  2. Nice! some Luca love! Such a pretty colored Valk! Superb photos as always Saburo! I love that cabinet design! You can view your display from both front and back!
  3. Thanks Derex! It will look a lot better after I completely rework the lighting system! Im aiming for double the brightness with better coverage and control too.

  7. a 1:60 certainly wouldn't fit in a Klingsbo unless in the crouching position or if you removed the shelf above.. but you might get lucky in the Detolfs!

  10. wow awesome photos Saburo! Even though these are the HMR line its still makes me wish I could have got my hands on a 1:60 Regult.. oh what could have been..
  11. Spitfire in your garage! as you would of course.. lucky SOB! The top few of my all time favorite aircraft does move about a little but the Spitfire always seems to remain at the very top of that list!
  12. liking this! Bandai please make the VF-24! I will give you lots of hugs and kisses if you do!
  13. dang it that is looking amazing!!!
  14. the special effects look good but the movie does not..
  15. They are cheap and a bit nasty and require some maintenance as some leds drop out from time to time. But when they are all working as they should they work quite well! I had to replace a few flickering leds and a few that died which was a tricky thing to do as the soldering points are tiny! I couldn't use the mains powered soldering iron and had to use my gas powered one being smaller and lighter with a finer tip. I also robbed borrowed the lux meter from work and tested the light output of each coil of leds so the 3 main displays brightness is as equal as possible as originally you could notice the difference especially on low to mid brightness settings. Max brightness was less noticeable. Only painful thing was pulling them all down and applying fresh double sided tape and sticking them all back up. Job now done but im still considering replacing them all with better quality brighter led strips. Or maybe doubling the led count on each strip. Thanks mate! The top and bottom levels lighting is a problem. I didn't make the strips long enough as I made an error when I originally cut them all up. There is a horizontal strip that runs along the top bar to add brightness but I couldn't do the same for the bottom shelf as I didn't want led strip and wiring visible cos it looked ugly. Thanks! Im glad you got it sorted and can now enjoy it in one piece! Might just have to treat her with gentle hands! Thanks!
  16. did a bit of work on the main displays to get the lighting as balanced as possible. the individual displays don't matter so much. cheap crappy LED lights..
  17. hope they don't space it out too much.. I really want this one!

    That's good that the Regult has a somewhat decent interior.
