I haven't seen such a good, clear explanation of wiring up the a light controller, ever, I think. Very cool.
Thank you
Excellent work! Thank you for showing the diagram on where all the wires go. I can solder (barely!) but that's it when it comes to electronics so having a simple diagram that shows where everything goes, what battery to use and where the switch goes is incredibly helpful so thank you!
That’s so good to hear thanks for letting me know. Sometimes i wonder if I am going to basic Lol. I know how it feels whn you’re just gettn started so am glad u found it helpful. Have a good one
@@InterstellarModeler The more basic, the better! Many of us don't know how to wire up circuits so showing where everything goes and the components needed and where the wires go is greatly appreciated!
Appreciate you showing the board all wired up. Didn't know you're an artist. Very well done pieces
You’re welcome, and thanks for the compliments 👍 Hoping to have part 3/completion up by Monday.
The weathering on the saucer section is really impressive.
Just a compliment for the algorithm 🤠
Hey, thanks Robert
Really appreciate this in depth look at beginning electronics. I continue to be intimidated by it but am getting closer to lighting a kit or two. So this step-by-step was VERY helpful! Thanks. Keep up the great work!
Happy to hear that. Sometimes i wonder if i go a but too far with the basics but I know how it feels with gettn started. Luckily with all of the prewired options out there it keeps soldering to a minimum. Appreciate the compliment
I really like the aztek-like paint scheme on the lower hull and those are beautiful paintings...the Enterprise is killer...thanks for sharing and stay safe!
Thank you very much Jean
Cool demo on the kit electronics. Awesome work on the paintings. You are a multi-talented man.
Bill
Thank you Bill
Nice tutorial on the lights Oggie!! One trick we use as model Railroaders since most of us work
in the tight spaces of an HO engine
is when you have more than one wire
that connects to the positive or
negative side is to solder the main
+ or - to a brass strip then solder all
other wires to the brass strip to
connect all!! I use K&S brass sheet
I get from Hobbytown or Hobby Lobby. When installing decoders,
LEDS and speakers to my
Locomotives it makes the connections easier to get to to
repair or add LEDS!!
Wow what a great tip. Thanks so much. Will pass that on in the next video
As always Oggie, thank you for sharing your projects 😊
Edit
Looks great so far and those paintings are really well done🙂
Thanks so much Tim.
Your paintings are outstanding. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Jim
A man of many talents! Thank you for sharing sir.
Thank you very much Richard
Very nice work Oggie! Thanks for using our board and can't wait to see the finale :)
Thanks Kenny
You’re a terrific modeller mate, a great ambassador for the hobby, I really enjoy your videos !
Thanks so much Dean. Very kind of u to say
Great video, and fantastic artwork!
Thanks Randall
Looking good Oggie! Good tutorial on the wiring. Thanks for sharing. Happy days and model on! 😎🇨🇦
Thanks 👍 Peter
Looking great coming along nicely
Thanks
Great video Oggie; the deep dive on the wiring was especially interesting and informative. I love your paintings; as a lifelong fan of Star Trek TOS, the Enterprise heading towards the galactic barrier is my favorite one yet. Best of luck with your art exhibit at Comic Con.
Thank you very much Tony
Another great video! Thank you for posting.
You’re welcome. I appreciate you watching and for the compliment
Nice update on your build, Oggie! It’ll be exciting to show your work at Comicon! I love your latest painting!
Thanks a lot Ken
Hi Oggie, fantastic build. Love the fact that you chose to make it your own by going with the Pegasus design. Thank you for the wiring techniques. My brother Tony and I have learned a lot from your videos and have applied them to our modest builds. Kudos on the paintings. Always enjoy seeing anything from original Trek. The Enterprise heading toward the barrier is iconic in TOS lore. Good luck with the art display at Comic Con. Best Wishes, Alfonso.
Many thanks Al. You guys do great work. I really appreciate the compliments.
I just bought one, working on it now 😊👍
It’s a great kit
Thanks for the wiring info for this kit greatly appreciate it, it's very rare builders will go through that for watchers and thanks for all your hard and time consuming work in posting your video's I for one learn a lot. I am still working on my 1:350 Refit and will be doing the Grissom next as of this date HLI is out of Grissom boards and also have a 1:537 Reliant pre-ordered from HLI as well...can't wait to get that one. will you be doing a video of the 1:537 Reliant anytime soon? btw your ship came out awesome...great job.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I really do appreciate it and also am glad the tutorial was helpful. No plans on the 1:537 but feel free to send pics of your completed model kit. Thanks again.
@@InterstellarModeler I make sure to do that when it's done. Have a great day.
Brill video as always. The wiring description will be so helpful for any modeler.
Can’t wait to see the final product.
Wonder if a 1/350 Reliant is on the horizon?
Thanks lain. No Reliant but will be doing the Galileo.
Another enjoyable instalment Oggie, thanks for posting. I have been using the wide foil tape for some years as light block in models; there is a brand here in the UK called 151 that is 2" wide and a large roll will cover many kits. Its simple to cover the inner hull and then poke through the windows from the outside and add the clear parts. I find it saves lots of airbrushing and is very effective.
Wow, what a great idea. Thanks Mark for the tip. Appreciate your kind compliment too.
Great video Oggie! Can't wait to see it finished. Just one point of clarification on the lighting board. Pin C will do either the impulse ramp or flicker. Which one will depend on whether you connect pin D to ground (flicker) or leave it alone (ramp).
Thanks Spencer. I did a quick mention of that with my diagrams but didnt have a switch available to demo it. No worries for me though, I really like the ramping up effect you guys came up with.
Looks really good so far (must watch part 1 for the building and painting!). The lighting looks like it will be really effective.
Picked up my Grissom over the weekend, they seem to have a taken a little while longer to make it over here to the UK.
Looking forward to starting it, but have a few aircraft projects to finish up first.
By the way, quite a while ago we talked about the bad decals in the AMT Romulan Bird of Prey. You recommended the JTGraphics decals set as replacements. Happy to report hey went down really well and my BoP is taking pride of place on the book shelves. So big thanks for that!
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching the video and for the kind words. Send pics of your completed Grissom. Would love to show it off on the HOTB slideshow.
@@InterstellarModeler Thanks. I can get some shots of the Bird of Prey over to you.
Great video. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Michael
Do you have a preference for boards? I’m wondering if HLI are a better way to go for smaller kits?
Yes….HLI boards a great for smaller kits. At this time they have 8 kinds but potentially can be used for a variety of applications beyond the model they’re designated for. For example this board can be used for an Excelsior as well as for basic effects for a battle damaged Constitution refit. Unfortunately there’s an out of stock issue. This is partly due to the shortages that are plaguing the electronics industry. You can check in with them for updates. Thanks Phil.
13 year old GlueAndPaper guy is raging with jealousy! THat TOS Enterprise is Exactly the stuff I wanted to paint during my oil painting class days. Never got that good for sure. You know, folks fill booths with stuff not even half that good and move 'em at $50 a piece at a Con.
Thanks so much Tim.
Lucky shot sir
thx
Yup soldering is a pain, she's coming along though.
Thanks…..glad to hear from you
Does it fit 6" action figures or just leggo ?
Probably just the 1mm figures 🤣
@@InterstellarModeler
It looks like the playschool matel fat x-wing for action figures the way the saucer section is so doughnut shaped .
