Starship Modeler Discussion Forums

i am in the uk and cant buy my fiber optics from fiberopticproducts.com as i do not own a credit card, however oi am looking for 1mm unsheathed fiber optic cable to light my BSG pegasus model,

does anyone know where i can order it from in the UK?

I am kinda new to lighting my models, and i had a thought, is it possible to tie multiple leds to one resistor, say 5 or 6 leds to a single one?

I have used many different types of paints, such as enamels and acrylics but what is the deal with tamiya acrylics?

they are acrylic paint, but i thought acrylic was water based, but the tamiya ones are clearly not water based, they have alcohol in them, so how can they be acrylic?
