1/35 HEMTT Explorer

I just downloaded pics of solar panels for future reference.

I uploaded a small PDF to Dropbox of the 60 cell solar panel

The typical 60 cell panel is 39" x 66" (0.99m x 1.68m). In 1/35, it would be 27.5mm x 47.9mm

Would that work out better if you printed it as a photo or document?

It's not grayscale, so printing it as a document should work

Though a photo would get you the semi gloss effect straight away, and it'd not need gluing to sheet to stiffen it.

Now I have to think of a project requiring solar panels!

Rick - they're printed on photo paper, just semi-gloss, not glossy. They're fairly stiff but not scale accurate (should be around 1mm thick).

I redid the panel supports; I'll post a picture tomorrow.

Ken - print a sheet and store it for when you have a project that needs it! The panels have a white section near the edges that is aluminum colored on the real thing. You can just trim them away, just leaving the panels.
