You can apply as is, some people prefer to dilute it with water but I prefer not to as I find that tends to cause bubbles. If there are any big imperfections, especially drip lines, sanding it a bit before you apply the plastidip is good. Or you can simply sand the plastidip after.

In general, heat form then glue. I use contact glue (rubber shoe glue) and some people use superglue, etc.

I thought I'd share a few (okay, more than a few) pictures that I just uploaded to Facebook. Had the chance to grab a lot of shots of the Iron Man exhibition at STGCC this year with all the details on the toys that should come in use for anyone working on an IM costume. Might take the time to...

Thought I'd update with a quick photo of what the back of the costume looks like. The lights are a little messed up in this shot though, but it's still my favourite. After this, I remade the back light and added weathering but I don't have any of what it looks like when worn yet. Soon. :x

Wait a sec, you work for/with Red 5? Holy crap that's awesome. Wanted to make an FF costume some time back but scrapped the plan to focus on other stuff.

Damn, dude. I've said it before but awesome work. I'm not saying this just because there's an adorable dog in the background, too. =P Loving the gold on the bracer btw, what is it?

DotA 2 foam files would be pretty awesome. :x Can't wait for them to release the DotA 2 SDK.

@Xen: Didn't want to have to ask for help but ended up being super distracted and stressed out by school. >.< ... And what's that about my weird face? >.> Blah, anyway, I'll let you know when I want to work on the lights... need to finish my next costume and update the paint job first...

I'm on the Starcraft Global Invasion album on Facebook, woot! Singapore represent. You'll have to excuse me for being excited, it's my first full suit of armour so this is a pretty new thing for me. >.< Managed to scrounge up some WIP pictures so here goes. Noting that the suit was entirely...

@Ruddigger and @J326: Thanks for the compliments, I had help though. So I'm not sure if it counts? All I know was that it was a blast working on a costume with everyone, though I don't feel like repeating that rush! ... but know I'm likely to because what costumer doesn't rush costumes before an...

Updates! Took a break for about a week and then spent a couple of days upgrading my suit with a new paint job (that I still want to touch up because I love weathering and having the chance to play with my airbrush) as well as lighting! Will find more WIP pictures and either edit them in or...

@Sheol: I originally wanted to build it off a zentai suit/catsuit. However, the sizing for it made it difficult to move in so I ended up sewing two pieces of compression wear together and adding a zipper. It's basically the same thing either way. After that, added pieces of black foam. I'm...

First costume post on this forum and it's for my most ambitious costume yet. Anyone familiar with Starcraft 2 should know of Nova, who's also the protagonist of the cancelled Starcraft Ghost. So with the HotS launch impending, I decided to make the costume with some help from friends (as a...

Nice clean work as usual, Xen. :x Now I'm tempted to make one of my own.

Not to be nitpicky here but actually, the button isn't the Chinese word for Lion. It's the one for Tiger.
