A place to get little lanterns/lamps for 1/64th scale ships


Recommended Posts

Greetings all! I just picked up a rather nice LED lighting set via Evan Designs and was wondering if there are any little lanterns or lamps on the market (between 4-8 mm) that could be used for a ship models interior lighting.  I've checked ages of sale and also the Syren company has that nice rear lantern though what I'm looking for is more like the interior lamps like these in HMS Victory below.  I'd consider doing them scratch but would prefer to at least find some photo etched brass parts or somesuch as I will happily utilize what's out there in the market. :)

Charles,

 

Check here:  http://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/cgi-bin/ss000001.pl?page=search&PR=-1&TB=A&SS=lantern   It looks like they might have what you need. There's a bunch of pages of nothing but lanterns.  :)   I know I saw some from Mantua that looked similar to what you want.
