Revell 1/72 MV-22 Osprey

Hi all,

Here is the first model aircraft I've build since I was a kid.

This is the Revell 1/72 MV-22 Osprey modified with more accurate exterior fittings, interior details, lighting and motors for the propellers.

I've created a short video of the completed build :-



Here are some still photos :-

What a difference lighting makes.

The interior detailing looks great. That plus the lighting and spinning blades makes this one awesome build. Very nice work!

Very nicely done with the lighting, motors, and extra attention to details. Makes for a great display piece.

Lighting makes a big difference, its makes it look so live!! Congratulations!

Also what camera equipment did you used for the shots? Great contrast of shadow and light! It makes a "dramatic" kinda look to the model! Great built!

Outstanding work, hard to believe it's 1/72 from the photos.

Manuel is right your lighting makes all the hard interior work you did really POP!

Thanks all for your feedback. I spent a lot of time on the lighting and pleased it made a difference in the photos.

Manuel - re camera - I used an Olympus mirrorless camera to take the photos.

Amazing build, I love the lighting.

Fantastic job. I need to learn how to light models now.

Thanks all. The lighting was actually fairly basic - just a few LEDs, resistors and wires; no fancy circuits or anything.

If anyone wants more info on how to light models, just let me know.

Cheers
