This is stuff is pretty cool. I've seen it used on clothing and I've wondered about cutting it down for modelling use. However, would cutting down a standard 1m strip to 200mm leave you with an overpowered battery pack, for example? I know squat about this sort of stuff, which should be evident with the above question.

With the office blocks and hotel above you could light the roof parapets, etc.

Why don't you fill them the way they always do in films, first couple of floors as normal, then the third will be a drawing office with rolls of blueprints and drums and the fourth will be lots of sheets of polythene (using thick clingfilm) and glass panes stacked up. Perfect for shootouts with off duty cops missing their shoes.

Not a bad idea but most Japanese offices in the centre of towns are just normal offices

How are you going to reach the figures?

Erm, magic?

A Bibblyflap will be built into each level for ease of access.

Maybe he knows someone with small hands?

I would've said dainty

Will there be flushing toilets with real water and piped music to accompany the lighting?

So you've been there then?

Ah, now Marks comment makes sense. I haven't considered it yet but will certainly look into it now

Thanks again chaps

I've been ill all week but I managed to paint something this morning, a copper

An EM4 figure painted to look like a Japanese riot cop.

Main colours were done quickly but more time was spent on the details...

And with some support...

cheers

Really nice

Nice painting on the cop

The litter on his base is a nice touch too. Is it a piece of foil or something or is that glint from it paint? It looks very authentic.

Nice job on that blue/black.
Not an easy task, but you have nailed it.
