1/4000 マククロス要塞艦 1/4000 MACROSS SDF-1 with LEDs

Hasegawa 1/4000 SDF-1 要塞艦

modeller :どろぼうひげ さん (thief??)


Each comment is for the photo above the comment.








B  - 1608 chip LED






B using 0.25 mm optimcal fibre





Using Gaia colour light gray (usually you paint the parts black , then apply a thin layer of gray to give you that weathering looks)


The antennae are installed with optical fibres.






A - A 8 bit microcontroller PIC12F675  is used to drive the red and white LEDs . For chip LEDs and white LEDs , one must be careful about the driving current and voltage , protection resistances are needed. Author uses 1/4 W resistances.

Author also says Polyurethan coated wires are used (they are thin for limited spacing and heat resistant , so won't melt when heated)

C - 3 mm white LEDs x 2 .

D - power supply + and - connector.






The antennae are installed with optical fibres.












Left leg busy street 繁華街.








D -  Microcontroller PIC16F88 is used

B - The yellow LED is used  to give the inside a more sandy colour to match with the engine (foot) external part.






A - Right leg is a park. The movie has never shown what is in the right leg, residential area??

C- using a lot of optimcal fibre.







B - button batteries are used
C - The connector's pins are 5V (the microcontroller is operating at 3V, operating voltage range is 2 to 5.5V ), return pin and a pin for the synchroniztion signal from the microcontroller to control the flashing sequence of the LEDs on the runway of the ARM 01 (02) .
D - Those metal cylinders are actually magnets holding the plastic part (attached to the upper arm) to ARM's main ship body together.










A - Brass wires are used to detail-up the sensors
C - Another microcontroller PIC12F675  is used to control the illumination and alternating the lighting of 2 white LEDs and 1 red LED.




A - The canons are detailed-up.




LEDs (with flashing sequence controlled by the microcontroller) on the runway of both ARMs (center white line)










A - grooves in parts for the optical fibres.
C - Optimcal fibres are installed on all "antennae".





The yellow parts are all detailed-ups .




One spray the parts in black first , then apply a thinlayer of gray to give the weathering looks.









A - the main body encloses the 5V converter, microcontroller which controls the whole ship's LEDs flashing cycles (random timing).




Even the Destroid Monster (too oversized for 1/4000) has light ( chip orange  LEDs , fibre) , controlled by the microcontroller in the main ship body. Wires run through the legs , out from the bottom of the feet.




The base of the Aoshima W550 display case is used to hold the model and house the switch.



























マクロスΔ MACROSS DELTA CHARACTERS

































Bogue Con-Vaart??  Sounds like "fart" . How the hell they come up with this name!?

















マクロス級 戦艦?? Macross Class battleship?? I hope so, I can't stand the Battle 7 class design. Ernest Johnson is a captain of a macross class battleship, half breed of human and Zentradi , 2 meters tall.
