That "anodising in a can" lacquer is great stuff - I use it not only to colour my custom made adapters for AP, but I also use it to make red torches - I find 3 coats over the lens is sufficient to give a nice medium-dim red.

Yes it's very nice stuff, particularly when sprayed over the gold.
I've been working my dodgy electrical skills for a couple of days getting in these 180 Lumen LEDs behind some opaque perspex. Vision is limited, but I can still see what's in front of me.
The lights have kill switches inside the helmet, as well as contacts on the faceplate to cheek that activate the eyes once the faceplate is down.
Still having problems with the faceplate mechanism stripping the plastic gear on the servo though. I feel some superglue is needed....
So that's where it went.
