Updated Question; A certain part of the armor, the Visor of the helmet, I wanted it to glow... Preferably with a color-changing capability. I thought of lining it with EL wire or something, but tests have proved.. troublesome. The visor (Not actualy there yet, I don't have any materials. I tested this with a peice of 4" by 6" peice of window glass. And with blue)
What I'm asking is; Should I use a specific glass? Which side of the helm should it be on? Should I use a special type of EL? This need to be so I can still SEE out of the helmet. With little more than a tint...
I'm banking on the visibilty being DRASTICALLY reduced. So, if this isn't possible, is there a place I can get one-way glass in red, purple, blue or gold?
