Chest looks awesome Stealth, what pep file are you using? Is it Dancin Fool's with less pieces?
 
Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

another piece pepped and before breakfast, damn you're fast stealth, lookin good! also i know what you are saying about the 8 - 10 min pot life with the epoxamite 101, thats why i use the 102(medium) you get about half hour pot life, plenty of time to finish whatever you are working on before it gels, only draw back is a 14hr cure time ! the resin is the same it is just the hardeners that are different, so you can always just pick up a different hardener for it. did you get the dispensing pumps as well?

Yeah man. I got the pumps. I think you have to. It seems kinda thick. I don't know how I'd use it without them.

I don't have any problems with the 101, I'm happy with it. I work fast enough to not have any real issues. :)
 
Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

Seriously stealth, i think you can split into 4 people and you just bust these out fast. Amazing work =]

Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

Wow. Thanks so much guys. If you guys see me in person pepping you'll think my hand is possessed. It really flies around the tabs lol.

I'm determined to finish this build this year.
 
Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

Finished the back. It was a lot easier than the front.

Also, I'm doing the helmet over. I was actually ready to start sculpting but I wasn't happy with it, so I'm re pepping it using the same file.
Should have that updated in a few days.

I did have some time to resin the front Chest section of the torso before I left for work this afternoon.
It's dry now so I thought I show it before I glass the inside.

Going to do the flaps before I redo the helmet. I want to get those out of the way first.

Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

Looking really good buddy, def the best pep guy I know. ;) This is just oozing win already. :lol:cool
 
Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

Dude, how many arms do you have...? You gotta have at least six to work that accurate, that fast. Or is it that you've learned to slow down time?

Man! Amazing!! :)
 
Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

Thank guys!
I'm Hoping to get the whole suit pepped, resined and glassed before the end of april so I can start working on it in the spring.

The key for me is a sharp blade and no ruler.
I have a 100-pack of blades for the hobby knife
I use a fresh one for major pieces and 1 for 2-3 small pieces then throw it away.
 
Re: IRON MAN - Mark III Armor Build

awesome work what pep files are you using? looks like a mk IV on the collarbone? isnt this a mark 3?
