This is awesome foam work, always incredible to me what can be done with it. I'm curious as to what kind of adhesive you are using to do all your gluing, I've been using hot glue with mixed results but that could very well be operator error.

Thanks! I'm using contact cement. I'm just using DAP although everyone recommends Barge. The DAP works fine.

I used hot glue exclusively on my Brainiac foam build and found it almost impossible to get really good seams with it, the contact cement makes seaming .... well seamless. Hot glue is still good for reinforcing the back of seams and for flat on flat applications though.

Awesome I actually have a can of DAP I used to make some foam weapons no idea why I didn't think of that, duh haha.

I love the lifts they are really inconspicuous, I could see a similar design working great for Big Daddy build.

I've worked some more on finishing up the boots and belt and did a full costume test fitting. Couple of things to adjust, but I'm happy with it so far.

Nice! The cape really adds to it. Looking forward to seeing it painted.

Thanks! I'll do a little more detail and cleanup work and probably seal it next week for painting.
