    DO IT!!! hahahah I want to see another light up beast! Just plop the basty and some LEDs into a blender and it should work out nicely XD.

    The only experience I had with electrical work was some soldering in high school & hobbies, which isn't necessarily required for a model like this. Give it a go! We're here if you need us :)

    Man I wish I had used that giant crystal

    Thanks guys, you know I just realized...they don't rank up well...no matter how I place them the with if there weapons/ arms wont let the bases touch. Since I will many play AOS I know this is not a big deal, but if I want to play the other type of games ill have to buy more normal temple guards in order to play...still having a lot of fun making them ;)

    Though I studied physics for some semester I don't know if those leds work with the other stuff you have.
    But that's a huge block of batteries... Where are you gonna hide it?

    Okay so I've been doing more work on my light up solar engine. And I realized after testing that with the big battery pack all the lights and the fiber optics will not fit inside of his body. So I'm going to make a base that can fit a nine volt battery and have to drill a hole through the legs I guess... I don't know I'm struggling here any tips on this would be much appreciated 20160122_182409.jpg

    Edit

    Ok took some time but I got thru the leg and blocked out the base

    The led bastiladon looks fantastic! And that flying skink is brilliant! Reminds me of a Led Zeppelin album cover! Haha!
