Are you going to make some kind of LED lighting system? The reflector looks much better. And above it is some sort of optical fiber?

I tryed wit micro led but everything is to hot,so I put optical fiber (you guesed right) but this solution is not good eather. To les light. Oh! what the h... not everything must be perfect :bandhead2:

Micro LED may be too hot but have you tried a SMD? I used it in my F-16C lighting system (1/32) with good result. :)

I know it's been a long time since the last post on this thread, but I wanted to put my 2cents worth in. I'm a scratchbuilder myself, and can understand the frustrations that go with it. I suffer from severe depression most of the time and can sympathize with you when ailments slow things down and make life less than bearable.

I also know that we can be our own worst critics. Let me tell you that I find your work amazing and inspirational. I say this from the heart. Your work is superb! Please continue with the project.

Walt
