JD
Me too. Any plans for lighting?

John Hughes
I've got four of the old ISD kits with fibreoptic lighting in my stash. I was thinking of doing one of them as Booster's ship.

JD
That will be cool, I'm looking forward to it🙂

jan zumack
Hi Guys, @ JD i will use some fibreoptics and this Kit have a lighting unit. I also do some Upgrades for the Body. I found many stuff at the net. 😅

Torsten
WOW 👀 👀

JD
Looking good! What size of fiber optics are you using here?

jan zumack
@ JD 0.5mm

JD
Thanks! I'm interested to see how you trim the ends of the fibers. I'm still unsure how to do that..

jan zumack
Me too, it is very small and tight. I think, i use a Nail Cutter.😅

JD
Woah, that's some heavy modifications there, I see what you mean by "Errant Venture"

jan zumack
Its an portable spaceport, i find some Pictures with many Docking stations, i Hope the endproduct Looks cool...

Torsten
Still watching with great interest, great idea with the docking station 😎

Roman Modelar
hmm, very interesting 😉

JD
Looking good, are you cutting the fibers with a sharp blade or nail clippers? I'd like to see a pic of how you do it. 😁

jan zumack
I make a pic for you. 😅

JD
Thanks, but I don't see the cutting process. Blade or clippers?

jan zumack
I Cut after painting

John
Very nice!
The Empire always had the coolest equipment...

Rui S
Impressive lighting 👍

JD
Woah… red?

jan zumack
@ JD starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Errant_Venture

JD
Ok thanks! I was unaware of this..🤓

JD
Hey thanks for showing how you're cutting the fibers. The cutter looks huge by comparison! Are you able to cut close enough? Maybe a sharp blade is not ideal, or would take forever to cut them all.. very interesting 🙂

jan zumack
For some Fibers i use a Skalpell, but the Most with my tuned Cutter. I Dremel the cutters top, so he ist smaller. And yeah i Cut Close enough. 👍😉

jan zumack
Mainship done 😁

Villiers de Vos
Very nice weathering.

Torsten
Great turn out, the painting is very nice 😎

Ralf Topeters
The Errant Venture in scale, what a great idea. I love it because it is so well done. Only thing left is a green X-Wing in scale entering the hangar bay. 😉

Robin (WhiteGlint)
A red Star Destroyer, very cool!

Simon Nagorsnik

Łukasz Gliński - Very bad set. All crooked, nothing fits together evenly. When I imagine how much putty is needed...

Dave Flitton
This a great inspiration for my build!

Robin (WhiteGlint)
Good luck with that Salamander, Oleg! Seems to be quite the pain. The Buccaneer looks great. 👍

Олег О
I think I'll put Salamander on pause. It's really bad.

Łukasz Gliński
Sad to read, thx for the feedback 👍
