Great build going on here. Been looking in. Wiring looks a nightmare but you’re getting there. Brilliant night time view of lighting. Keep it coming. Andy.

Your not wrong there Andy, the wiring on this is a nightmare working out which lead runs where and connect to which output on one of the three pcb.

So the first of the underside skin is being fitted, this one was a real pain in the where the light is there was no room to allow for the wires between the two skins so I had the sand each one down slightly and be the time it fitted I wasn't going to take it all apart again for a photo, sorry. Had to play around with these section to loose some gaps. My Favourite Building:- 1919 https://forum.model-spac...=339517&#post339517 -

Shuttlebay Doors Before After Forward photon torpedo launcher Now I wasn't going to take this apart again just to paint the led inside, so I decided to just colour the front clear piece instead. My Favourite Building:- 1919 https://forum.model-spac...=339517&#post339517 -

The Arboretum Before This is the piece that was inside, I did try to remove the paint with Isopropyl but after just a couple of seconds the plastic stated to melt. So it went in the bin. So instead I used some clear resin like before and added the windows. Painted the inside clear blue, I'll redo the centre windows tomorrow to colour them in with the grey.

Great update and some great picture to show off its size and features. I was never a great fan of this ship, bit stuck in my ways and favour the original Enterprise, but it does look good with all that lighting. I’ll be watching, so more updates please. Mark

Hi Mustang, A really superb looking model there. I've built the Deep Space Nine fibre optic model before & it looked great in the dark with over 1000 little lights on it. I gave it to a friend so I would have posted some pictures. I can't wait to see yours finished. Stu.
