                        Hasegawa's 1/48 Raptor kit comes with two canopies- one clear and one tinted, so you pays your money and you takes your choice!

                        Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...

                        Afternoon everyone,

                            I am looking for help on replicating the goldish tint on the F22 Raptor.  I have some pictures where it is clearly visible and osme where it looks like regular tint.  Anyoen know of a way to replicate this?  Normally I would  search my nearby hobby store, but it is notorious for being limited on paint supplies. (Hobby Lobby).

                         

                        Swannys write up on future mentions using food colouring though I've never tried it:
