Doc's foam/fiberglass work + Mark 42 painted pieces

[rangemaster]

Re: Doc's foam work + The last foam painting method you will ever need.

amazing work guys. really impressed by the armors. can't believe foam can look this good. can we have the "current/ up to date" order of operations for coating the foam? somewhere back the liquid tape stuff came into play, where does it fit in with the rest of the process? does it replace, exclude any of the other materials?

In the spirit of this thread, I have to share the most amazing glue I'm now using to glue my suits together. It's Weldwood by DAP. Pics are of the bottle and a couple pieces of the new Iron Patriot MK 4 I'm building.

Base, does that glue require application on both sides to be joined and also does it need dry time before you bond it mate?.....clean work as always on the Patriot armor, looking forward to some paint on that

Hey, don't want to clutter up Doc's thread here, so head over to my thread (link in my signature) and I'll get you tips on what I'm doing as well as the new MK 4 Patriot paint job (technique ala DocHoliday78!)

As for the glue method, it's simple. Put glue on both surfaces, wait 15 minutes, the press together. Make sure it's lined up right or else you're cutting new pieces and trying again!

(GREAT helmet on the MK 42 Doc!)

MK XLII helmet looks great so far. Is this another free hand like the gloves, or is this from someone's files?

Hi Doc, how long do you typically wait after the last step of your painting technique to start handling and wearing the armor.
