Hi,
I am one question, on pics(Prime Portal) is periscope red-orange mirrors ( as sunglasses), but in instruction sheet is blue clear.
Thanks

The periscopes on the Panther have a laser reflective coating that looks similar to mirror sunglasses. Some folks use the ends of 35mm film to replicate the surface, others use mylar confetti that you can find in party stores.

There are also chrome metallic nail polish colors in colors similar to the color of the coating.

Thanks Robin.

I use Ginos (HeavyArty) methode. I paint the periscope black and cover it with clear red and then finish it off with a rather thick gloss coat. Works fine for me.

Although they reflect mostly red, you do get a prism effect if you look at them from different angles. Also they reflect brighter than the non-laser safe ones, unless the design has been changed.
