I started to work on adding lights to arms and body.
There is one red LED on the forearms, cabling need to be hidden inside the joint. After some time I found a way to keep articulation on and to not destroy the wiring. The idea is to add a loop for the cabling that would extend within join without providing much wear to the cable.
After some surgical work – wires were placed and test went fine.
It was quite tricky to close down inner frame of the arm.
Yup – cables are in place – and joints are moving freely – lovely 🙂
Testing testing..
Next, shoulder red LED was added.
Another test… sweet!
Ok, now the other arm…. Wires… a lot of wires….
Then I moved toward central body and added RED led to add glow to another transparent part. It was straighforwards – no challanges here 😉
For chests vents (I hope those are vents…) I was planning to add orange LEDs hidden behind the photoetched parts. Some surgery was required to fit small LED in place.
The wires will be hidden under the armor, so I just put them on the innerframe. Completed torso with lights installed looks supercool!
