As i begin to finish up my Iron man mark 4 suit i have been thinking of what to do for my next main costume build. A few months ago i started a Hulk suit that i never got to finish.
My new aim is to redo the suit using various pepakura foam files to create a plain base that i can then cover with a "skin".
Although this will start as a hulk build, i want to try to achieve a re-usable costume that i can modify to create other characters.
With the new Avengers movie coming in may (April here in Australia) i wanted to start with the hulk, but as Fantastic four is coming out in August i want to be able to adapt My costume to the Thing. I hope to repeat this with other characters e.g Thanos,Venom,Abombination etc
My method for doing this will be to create various skins for the characters that can easily attach and detach as i choose.
The Pepakura files i will be using are the classic iron man suit files (created by EyeofSauron unfolded by Jfcustom).
The files will be scaled up to best suit the proportions of the hulk (basically a big muscly man)
This is a quick mock-up of the basic shape i want to achieve
I used a 3d model of Thanos as a guide (credit to original artist)
some of the parts may vary from character to character such as hands, feet and heads
I'm really looking forward to starting this build
Keep in mind this build may not start straight away as i still have to finish my iron man suit
Any questions feel free to ask!

(scroll until you find classic iron man)
(Thank you to hapslappy, Override and biopredator for inspiring me to build this suit!)
update
I spent a few hours devising a list of characters that can probably be made using this method
