Re: esb gaunts paint details
well then what are the awnsers? I couldn't find them around here...
Re: esb gaunts paint details
I've actually never noticed that before. I don't have a black spot there on my ESB gauntlets though I'm needing an upgrade on them sometime soon.
Re: esb gaunts paint details
hmmm... I have a black spot now aswell... but thats just it, is it a black spot... or a push button?? hmmm... gues a spot will do for now...:b
Re: esb gaunts paint details
I haven't looked at the gauntlet's in awhile, but I do believe it's a raised portion of the gauntlet painted black to look like a button- not a physical button like we see on the inside of the right gauntlet.
In regard to the painted numbers on the MQ-1, I've researched that in the past and I am very skeptical that the numbers are painted. The Mq-1 buttons are extremely reflective and can produce a "painted" effect under various lighting conditions.
However, this is simply my opinion, as definite reference is lacking to prove the issue one way or the other.

Re: esb gaunts paint details
I see what you mean... **** that lack of reference for ESB...
And I'll stick with a black square then...
an whats up with the "orange" on the flamethrower, wich appears red in some pics? (I know , I know, 20 year old photo/film footage under different lighting etc etc... its still frustrating :b )
Re: esb gaunts paint details
Actually, the photo in the bottom left corner in the above image is a great example of why I think the buttons are not painted: you would never be able to get ALL the buttons to reflect like that if they were painted.
Re: esb gaunts paint details
yups... but isnt it possible their done with some brght shiny paint? or that theres a shiny layer over the entire keyad?
Re: esb gaunts paint details
It didn't have to be painted to be shiny, the MQ-1 keypad is shiny metal ;)
Re: esb gaunts paint details
:) hmmm... but the rotj version was painted right?
so ESB was just plain simple metal look (shiny), rotj was with the red an blue buttons...
