    Hey all... I have been working on a 3D print of Ironman Mk46 armor for a while. Had a computer crash and lost all my files but thought I was OK because I’d finished the prints. Turned out I screwed up the forearms...different sizes, happened during the fitting process. I’ve tried to contact...

    Who makes the the best Black Panther costume?

    I've had really good luck with Joyce at Super Queen: https://www.facebook.com/SQcostumes/ Was looking into a Black Panther costume for my son from her but ended up going with Captain America instead. Her quality is top notch and prices are really reasonable.

    Iron Man - Armor Strapping

    Hi all... I am in the process of doing a 3D print set of Iron Man Mk46 armor (using the Do3D files). Going pretty well although sizing has been an issue...I am NOT 5'6" tall with a 28" waist! I'm at the point where I can start assembling the torso and am wondering what people typically do...

    DO3D Ironman MK3 extensive build

    Following. I'm really interested as I am in the process of printing their (DO3D) Iron Man MK46. So far the biggest tip I can give is the files are VERY small...you would need a supermodel waist to fit them! I think I have printed 2-3 suits worth of parts already as I "trial and error" my way...

    Costume Appropriateness at Shows

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I kinda land where Yrien is on this...no matter how respectful he is, there's going to be negative responses. It will be up to him, but I think maybe another character may be the best option. Will let you know what he decides.

    Costume Appropriateness at Shows

    OK...I have no experience with these shows and need opinions from those of you who are... My son (21 y/o) is a HUGE Black Panther fan. He wants me to go to the Toronto Comicon in that costume but he's Caucasian. Do you think anyone would find that inappropriate / offensive? The last thing...

    Need some advice on buying an Iron Man suit

    Suggest you check out Joyce's stuff at www.superqueen.cc. A bit more than the foam suit you're looking at but a huge step up in quality. I think her Iron man Mk46 comes in under $2,000.

    Ironman 3D Print Build...help a newbie!

    I played around with elastic straps too. It works, but not a very elegant solution...I suppose I could just "get 'er done" but wasn't sure I'd be happy with that in the long run. I just printed the hands using the existing scale. They are a pretty good fit once I have the glove on. To be...
