Traitor Baneblade

Here's some WIP shots of the lighting project:




Showing the two switches under the rear hatch. I've since magnetised this hatch for easy removal and placement. One switch will do the headlights and lascannon lights, the other will do the searchlight, so they have a common live lead. They need different resistors though.




This shows the solution for the side sponson LEDs. I replaced the spindle with a hollow aluminium tube with a notch cut into it to allow the wires to pass through. This means the side sponsons are still fully functional and can be adjusted once painted.

Hoping to have the lighting part of this project finished by the end of the week, time permitting.
