Well, I finished my Seaview last weekend and dove right in on the Space Pod. I have to say, like everyone else, that these kits are a pure joy.They are both beautifully done and easy to build.The tooling is A-1.

I used led string xmas lights with 1000 hour life. they also burn cool, so no heat build up issues.

Nice work :thumbsup:

I love the flex cable on the mic in the space pod :) was it part of the kit or did you make it. I only got mine yesterday and I haven't checked out all the bits yet.

SWEET! More reference pics!

AJ- you just take a length of wire and wrap it around a sewing needle to get the curling wire look. i plan to do it again for the Chariot radios

They look awesome!!!

i think that ugly monster has the role nailed if they do a remake of the cyclops episode.

Very nice indeed! I'm about to tear into my Pod this week.

Very nice work! All you guys posting this stuff is keeping me motivated on my Seaview!

Hit the Seaview with some fine wet sandpaper then go over it with dullcoat.

what kind of christmas lights did you use & how did you route them through the sub ? Do they light up everything inside pretty good ?

WOW!! Great job on both!! Still waiting for Space Pod to hit the LHS. Looking forward to it!!

Got my Space Pod in and am hoping to do as good a job!! Great work!!

The lights are soft LED xmas string lights that I got on the internet. i blacked out the interior skin of the model first, to avoid light leakage. then, i used that adhesive aluminum foil to give it a reflective seal. works like a charm. for the sail, i merely drilled a hole in the hull where the sail inserts, and fed 2 LED's into the sail.

the flying sub is not actually lit. there was a reflection in one pic that gave it that illusion. Sorry for the deceptive photography!
