Lighting tower for night diorama.

[niner]

After toying with the idea of a night time diorama with my custom Komatsu PC1100 here The night shift

I have been thinking of making an LED equipped lighting tower to light up the working area and the machines.

I have bought the LED's to start, 4 x 3mm superbright white and they would look something like this-

They have sold me one with a blue tinge to it, need to change that.

All 4 together look to be too bright so I am wondering whether I leave it as a 4 light tower or do 2 x 2 lighting towers. Any thoughts going by the pics?

Its very bright but some of that might be disperced once behind some form of lens cover .
