Been working on some little details...like this silly hl headlights



Hit it with a razor saw and ....



I am kinda thinking about making it into a "ir" light...late in the war the germans were looking at ways they could move and fight at night to avoid air power. To do this the "right" way, they would need a ir tight for the driver, one for the gunner and one for the comander.I am kicking around the idea of making the front light larger( cutting up a ball point pin body) and adding a red tinted "lense"....since the tank is going to be a fighter, I can make the ir bulb from the battle system into a light on the mantel sorta like the t55's( where do you think they got the idea?) and then rig something for the comander...this is a good sitefor german ir stuff
