Re: JUICE's WAR MACHINE - Pepakura FOAM Template Files Thread
The chest looks great and you did a good job on the helmet considering it's foam
but I'm not a big fan of the foam helmets for myself.
I believe at least the helmet should be finished in some kind of resin and sanded with filler.
It's the focal point of the build where everyone will look at first. You'd want it looking as real/sharp as possible.
That being said, if you have no interest in sanding and all that fuss then keep building and going till the finish.

Hey Clinton
the scale is around 1.8 default. I think that was for someone 5'6-5'9 from the early testing days for the upper half, but the legs were for someone 5' 10 ish.
you'll have to play around with that as the suit was modelled from the action figure with not the most realistic proportions.
Steff maybe I missed it in the thread but didn't find it. What's the scale on these pieces? Would like to get something close to what Randy has done with his Mark3.

Re: JUICE's WAR MACHINE - Pepakura FOAM Template Files Thread
Ill think about doing that later. I resined and fiberglassed it before but it did not turn out the way I wanted it to..Plus it was way too big..thats why I switched to foam..I saw your vids and I liked the way your iron man was turning out so I just started foaming. But I might do it again. Helmets turn out kinda boxy in foam

I saw in a few of these posts that it was scaled up for a few people - is there a link to the scaled up version? I am 6'1" - 230lbs and would love to start on this next since im almost finished with my Mark VI foam build - any help with the scaling would be awesome thanks!

Re: JUICE's WAR MACHINE - Pepakura FOAM Template Files Thread
Do I just do the same scaling for the rest of the pieces as whats set for the chest and back? Wasn't sure if the same scaling would work for all the files.

Ok cool, just wasn't sure about the waist or length of the leg sections meeting up. Will be starting this in the next week as soon as I finish strapping the Mark VI and painting it.

Re: JUICE's WAR MACHINE - Pepakura FOAM Template Files Thread
I noticed that the War Machine set is missing elbows, and the bicep does not connect to the forearm in any way.
There also is not a file for the guns on War Machine's arms (which should connect to where the big flat area is). Any plans to release foam-friendly templates for the guns?

Hmmm I don't know about the guns. But I have seen someone use the IM MVI forearms as a base. Then putting the WM gauntlets over them. This little step solves the elbow issue. Because the WM bicep does have a tab for attaching the elbow. Hope this helps. If I can find the thread I saw it in I will post it.
