awesome dude, so much detail,
Here is some rendering for the suit model, extended up from biceps a silver band. It's going to seam the biceps and shoulder armor well with that
and half the suit in render shade (I'm just product guy not cgi artist... not familiar in adding texture effect to it lol....)
Let's see how it turned out

The only thing that concerns me will be mobility in this suit. When adding these armpit pieces, elbow and rear knee pieces you do get a full enclosed armor that looks great but you can't move.
These rubber underpieces will need to be be super flexible and cast as colored silicone or something, since painting a ultra flexible item is basically not going to happen. Person wearing this is gonna be HOT, sweaty and stinky
Ha... I think it's gonna be thinner piece to bring more flexibility to movement, for sure we need to try out some other option for material.
What lucky is the big armpit part is in single color, so if there is way to thin with color in silver may works too

Yes.. most of the flexible parts will be cast by urethane rubber color tinted for easy movement. All the joint parts and insert parts, But the waist armor should remain the same hard rubber material painted. ; )

I wonder why you make the waist section in rubber? I can see that fiberglass would be VERY heavy and not great. It is great to keep the weight down, which is probably the idea.
The material you have in your MKIV/VI is flexible but only at the expense of the paint since the paint is not flexible. Have you thought about thermoforming it in ABS? The detailing might be a bit hard to get right, but it's just a thought.
I think I said it before but I like repeating myself (not really, I just forget if I said it... old age you know).
Make sure that you scale all of the parts to someone the size of the the actual suit. The gloves and fingers should be around a size 11/12, the openings of the arm parts and leg parts should also be scales for a large person.
There was some modification required on my part to get my big knees to fit comfortable in the bottom of the thigh and top of the shin and the rubber insert on the wrist was a bit small.
All of this was modifiable, but it would be great if it didn't have to be
I know with your attention to detail and maybe a little input from a big guy you're going to get a home run on this one.
Lol... thanks .
Yeah ... ive start printing the helmet and some parts . Will post some update after receive the printed parts .
Ive push the start button and post in JY . Feel free to have a look .
