That's a bit big, isn't it? Yosef, all the pictures I have are either in here or the photobucket account (it’s linked in one of the posts).
8 levels, 30×48 squares per level? That’s a bit big, isn’t it?

I have more to share do you have any pictures of what you made so far?

Check out PC mods pages for cool lighting effects. www.modgods.com/ gave me alot of good ideas. Plus, it being halloween and all, you can get your hands on a ton of small orange and purple lights for cheap. I want to light up my hulk with the orange lights to give it an evil look. The thing to be aware of is those lights generate heat, so I got some PVC tubing from my DIY store that I can cut and slide over the light bulbs to take the heat and keep my foam hulk components from melting. Have fun! Got some good pointers from some guys over at Heresy Online. Check out PC mods pages for cool lighting effects. http://www.modgods.com/ gave me alot of good ideas.

When I get some time to have a proper sit down and read, I'll dive into those. Insolitus, thank you!

Here's a circuit you might be interested in for the electricity arc stuff: http://www.cgs.synth.net/other/arcwelder/arcweld.html I have not built it my self, but I have built some of his synth modules and they are working perfectly. In addition I believe that this kind of schmitt trigger oscillators and or-ing and and-ing with diodes is the easiest way to get the whatever blinking results you wish. For the more soft dimming up and down it might work with a sinus oscillator controlling a pwm-circuit. As sine oscillator you can for example use this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-shift_oscillator and for the pwm-circuit you can use a 555 http://www.national.com/ds/LM/LM555JAN.pdf , scroll down in the datasheet until you find Pulse Position Modulator on page 10 and take a look at that. Hope this can give you some good ideas! Hi again,

Am doing my own Space Hulk project, having been inspired by yours! Would love to add LEDs to it! Just want to add that I keep this site favourited! A wonderful site, with great Space Hulk terrain! Hi,

If you find any good tutorials, I’d love to know! Am doing my own Space Hulk project, having been inspired by yours! Would love to add LEDs to it!

Just want to add that I keep this site favourited! A wonderful site, with great Space Hulk terrain!

Insolitus, basically what I can get is limited to people sell on the internet. (No proper local electronics store, so I need to go online for my purchases anyway...) Bucho, I'll have a look at that forum. Wow thanks for the responses!
