Re: First Iron Man Pepakura Build...Question?

In case you were wondering, yes I am still working on finishing my TASM zentai costume, I'm just waiting on lenses. :unsure Anyway, I'm about to start my first pepakura Iron Man build, and I had a question: can you do pep out of cardboard, and if so, do you do it any differently?

Yes cardboard is better than card stock if you are doing the fiberglass method because it's sturdy and holds shape well. Or you can just paint the cardboard if you want to keep it simple.

Just do it the same way foam suits are done with foam templates.

Okay, thanks! One more question: how do you get the numbers to show up on the templates in Pepakura designer? Also, I think I have the designer trial; do you have to pay to keep the program?
