I am trying to replicate a really good periscope and vision port configuration but spraying combinations of clear paint seems a little bit too cliche. I was looking for DVD's but it doesnt really work well on my MGS. Any suggestions?

Sean,
Visit your local Card and Party store, or the like. Look for Mylar confetti. It's small strips and pieces of shiny, multi-colored bits of mylar. Find the purple/green ones, cut them to fit your peri blocks.
Just an idea,

I'm completely aware of this method, just hoping it was something else out there

Thanks Frenchy! More so for the proof that I somehow absorb what I've read. I didn't remember reading the technique there until I read it again. Well, I had to have read that, right?
Right?
