I am a miniature model maker and been looking at controlling some individual LEDs (street lights, airport runways, etc...)
Most web info i have found talks about the Arduino boards, but they are limited to just a few lights.
My questions are:
1- can i control just individual LEDs?
2- Where can i get an already made board (not good with electronics)
Thanks

You'd probably want to multiplex the Arduino outputs into a matrix. Using regular multiplexing, for example, you could light 16 lights from 8 I/O pins, 64 lights from 16 pins, etc. If you use Charlieplexing with LED lights under the right circumstances, you can get even more per pin.
Try looking up those terms for circuit ideas, there are many out there.
