whats the best color to paint periscope glass on the pershing cupola

chris

old style is clear,modern can be tinted,its as simple as that,its down to the modeller how its interprated

Hi Chris
Modelair do a color called periscope, it"s a greeny/blue,i use it it"s spot on when dry cover with clear. hope this helps....Brian,

that sounds like an idea I've tried esp on modern mind you M1 Abrams periscopes have a pinkish tint,on WW2 models I use a pencil to burnish the solid plastic surface and find that light catches the shine like glass does

thanks for the help guys
