Wonderful work man how is the weight. I have always wanted to wear one of my costumes, especially Iron Man , or Predator out to a mall or premier, but I never had the guts. Great pix, looks like you had a blast.

Hey fingaz how comeni never see you wearing an handplate ?
Also... are you trying to take over the world ? Wht are you making all these armors hahaha
Great progress though !!! You killing me...first the mark iv then the vi and now the markiii ?
Please make the mark vii

Hi again omarbou1,
The handplates are fitted to the ones stood in my living room.But when going out never bother wearing them,due to them being a little restrictive on hand movement when bowling,lifting weights,eating chicken or popcorn lol.(no one really notices)
The mkiii i'm not building,it's robosteve's suit he's had me painting for what seems like a eternity, lol sorry steve had to get that one in, ha ha.
As for the nxt build,once all the suits in my living room are done i've a few old project i need to get out of the way.

Love all of the pictures! Fantastic work as always!!

Deric as always thanks very much,im looking well forward to seeing you and the family all suited up:thumbsup cowabunga dude.

Thanks Elderpred13,the weight isnt that bad,but can be a little uncomfortable when wore for extented periods of time,as it's all carried on the shoulders.
The fun outweighs the pain,and remember if it gets a little too much, TAKE THE SUIT OFF, superhero's need a rest sometime. lol
Elderpred13 pluck up the courage,get your suit on,get out there and have a ball,you'll love it!!!!!!!! n remember to post some pics:thumbsup

Nice pics fingaz!!!!! It is always nice to get out and about in the suit and have some fun, the reactions are awesome!!...

I can definitely sympathize with the long period wearing problems, as all of the weight of my suit is also on the shoulders, I am working on a new strapping system that will allow me to transfer the lower body weight to my hips and pelvis, I am hoping that will help......

I posted some pix in the showcase section, look for "some of my other personalities." Maybe one day I will suit up, and go to the mall just for grins.

Fantastic photos fingaz love seeing your MK4 just wondering for your moulds what material are you using for the rigid mother mould? I've been moulding my MK6 and applied blaster bandages followed by fibreglassing and it seems a bit long winded. Thanks JJ

Seen the pics Elderpred13,if you're suiting up at cons,just think of the mall as your own con :lol

This suit is testament to what hard work, patience and lots of skill can achieve.
I'm simply blown away at the level of detail you've managed to craft, not to mention the outstanding paint job that just caps of what is an amazing piece of art.
I'm totally inspired to having a go at a pep suit (done a foam one) after reading every single page of your thread.

This is the benchmark all other suits are measured by

Wow mate, I've just spent the last two days reading through your thread. I have started building a pep helmet but now I think Its got to be a full suit like yours
I have an entertainment business where we do characters like mickey mouse and spiderman so Iron Man was a thought so started googling and finally found your build.
I MUST build one
I Live in North Lincs so if you have an hour to spare I'll buy you a coffee/pint and see if i can pick your brains

you can sell me a suit of iron man?
