Gloves to use under armor Ironman

[jmorrone]

Hello all. Im 3d printing an ironman mk42 suit right now and I'm working on the hands. I tried to search this topic but it seems to just come up with how to make hands. What im looking for is what you are using for the actual glove underneath the armor parts. Are you all dying these or creating them in some other way. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know what a glove but I used a black full body suit. People will think you have a fetish until you put the suit on but its worth it, You can get one on Amazon for like $30

I've tried numerous things. The closest I've found is using the wire loom from Auto Zone: http://www.autozone.com/starting-ch...tre-performance-convoluted-tubing/346843_0_0/. I've tried to use Plastidip on it like a YouTube video shows ("Iron Man finger insert") but it comes out horrible. If anyone does have a better way to do it, please respond!

Check out abb eliten's gauntlet : http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=166141
He used Smooth-On's Dragon Skin 10 silicone to create the details.

Thanks, Huang! Now to figure out how to do a mold plate for the ribs. (Still trying to learn the mold/casting process.) Any suggestions?

I you don't want to do the cast silicone gloves, you could likely find a similar knit fabric to sew the gloves from. As long as the ribbing is visible between the joints, you're solid.
