It's extremely difficult (and often impossible) to integrate the bulky LEGO PF lights or older 9V lights with smaller models. Third party light systems (like Brickstuff) are expensive. So... dirt-cheap LEDs to the rescue! :) We'll see how they go with my X-wing fighter.
The Endor Project, however, stays pure LEGO, purely for the pure peace of pure minds of all the pure purists (including me ;) ).
Continuing the theme of things that I haven't done in years... this idea dates back to a shoot I did in 2016 that turned out really cool that I was looking at more recently and liked all of the things about it.
The original shoot, I used glowire tape and it was really touch-and-go the whole time because glowire is dim a.f. and now that there's several options for more powerful LED strips that work roughly like glowire, I figured I'd do some engineering. So I found myself telling some models "Oh, yeah, I'm going to do a thing and it'll look kinda like this..." and send them the 2016 photo and then explain that it's also completely different from the 2016 and hope they weren't too weirded out by everything.
Because things have been a bit rough, I'd been thinking about this for months and months and how I'd do it and what I'd do with it and stuff but hadn't been able to actually get motivated enough to do it. What I ended up doing was soldering up two different LED boards on Saturday for a shoot on Sunday.
Thankfully, this particular model was able to pick up on the concept so she'd be able to integrate the LEDs into her posing quite quickly.
Strobist details: There's a TT600 at minimum power to the left, a pinkish gel on a TT600 to the right, both of them triggered with an XProO. I soldered up a board with an Adafruit ESP32 v2 Feather to drive an Adafruit RGBW 4000k LED fake neon strip. And then it's running WLED and I controlled that part via my phone. I still ended up shooting at ISO 3200 and 1/13s shutter.
Whole load of LEDs designed for handheld wafting of broad lines. Nice and bright. Can cut through a 10 stop filter when it's fully charged, and moved slowly, but eats the battery juice.
I guess, the new LED technology is the reason for the "strobo" effect of the rear lights?

Powerful lightning with the Led Lenser X21R, you can only do this with the Led Lenser X21R. A bright torch they lightning in a distance of 600 meter and more.
Cheers! JanLeonardo
try to combine bright-field and light painting, need more practice with LED painting : )
strobist info : 1 white LED to paint the background's glowing halo and swishy line. The glass is on a white board for ripple effect.
