Some photos showing lighting tests for my Moebius Seaview build.
The section containing the three searchlights and the control room only just fits in. It's not glued in yet, I'll probably do that after I've rubbed down and primed the main body.
The tiny figures of Admiral Nelson and Captain Crane help give the model some scale.
I'm particularly pleased with the flat light pad which is glued onto the top of the control room. It does give a nice gentle bluish effect as if the room is lit by strip lights.
With this type of lighting it was well worth going to the trouble of detailing the interior.
The contrast of the bright searchlights and the subtle interior.
Love it Scoop, great effect with the lighting.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever made a Jupiter 2? I have been looking at the Moebius model, quite a big thing it is too and there is a very comprehensive lighting kit to go with it too...costs a few quid though.
I am tempted though!
It's a lovely kit eviled, and a good size, but as you say the lighting kit is a lot dearer than the 8 window version. It is worth it though to get the right effect.
ReplyDeleteI would like to get the Moebius Jupiter 2. I've got the smaller Polar Lights one so I may tackle that at some point.
Looks so cool Scoop! Great lighting! the interior shots are excellent. All you need now is a giant rubber squid and the theme tune and away we go!
ReplyDeleteDon't forget the sound of that sonar! ; )
