1:400 Titanic model from South Korea (builder name unknown)

This is my second model after making ED-209 in the Robocop movie. This model is released by Academy in south korea and its scale is 1/400.

I used etching parts fitted for 1/400 titanic of Academy from EDUARD.This etching part consists of railing, ladder and window frame. I sprayed hull red and flat black to upper and lower hull, deck tan on all decks and british gulf armor from model master to 4 funnels.

I focused how to light without any optical cable. I first tried to implement the optical lighting system into its hull. After that, I realized its room was so tight to keep all optical cables for full portholes about 1010. So, I choose ultra bright white LEDs used for tuning car.

First of all, I sprayed gloss white lacquer over inside surface of hull for getting more reflection effect of light. As my lighting plan, I located 7 LEDs in parallel inside hulll. I want funnel lights same as night scene in the Titanic movie.

And, I drilled through 3 floor decks under funnels to locate LEDs for getting indirect lighting. After thatso, I placed one LED inside one funnel through the this hole. I designed that this LED lighting system is driven by AC 12 voltages.

Rigging part was really difficult to me. Actually, rigging from 4 lines over ship to roof was really tough to me.
