That's not the way she looked when I was a teenager.

After the Flash is cleared away and paint applied ... she'll look better ....
 
The "Voyager" Fantastic Voyage Ship

Nice. I like seeing some off the beaten path stuff. :coolio
 
The "Voyager" Fantastic Voyage Ship

Thanks fellars ... for the warm welcome ... great to be back at the Bench ... I've not had much time lately

Since this is a build for Cancer support I thought that this subject would go with it very well ... I'm waiting for Probeus next ...

Both wings are glued up ... I would add the Mobius photo here but with the current Copy right stuff better not. Anyway the interior is to be light Blue with dark blue seats ... but the photo shows opposite ... dilemma's starting already ... Guess a You tube Video must be watched ... Cheerio '

Looking good so far. I'm sure that a couple good viewings of this in the show will clear things up.

thanks fellars ... I've been looking online lots of stuff with the Probeus but this was from a cartoon on Saturday morning ... But still was a miniaturized Ship ... on a cellular level ... just not a lot of info on it ...
 
The "Voyager" Fantastic Voyage Ship

Thanks Steve ... Quite simple ... Until AMS rears it's ugly head ... I saw where a guy lit one up with less ... And used magnets to conceal battery box ... :geek :hmmm :yipee
 
The "Voyager" Fantastic Voyage Ship

Sweet.

I have to start buying the SMD LEDs prewired like that. I'm the idiot who insists on soldering them. Out of a typical 4, 1 gets soldered, 1 burns up, 1 gets tweezerpulted and the other inhaled. :D

I know ... I've found one place that has great ones those little ones with the big shiny wires break very easy ... the red and black wired ones are very good ... I use a 3 cell battery pack out of a $1 dollar tree flashlight for a tester keeps you honest when wiring them ... if you get the red & black leads SMD's the red is always the anode ... if I wire a LED I always get it wrong really can't make a mistake this way ...

The "Voyager" Fantastic Voyage Ship " Update "

Ok I think I have the L.E.D's sorted out installing engine lighting today ...
