My HD War Machine suit (PIC-HEAVY) I'm back, new design too

So I'm using Epoxamite 100 with the 101 hardener, it came with a few pumps that are designed to pour the correct amount of part A and B, it came with 3 pumps, one for the epoxamite 100 and one for the 101 fast hardener. The third is if you are using the 102 or 103 hardener, so no need to with or mark any cups to be able to get the correct mix. So the correct mix every time.



Also I bought a bunch of cups, Popsicle sticks for sanding, fiber glass cloth, a heat gun, masks, goggles, primers etc...

My best friend the .8mm ink-less pen best thing to score the lines

So here are the first two torsos I try to make one too big, one too small:
far left too small, center too big, right the correct size



Here is the correct measurement , scale used 1.690000



Here is the thigh scaled at 1.490000



And here is the shin scaled at 1.490000

Great work so far!

Man, how do you guys work so fast?! Those pieces look great.

Thanks man!
hahahaha when you have all the time in the world (lost my job)you can build faster, also I used the join/disjoin option to put together some of the pieces, so less cutting and less gluing.....

Here is the color scheme I'm going for:

That's a pretty slick color scheme. Good work so far!

Awwwwwww SNAP! you never told me you had started this! finish that chest that's too big and send it to me lol!

ooops! The wife sent it out to her brother already; crap I should have told you....She got her brother into doing this...

haha, it's cool I was just kiddin with ya

wait until you see what I'm doing with my IM helmet I got from you! that thing is looking pretty sick!

So here is another update; first boot finished




I left a little opening so I can pour the epoxamite in



I edited the boot model again, it's just to be cut a little easier and less problems when I glue the pieces. Let's see how the end product looks like....

Awesome looking helmet!

Dude that's just aawesome how long did the process take and how much did the matrials cost, I'm kinda of a newb at this

Thank bro...So far in materials I think around $250-$300, cutting the thigh was around 4 hrs, and another 3 more putting them together.....

So time for another update; I have the pair of boots made and I will stop gluing for a while and concentrate on doing the whole fiber glassing and bondo on the boots, that way if I screw something up at least is not a big piece. I received a surprise gift from my wife, Bondo and spot putty, so I get to practice yay!!!!

This its cool..I like the fact that you are putting the scale..by the way what shore size n scale you used for boots? Thanks..i'm making my own my first helmet came out huge then my second came out small i'm making my third now the good thing you get to know which part is which ..by the third one..lol

I used Zabana's boot file and increased it by 10% and fit just fine with my sneakers, by the way I'm a 10.5 US size...I will be posting pictures soon...

Finished the neck, I used 4mm foam and Self adhesive Velcro and reinforced it with hot glue...
