But we are not done yet. Because the detail of these old models is nothing compared to the new Bandai once, I wanted to blow one up. So I printed Death Star Tiles and made a nice diorama.
To make the explosion I used plastic cup (diameter 2 cm and 3.5 cm high). Put a bright LED in it and painted the inside yellow. The I put cotton on the outside using hot glue to stick it on. Then painted it black and red. Giving a very nice result (first time I used this method, and now I want to blow up more stuff). I also up a pink LED in one of the engines of the Y-Wing
This is the final result of one of the Y-Wings (still need to do the other one)
The switch for turning on and off the lights in in the right bottom corner tile. in the round part (nicely hidden from view)
