Been Brickinlike Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 Is this 10188 set the 1st to be lit up like this? Unfortunately I cannot upload any pictures because the files are too large! Frustrating!! I have uploaded a video onto Youtube, username Been Brickinlike Please give feedback as this is my 1st attempt at a MOC. Thank you. Quote
LucasLaughing Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 Wow, great job, those lights look fantastic! I especially like the turbolaser effects and the prison corridor. I'm curious, how did you get these parts to light up? As for the files being too large, eurobricks isn't meant for photo hosting, so you'll need to upload the photos to an external site (like flickr) and then link to them here. I embedded your video below, so that people don't need to search for it. Welcome to eurobricks! Quote
Been Brickinlike Posted April 6, 2018 Author Posted April 6, 2018 (edited) Hey there buddy! Thanks for that! As for drilling the 6x2's I placed the sticker set on 1 6x2 and placed it side by side with another then spent up to 30 mins copying the light shapes onto the other 6x2 then carefully drilling with a dremel handheld drill. Very tedious but it was worth it in the end! Hey Lucaslaughing After the tedious drilling the forms on the face of the 6x2's I carefully drilled the inside to make way for the LED's and wiring, 2 LED's were "daisy chained" together and if I needed another 6x2 lit up on top I just drilled a 1.5mm hole in the 2 top studs to feed more cable through!

Time well spent mate, if Lego did something like this when they reissued the set id have spent good money on it! Quote
brobert Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 I never liked this set, but the LED-work is stunning. (Now you just have to learn 2 things: how to post these to Eurobricks, and ALWAYS shoot video in landscape mode ) Quote
