F-14 Tomcat 1:32 fiber optics

[Junkers88A1]

has anybody ever done some fiberoptics in a plastickit..me and my friend is doing a 1:32 tomcat and we have drilled holes in the instrumnetpanel ( acording to the original version ) painted the tips if the fiberoptics with correct colours and put light to it..its really a neat thing and gives a very good effect.. soory for the blurred pictures..will take some on tripod soon

as i need to take pictures without flash to show the effect of the fiberoptics..

How have you got them connected? Are they connected to LED's that run back into the fuselage and then connected to a switch?

hi

its not conneted yet.. i will put them all in a false "ground power unit " tupe..make that go thru a hatch in the tarmac.. and then connected to a sealed of LED underneath the tarmac !! that will be connected to a switch ..so they can be turned on and off !! i only need one lightsource as the tips of the fiberglass is painted with different colours ( see thru glass paint )
