Hi,

I’ve had this idea for some time - but here’s the difference. My kit would be a sealed up one so when the lights were dimmed it would be like looking into a real tank at night time! Very cosy and realistic.  

 

One thing:

 

I beleive the interior lights for the Germans was blue!

 

Ill guess that it was red for Russians and Green for the US.  I’m almost certain with the Germans and US but the Russians is a guess.  Bottom line is you can’t use white or yellow light because of night vision.

 

Well done for showing some brass balls in using the leds!

I wasn't really looking to make the lights historically accurate since I was more of looking to show off the interior with a bright LED. With the LEDs, I used you could definitely get away with taking a blue colored sharpie and color over top of the LED to make it a "blue" light.
