fallentomato Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 (edited) I got my first Lifelites kit this week and I couldn't think of a better subject than rock monsters to test it out with. This was a test for a MOC I'm planning for Brickworld. I think it turned out pretty well. You can see more pictures on my flickr. Edited March 15, 2009 by fallentomato Quote
kill will Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Neat, I thought of that before, I just didn't know how to do it. Quote
General Armendariz Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Wow, that looks great . The green pops out the most. Quote
Ricecracker Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Nicely done! How well do they work? Do you have to cut holes in the pieces? I'm thinking about adding lights to a fire truck of mine, but I'm not sure yet. Quote
Darth Legolas Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Oooh... ahh. Nice work! So you put a little light inside each of them... and got them to light up by...? Quote
Bricks Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Very nice You've made a great conversion of ''Lifelites'' with LEGO! So thanks for sharing your creepy monsters. 'Bricks' Quote
Medievalego Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 That's pretty cool. I'd like to see someone do the same with a dwarven mining scene ... make some huge crystals and light them up. Could be cool. Could even include some rock monsters. ~M~ Quote

I'm thinking about adding lights to a fire truck of mine, but I'm not sure yet. The lights are tucked into the technic halfpin. So you can connect them to pieces in a number of ways. You have to run the wires through your model and connect them to the control unit and that to a battery box. They've got a number of different lighting schemes. Wow, that looks great . The green pops out the most. Yeah, the kit comes with 8 lights, I put 2 each under the feet of the blue, dark green and red monsters and one each under the orange and neon green monsters and even then the neon green monster was still the brightest.

These won't work for me, but I'm still going to try and find something. Quote
Natman8000 Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 I was waiting for someone to do this. Great work looks beautiful. Quote
3.14 Toasts Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) Nice! Was this created without damaging/cutting/editing the rock monsters? If not, how much $ are these Lifelites? Edited March 16, 2009 by 3.14 Toasts Quote
Lordofdragonss Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Lights did a great job! They looks amazing! Quote
fallentomato Posted March 16, 2009 Author Posted March 16, 2009 Nice! Was this created without damaging/cutting/editing the rock monsters? If not, how much $ are these Lifelites? Correct, they lights just attach to their feet. You can see the whole range of lifelites at their website. I got the elite PF series kit which is $50 and includes 8 LEDs, the control brick and 2 power cords (one to connect to a power functions control unit and one to connect to a 9v battery box, for those of us who haven't quite made the transition yet .)

the lord of the brick Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 It's fantastic. They look like christmas lights . Quote

(it's not much of an acomplishment but i rarely post so it is a happy moment for me) Edited April 16, 2009 by calebexo01 Quote
teleri Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 they are so awesome! i want one! i wander if there is a way to make them without wiring them to the ground... so you could move them and stuff... and take them out to show friends... like in you pocket or in a bag or something... lol these are amazing though! i just wish they weren't so expensive lol speak soon Teleri XD Quote
Infomaniac Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 amazing it would be funny if you strung them up with string and hung them on a tree infomaniac Quote
