi Martyn, BigGrin

Linked below is just one site that may be of interest. I`ve never seen these flat l.e.d`s before, you may find them useful to get them hidden in tight areas.

Lots of other useful stuff and ideas available when you search the site.

l e d lighting

Good luck when you start the build.Cool
