Just a quick update of this... been doing a bit of work and searching and finally came up with a cheap alternative to the expensive lighting kits out there..The LED kit arrived this morning and this is just a test i've uploaded so you can see the effect. There is still a lot to be done but video below will show the effect.... Into Darkness Bussard EffectSpence

I'm in the market for a cheaper way to light the Enterprise. I'll look in to doing my own lighting on other models when I have more time. Do you have any progress on your kit? Simon

Hi Simon, Due to other commitments I've not been able to do a great deal to this but over time I have been collecting a multitude of LED's and circuit board kits. Also the orbital drydock masks arrived yesterday and micro motors for the bussards... I will put a list and take photos soon Spencer

First update of this build as now I have everything I need... First off is getting a good light block on some of the sections I will be lighting.. I did one coat of grey primer and 2 coats of black, this will then be followed by one coat of white to help reflect the lighting. Parts of the Naccels have been cut out to allow a small amount of light through on the insides... More updates to follow soon! Warthog attached the following image(s):
