Joker Interrogation Room XCES ceiling build

[jclinton]

Hi everyone. My buddy liked the roof on my diorama and asked me to make a ceiling for his XCES studios 1/6 collectors edition scene. I added a with ceiling and without pic for comparison. I took the 3 closeup pics in a pitch dark room. The only light is from the one installed. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Looking pretty good again!

Did you covert the light from a desk lamp or something?

Thanks! No, I used a strip of LEDs (9 LEDs) and drilled a small hole for the wires. I wired them to a switch and then a 12V 5 Watt transformer. The LEDs give a more florescent lighting to better match the movie.

I see - so that's a 12V transformer - I was just thinking the bare wire could be dangerous, silly me :lol.

I don't have any bare wire showing. Some of the plastic coated wire is painted grey. The only thing exposed is the connection terminal, but I will cover that up once it is in place.
