Lighting customization for 1/18 model car by Modell Lichtsysteme
German company "Modell Lichtsysteme] Is a company that gives light to 1/18 size model cars (minicars).
In other words ... Not for radio-controlled models, but for 1/18 size model cars such as ordinary minichamps and autoart, the lights of those model cars do not shine, but the "lights" of those model cars are on. It will be customized like this.
However, if you say that the light is on, that may be all.
But it's amazing. By turning on the light, the model car will be alive at once, or the "model car feeling" will disappear, and the "real feeling" of the model will be improved.
Porsche 911 Turbo S model car customization
For example, this Porsche 911 Turbo S.
Originally it is a model car made by Minichamps, but it is lit.
Headlights (daytime running lights) are also on this street. The blinker also lights up.
The rear tail light looks like this and is the real thing.
There is a Ferrari in the back, but if you look closely at both of them, the lighting from the top of the license plate is also shining properly.
"The same lighting as the real thing" to such details makes the model car feel like "Is this a real car?" At once.
Even when I watch the video, I start to think "Is it a real car? It's cool", but in reality, it's a 1:18 size model car that fits in the palm of your hand.
No, it's cool! No matter how you look at it, it only looks like a real car ↓
Here is a video. Ferrari is also amazing, so please take a look ^ ^
Audi RS7 model car customization (serious)
Now, let's take a look at this 2014 Audi RS7 model car, which I would like to introduce in this blog.
First of all, the SEIKO watch is placed next to the model car so that you can see the size of the model car.
The 1/18 size model car is larger than the size of Tomica etc., but you can see that it is considerably smaller than the actual car.
This Audi original model car is a 1/18 model of "Minicraft Gravitas".
It is customized by adding lighting to it, but it seems that the lighting is exactly the same as the original lighting of the actual Audi RS7 car.
Even if you open the door and look inside the car, you can see this street. amazing.
Every detail is lit like a real car. I don't think I'm looking inside the model car ...
By the way, this interior light is also designed to "light up when you open the door", so it will not shine when the door is closed.
Can you see it in this image?
Even the ambient lights in the car are complete ↓
A magnetic switch is prepared separately for turning on the lights of the car, and when you bring it closer, the headlights turn on (as mentioned above, the lights inside the car are turned on by opening the door in the same way as the actual car).
Moreover.
Cornering lights are also installed, so if the tires turn to the right, the lights will also illuminate to the right. You can also make high beams. It's too amazing! !!
The rear spoiler part is also movable.
The tail light and the light of the license plate part.
When you step on the brakes ... you can see that the third brake light above the rear window is also lit.
Anyway, it's really amazing, so please take a look at the video ~.
I don't think it's a 1/18 model car.
I want you to make something like this with your own car model ~ ^^
Here is the video ↓
