As many have seen I am completely new to this modeling hobby. I am curious if it is possible to tint the windshields and glasses on these vehicles? My interior on my truck is horrid. I actually broke the steering column at the steering wheel by putting too much glue causing the wheel to sag down, I tried to slightly bend it back up and the "ball" where it connects to the back of the steering wheel snapped off...Not too mention my detail painting is just as gross looking on the gauge cluster/dash. I have a magnified lamp coming to the house which should be here within a few days. I also managed to get way too much cement on the interior floor of the truck and it "melted" it in some areas. I think just calling this interior a loss is going to be the best bet. Tinting the windows will hide the lack of skills for me this time around while I await my magnifier and practice my detail painting!
if you look at the side windows they are tinted blue. The way I did it was to really thin my paint untill there is very little color. Paint on window. The strength of the tint will show in the mixing. NOTE : use a white palete or paper plate to see how much tint you want
Try clear acrylic paints such as Tamiya clear blue, clear green etc & smoke colors
A friend of mine hates building aircraft cockpit interiors, so he just paints the insides of the canopies sky blue. I imagine this would work for cars, too....
Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...

Scratchbuilder725 is correct. Those Tamiya clear paints are the best. Just be careful not to over spray. You may want to do it in layers and it will give you a great finish.
