Hello everyone,
last week i bought the Republic STD from Revell. My first thought was: i´m going to light it.... but how?
so i came along this: Click here
(sorry, it´s on german)
would it work using this? or should i go with fiberoptics and LEDS?
Edit: i looked around and found this site on english:

The details are, more or less:Vince Hoffmann wrote:Looks like light sheet, only in ribbon form.
From looking at the picture, I'd say it would work fine. Now if I could only read the details...
- It needs an inverter (just like CCFL).
- The inverter can lit 2 of these bands.
- It is adhesive for one surface.
- It is designed to lit up computes and it is connected to the power source (I suppose 12 V) via a normal power PC connector (like the DVD and so on)
- It is 1.5 meters long, 1 centimeter broad and 1 milimeter high.
So I thing it is like a CCFL tube but in tape...
What about lighting your model with a normal CCFL ?? I think I wil do it so...
Hope that the translation helps (my German is not the very best one) ...
