Hey all,
To add some detail to my M1 and my daughter's Leopard, I want to pick up some reflective coating to simulate the real viewports on our tanks. Trying to determine what color to use is difficult though as it seems the real units change color depending on the angle you look at them. I'm leaning to "rose gold" reflective covering, not gold, not blue. I know the Leopard came with blue decals but they look like blue decals and are not reflective.
I thought I read somewhere that especially on the viewports, the lenses have a special coating on them thus producing their unique color. The funny thing is I work at a place that can produce these, but even if I wanted to make scale ones, we don't have the machine time to do it.
Anyway, just looking for some color advice. The stuff is pretty cheap so it's easy enough to change I suppose if it doesn't work out.
