Everyone is going to be different. I am only 5' 5" so my forearms are not 11" long. Plus, this doesn't go all the way down to the wrist bone based on all my reference images not just the figurine.

You will have to adjust the scale to fit your body. You can also adjust the page margins to 8mm which will work for most printers. I have the margins set to 13mm top and bottom and 11mm on the sides for my Cameo cutting machine.

These files are going to be pretty much the same scale as Robo3687's files. So, the default scale on his files was 25, I was setting mine at 21. If you change it to 25 then they will print up at about the same size as his files.

That makes sense. Thank you so much for your help and for these files. You're doing an amazing job!

i did extend it because i just printed out the templates i didnt try adjusting any scale. i just made it work

Gotcha, yeah it threw me off, but it looks really good. Can't wait to see it finished.

Amazing Work! Suscribed thread!

Lookin really good!!

nice work man, can't wait to see the rest

Just a quick little update to let you know I didn't drop off the face of the earth. Nope, gravity is still holding me here but unfortunately I did get sick and have spend a lot of time the last couple of days recuperating. I should be back at it in another day or two.

wow looking back at the first mk 3 biceps and forearms they were so bad glad i remade them. but i am going to restart the whole suit now with the thicker foam i just need to get my hands on some 6mm eva flooring lol

no new parts yet?

Why do you this to me Darkside! Why!!



This is amazing! I now have to make room for this build!
I wanted to start sculpting the MK VII suit from scratch but I figured it might not be in the movie since it was still in "TBA" status.

I even sold my iron man helmet.. But! I shall now make one!
On with this build sire!

I will show you my gratitude once I have completed this build!

cant wait to see some more of this build

Yeah, no problem. Also, one of the guys is modifying my pep files for foam builds. Look through the posts to find his links. I might put them on the first post soon.
