You don't have any pictures of the engine that still pulls the old passenger cars back and forth from time to time, do you Harold? I see it come through the mountains every once in a while.

Sadly the gauges are just for show, people gave suggestions in IRC and I will look into it, but for now show will be fine. Speaking of show here is the reworked nozzle setup, back to six but a little more elaborate  Enjoy |

Inspired and inspiring in equal measure, old chap! Just as I'm putting illumination in the muzzle of my Thunderbuss, you're doing the same for your TVCS!  |

Bravo! Thank you Mr. Clough! I meant to get back to you about my query, those inlays are awesome, and I think they just might work! The other thing with the tube made my head hurt...lol. I understood it but it still confused me...lol |

Well here is how i did it: Take one tap led light, take it apart, move some bits around, realize the reflector part fits perfectly in the hole in the front of the vacuum back, drill a hole, glue a screw to the back of the light housing and walla: Ahh but where is the switch? Don't see it here... or here... nope not here... Nothing here....hmmm... AHA! there it is! =D Hope you enjoyed my little treasure hunt! More to come, now that this is out of the way! |

Professor, my I make a small suggesting in putting some sort of opaque material within the body of your weapon covering the vents, to both hide the internals and to diffuse the light a bit.
Cheers.

Baking parchment would do...
Maybe you could also fit some sort of mechanical complex inner-mechanism inside that is then illuminated by the LED's.
Looking mighty fine as-is though!

The need for that is because, in illuminating the innards, you show quite clearly that there's nothing there! The glow is fantastic, but it needs to appear to come from a 'who knows where' as the actual source of the light should be blocked, without getting rid of the glow.
