Ork stompa LED AND MAGNETIZED

Hello boyz i haven't posted in a while.
So here i am wasting my day, magnetizing a stompa, that i recently got thru a day deal.
And there it sruck me, if i could LED a landraider, why cant i LED STOMPA???

So i did.
i started by buying 50 led from ebay for 2$ and 50 resistors for 2$
there's a website that allows ya to calculate resistors resistance, just plug in the current, outgoing voltage of LED, number of LEDs and the 9v battery. it gives you the whole soldering scheme
http://led.linear1.org/led.wiz
keep it bookmarked, cool website
now that you know what ohm resistance you need you can buy the resistors, ive kept my resistors in a line of 3 parallelly connected.
so 9 LEDs in total.

Heres a line of LEDs and a resistor.

I will have 3 pf them: Two in the body, and one in the head.

To make it more cool i will cut our all the grots(on the walls of the stompa) back plates and illuminate them too.

Heres a head LED chain being secured and isolated with hot glue. the glue would get painted black to not let any extra light out from the head.

There should be a switch nearby the battery as well

This is where i am gonna build battery cage:

LEDs are all sanded out , that gives them more light spread, instead or narrow light.

Here are some magnetizing pictures:
