Can anyone advise on how to replicate damaged bullet proof glass (without using real glass).
Looking to do a modern diorama with a Gaz vehicle that has been ambushed and crashed.
But can’t figure how to replicate the damage to the amoured glass.
Wondering if superglue of some such could produce the frosted appearance.
Has anyone succeed with this before and have a good way to do so?
Thanks!
While I’ve seen great cracked glass effects on microscope slides, what you’re showing would be difficult, and you don’t want glass anyway. I would try gouging scrap plastic with a heated X-Acto blade.
Another possibility is a pointed diamond tipped or carbide engraver on a Dremel. You can gouge and possibly add some very fine spider cracks with it.
Use clear plastic. Apply Tamiya clear green. Gouge the plastic with the tip of a #11 blade. Apply little dots and scrapes of white paint to the gouges.
I did this on an armored Suburban a while ago. I cut and chipped the plastic windows with an Xacto blade, then gave it a white wash for the hazy effect.
You could also use a cellphone protective screen. Bigger than a microscope slide, a plastic layer to hold it together, and not wildly expensive.
Thanks guys.
I have a few dremel heads around somewhere and will go at the window with a blade also them.
I’ll pick up some Tamiya clear green as well.
I have blue and red and they are great for lights etc.
Cheers for the advice 
If you are doing the really thick glass, like on a humvee, MRAP, or similar, you can use thin 1/16 or 1.5mm acrylic plastic (Plexiglass, Perspex).
Add damage as descried above.

This is a microscope cover glass sandwiched between peel and stick laminating film. Unfortunately, it’s real glass, but it looks very realistic. No scribing, just strike it with a pin.
give this site a look they have some very good how tos
