Somebody did it, just a bit differently :-D
#BOBOXIE - nixie / vfd tube style desktop clock
You could make a tube of addressable individual LEDs like these: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100pcs-APA106-F5-5mm-RGB-LED-Chips-Integrated-RGB-LEDs-like-WS2812B-APA106-round-hat-Full/32713208268.html
but it wouldn't be as much fun. Better yet, put Forth on the STM8s: https://hackaday.io/project/16097

I can dig it!! I a really like that you are using STM8, lot of nice affordable chips that no one seems to use. I wanna give them a try too someday!!
