I need Help....

Post by CCFR-45 » Fri Dec 28, 2018 9:12 pm

Hey Guys,

I've accepted the challenge of making an exact replica of the Tahoe for the Sheriff I work for. I need to figure out how to make the rear lighting system on the Tahoe.

Here is the back of the Tahoe.

I need to know some good idea's on how to make the lights above the rear window and the light pods around the license plates.

I was thinking some evergreen plastic pieces, but I'm not sure how well that will look.

Any help would be great,

~Steven

For my models in 1:43 scale, I use thin strips of Evergreen plastic. I run a black sharpie over the surfaces that wont be glued. When dry, I use my LED decals and place them one at a time. I cut really close to the decal, so not much clear overlaps the strip of plastic. Then I just glue them up under the visor. Here is one using a Ford, but it gives you the idea. I would do the same for a larger scale, just use bigger LED decals. I do the same for the LED lights near the license plate. I just use one decal, and use a razor blade to cut the plastic strips, then touch up with a new Sharpie.
