Title: Lighting?
Post by: elysium64 on 06 June 2011, 05:06:35 PM

I  am planning to use lighting on a game board project for the first time, I hope to include flashing red Led's, regular Led's, light panels and flexible neon tubing, can any one here recommend suppliers and/or any good tutorials?
Thanks

Have you seen my Colonial Marines thread?  I'm putting lighting into the board, accessories and vehicles.

Terragenasis has some really useful LED lighting tutorials.

Here's some vehicle lighting, using a single LED and fibre optics:

In case it helps, I have a 'making the colony' page on my blog that is the lengthy LAF thread but edited down:
