Just a bit of story to these buttons in case anyone is interested. Believe it or not only 1 out of 5 buttons end up making the cut. U should see the massive pile of rejects I have stacking up on my workbench[emoji47] The buttons are cast face down so I have no idea what they will look like until I they come out of the molds and are sanded and polished. If they pass the grade they then get 3 coats of CA then sanded and polished again.

I really like the look of that Resin you posted.

If you decide to do custom acp buttons, let me know. I have some 44-40 that I would love to have in a button. But count me in for a resin when you get ready.

I checked this book out at the library today. I hope I learn something for yours and my own sake[emoji1]

I like that pattern/design. Could you do it in a black and white combo?;)
Yes...stay tuned. You will see a whole bunch more layered designs coming. My whites so far have been ending up slightly amber due to the pearl pigment added as well as the inherent color of the resin I have been using. I am working on getting a truer white using a different resin.

Very good! Count me in. What about adding a little silver metal flake to the black layer? ;) what you think?
