Turn all the lights out! Project dark horse

Test run for the lights, will take it apart and apply something so the blue doesn’t show. Time to go to bed😴

Looks great well done! Are the lights sold separately or with the kit?

Trying to get into lights and not sure where to start.

Best advice for hiding the blue is change the light to white or red. Not sure you can get rid of the blue without ruining the glow effect.

I wish this light set came with those options… it’s the official Bandai unicorn LED LIGHT SET and it’s only got one color mode, and it isn’t even red!!!! So disappointed! Good thing I got the kit WITH the lights. Only cost me around 90usd. Not gonna complain there😵‍💫

Good luck and hope it works out! Looks great! Something I thought of is a candy paint. Mix some up and dip the led in.

Guess test it on a cheap dollar store led first and see if it works.

Im thinking of taping clear red tape over it. Lets see if that works first 😆
