hey everyone.

so im going to be making an ironman MKVII costume and i have read everywhere that you should use 6mm thick EVA foam but i have now just read that you should use 6mm eveyrwhere but the head which should be 4mm thick. is this right i should i use 6mm all around?

thanks:)
 
i used 6mm foam for the head and 7mm for the rest of the suit, i came out ok (i think).
so just try making one helmet with 6mm, just need to do a little trick with the border line when cutting it, good luck :D
 
Do a search as the topic has been covered quite a bit. Some of the suggestions or breaking away from foam when it comes to the head due to the nature of it and doing it in fiberglass resin. If you read some of the WIP helmet threads you can see what type of issues others have come across and how to handle them.
