It's usually much closer to 1V as KG said as he uses 1.7V LEDs and Vbe is closer to 0.7V. If using higher voltage LEDs I would compensate with resistance accordingly.
Voltage cross the resistor is LED voltage minus base-emitter voltage - roughly 1.9V – 0.6V = 1.3V.
So approximately current through R33/Q17 2.5 mA (RV2 centered) and R50/Q20 4mA. Those values will depend on the individual components.
Into the Badlands -- martial arts of the completely unrealistic school, lots of wirework, swordplay, post-post-apocalyptic society, barren and windswept wastelands, a 5 ring Chinese broadsword, Nick Frost, plenty of hot chicks and gruesome violent deaths, what more could a boy want?
