So I am almost done painting. I wiped out all the auto stores Dark Cherry Metallic Dupli-Color in my town. So I have to wait till Thursday to continue painting..... Everything is looking nice. I decided not to close off the gaps, because I feel like it gives a certain look. I like it.

Here is a picture of a majority of the painted suit! Thoughts?

 

[Bogleo]

Mmm... Juicy!

 

[Casey2124]

Does anybody have any good tutorials over how to make repulsors?

 

[Casey2124]

Preferably cheap, haha.

I did build a repulsor yesterday myself. Never did any wiring and soldering before but it was pretty easy. I'm thinking of improving my method and making an easy tutorial for all the beginners out there

I think I'll do one next week. If you need it earlier: just go to your local electronic store and tell them what you wanna do. I told them "I need to power 3 LEDs with batteries and I don't know anything." They helped me out pretty good

I would like to know the material you use to shape the iron man. What is the real name of this equipment.

Hey, I use 8mm foam from Harbor Freight tools and then you can use a hair dryer to bend things like a faceplate.

 

[Casey2124]

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been on in a couple days I was camping. So I have two weeks to get everything done. Let's hope I can get it done! Got all things painted red and started gold gold. Had to stop due to rain. I don't think I will have time to make a new bucket so I will either use the one I made during December that was an incredible fast build or a plastic helmet that I got offline a while back and just try to get leds in it.

Pics please !

 

[Casey2124]

I got the sucker painted. This was a rough put together. I am having so much trouble with straps and such. Velcro doesn't seem to want to work at all.... Remember that this was a 4 week speed build. All I have left is clear coat and LEDS and straps. Thoughts?

 

[George]

Instead of velcro you could consider nylon straps with plastic buckles (I'm not familiar with the english word),you know,the ones they use for backpacks.

 

[Casey2124]

Exactly what I started using. I love it, haha. I have to wait till my store gets more in. Got the chest and back strapped together last night. Thanks, bud!

So this will be the arc I am using since I don't have to build one. Thinking about putting a piece of card stock over it or a white lid that will still glow with it.
