Secret to Simple Trans-Yellow

Last year I messed with various solutions for changing trans-clear to trans-yellow and after failing to achieve anything acceptable, I nearly gave up. Then I realized I'd overlooked the simplest (and what I now believe to be the best) solution: permanent marker.

 

It's great because the color is spot on, it's safe from coming off when handling, and all that is required to revert it back to trans-clear is some rubbing alcohol.

 

Some of my personal builds using this technique (marker was applied both inside and out):

 

Surface Strider

Lunar Dune Crawler

 

Go and make some great new builds now that the trans-yellow gates are wide open :D
