engine glow and source lighting, let's see what you got

By thebigeb2589, in X-Wing

I am by no means a pro painter faaaaaar from it but I do really enjoy painting my minis almost as much as I like playing. My favorite technique is source lighting which for the life of me I can not make realistic. But I love to try. My phone won't let me upload more than one pic per post so I'm going to have to spam my own post to get it going but I'd love to see what everyone else out there is capable of doing when it comes to this cool technique

A lot of cutting, re-gluing, and soldering. I sell them on ebay and take request. I charge 40 for lights, 20 for repaint, 20 for the ship. Emon is currently siting on ebay. Kath similar to the one here will be up next. Currently working on falcons.
