A finished diaorama

The lamp post has been installed, and by that the diorama is finished! Here are some pictures. Night pictures at the very end (as dark as it gets here in Sweden this time of the year).


















Making a lamp post, part 5

The lamp post is finished. Primed...



...and the painted a blue-grey color. As I remember, the posts had about this color. Maybe a little more towards green, but since I really do not know this will make do.

Making a lamp post, part 4

Today I assembled the lamp post. First is a picture where the reflector part is to be soldered to the horizontal part of the post. I had to fit the LED in the reflector and thread the wires before soldering the different tubes together. This since the 90 degree turns would not let me thread the wires afterwards.



And here is the final assembly.



Next is some touching up and then painting. And then, finally, the post can be installed on the diorama, and the diorama will be practically done!
