Buttons?


Recommended Posts

Will the stock button plates on my AM armor pass for EIB? Here's a snapshot of them. It was suggested recently by a friend that they would not, but I dont see anything in the CRL  for EIB, just Basic and Centurion.. Thanks for your time.

Hiya.

Here’s a lovely screen used example. :-)

Great reference photo, Dan. Thanks!

Am I correct in saying the button is only painted on top, and not the walls (for want of a better term)?

I’m sure I’ve seen a diagram illustrating this. Perhaps a Billgram?

Dan gave you a perfect example of a screen-used reference, Robert.  Hopefully you used E-6000 to attach them!  If it helps, I did the exact same thing on my first AM build.  Took me a bit of work to get them off, but worth it in the end.  Using that reference pic as a guids, I would trim them as seen below:

Good observation!!  You are correct.  The paint is not supposed to cover the entire button.

As they were all hand painted, each will be a little bit differs. However, as you say, this one has a little of each raised circle unpainted.


As if by magic, this is probably what you were thinking of. Just bear in mind, this might vary a little from armour maker to armour maker. For example, AP has very large buttons.

could someone tell me what is the correct colours for the buttons ?
 
thanks

Hiya,

This is a handy resource. The ab buttons use the same colours as the helmet.
