FirstCoastFett[501st] Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 looking to make shims for a few parts and also to make extra inner shims for all the pieces. looking to match the coloring of the white. I'm aware of the thickness I'll need. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Depending on the size of the shims and the width of the cover strips you need, you may be able to use the ABS that you trimmed from the kidney, chest, or ab pieces.

FirstCoastFett[501st] Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 I had thought about that. just gonna need to be creative with the curves on the scraps. maybe a swim in some boiling water to flatten them out should probably do the trick. fingers crossed I'll have enough!

Cowboy Kylo[501st] Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 You can get abs 1.5mm cover strip material from ATA armor, just got a couple sheets myself ataworks@yahoo.com Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle good Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Ross, can you let us know how the color compares of the ATA material to the Anovos armor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK8114[TK] Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Using plastic from different builders is always a gamble, but since Anovos used custom plastic its even potentially worse. Please let us know how it matches and make sure to take pictures in different lighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLilTK[TK] Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I bought hand plates from ATA and compared them to Anovos. The match looked really good. I've requested some extra for shimming now too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robotster[TK] Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Just an FYI, I messed up a bit and needed a new forearm strip. I purchased an Evergreen #9060 styrene sheet. The Evergreen styrene is noticeably whiter than the Anovos white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylverbard[TK] Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Anovos is a off white satin finish. Really noticable with new white boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
