OSL Fire Prism - Update 7.5

I know that I said that I was completely done painting the tank in the last update, but I just didn't like the way the canopies looked. They seemed too light colored to be believable (image on left). After all, if so little light gets out the canopy that I cannot see the crew inside, then it must be dark. The picture below (on right) shows the second repainting of the canopies. The first repainting just involved shading the current paint job with successive thin layers of black to make it darker. This turned out to be too blah--with the black fading up to a dark gray. The current version fades from black to purple to blue. I like it better.
