Axle Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Congratulations on getting the Red Beard Runner, I think. The lights work well in the cabin, you should try putting them on the ligehts on the backk of the ship! I tried it, it's very nice. Quote

Axle Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 You know the lanterns? I'm guessing the Red Beard Runner might not have any, but look at the back of the Black Seas Barracuda and there are lanterns. Quote
Joey Lock Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 You know the lanterns? I'm guessing the Red Beard Runner might not have any, but look at the back of the Black Seas Barracuda and there are lanterns. I think he means how can he fit that bulb in the tube. Quote
Axle Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 (edited) I think he means how can he fit that bulb in the tube. I was thinking of those tubes that light travels through, I forget the names, but my Dad got me some a while ago when I asked for some, If I remember the name I'll post them. Attach it to the bulb and then attach the end of the wire to the lantern. It works.... EDIT: They are called Fibreoptics! Edited July 5, 2008 by Axle Quote
simonwillems Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Is it LED? It is an actual Lego part, used in this Technic set, among others. It is a principle based on little tubes transporting a red light. You will need one of these, eight of these, a 9 volt battery box+battery and a 9v cable. It is a nice system, I never MOC-ed with it but it may be suitable for the job intended. Quote
Norrington Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Very nice! Honestly though, the title of the thread reminded me of a youtube video where they waterproofed a LEGO ship and sent it out to sea. It floated, but they set it on fire. Ironically, the ship was a RBR. Quote
BillytheKid Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 It's nice to lighten up your ship, but didn't you use orginal lego parts? Like this one: Quote
Captain Cavinano Posted July 8, 2008 Author Posted July 8, 2008 It's nice to lighten up your ship, but didn't you use orginal lego parts? Like this one: Ok, I'll try to find it in Legoland. Quote
Norro Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 A great concept! Thanks so much for sharing! God Bless, Nathan Quote
Donut Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 This is certainly a very bright idea. It's nice to lighten up your ship, but didn't you use orginal lego parts? Like this one: I am not familiar with this piece, which set is it in? Quote
Errorist Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 If the lighting on my ship turns out this good then I will be one happy guy Great job Captain As for the legopiece, from which set does it originate and is it a rare piece? Quote
SlyOwl Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 It could have benefited from a fully darkened room and a slightly more shameful approach to bluetack , but I liked it so much that I couldn't resist - CGI background by Mister Phes. More... Honestly though, the title of the thread reminded me of a youtube video where they waterproofed a LEGO ship and sent it out to sea. It floated, but they set it on fire. Ironically, the ship was a RBR. You got a link to that? That would go great to the music from Chariots of Fire I would think... Quote
Captain Cavinano Posted July 11, 2008 Author Posted July 11, 2008 Which software did you use to edit photo and how can i get it free Quote
Axle Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 You got a link to that? That would go great to the music from Chariots of Fire I would think... No, Chariots on Fire! I'd be interested to see it too. I think he must have made the picture with Photoshop(?) Quote
