IM3 Arc Reactor (Basic, 2-in-1, and now 4-in-1) - COPIES WERE MADE!!!

Re: Ironman 3 Arc Reactor (99% Movie Accurate Look)

Not the same pattern. I'm eagerly awaiting the movie on blu-ray to get a better look at it. It's definitely a larger grid, I'm just not sure the exact shape yet. Might need to go see the movie again.

Oh dont be too hard on yourself... I just hope Marvel make an interview with the prop master of Ironman3 showing everyone how the new RT looks like and some close-up on details, just like what they did on Ironman2 when they interview Russell Bobbitt (prop master)... :thumbsup;)
 
Re: Ironman 3 Arc Reactor (99% Movie Accurate Look)

It's just a matter of getting the design right when I give it to my laser cutting guy. He's cutting all the other parts for me as well, so the additional cost isn't much if I order them at the same time. Ordering later though is slightly more.

There's good shots of the surface detail in the Art of IM3 book as well, in case one of you guys want to scan it.

Re: IM3 Arc Reactor (99% Movie Accurate Look) UPGRADED!!!... Now convertible to IM2

Hi everyone,

I made an upgrade on my IM3 version arc reactor... now it can be convertible to IM2 version... making it 2-in-1... :thumbsup;)

Below photo is the screen caps of the IM2 movie version Arc reactor.
attachment.php

That will be our reference.


So from the above photo I made the following upgrades:
1) Electronic circuit now have center light
2) Ironman2 conversion disc
3) Now uses 3 conductor cable (no messy wires)

This is our Ironman3 version arc reactor
attachment.php


Upgraded version have 2 light settings... Push the switch once and this is the light setup (IM3 style)
attachment.php


Push the switch again and this is the light setup (with center light for IM2 style). All you need to do is insert the IM2 conversion disc
attachment.php


Just like this...
attachment.php


Now this is the IM2 conversion disc
attachment.php



attachment.php

IM3 version arc reactor + IM2 conversion disc = (below photo)
attachment.php

IM2 conversion disc installed on IM3 version arc reactor
attachment.php


I used 3-conductor cable (it would be messy if I used 3 separate wires for the power supply)
attachment.php


And here is how it looks with the lights ON

Re: IM3 Arc Reactor (Basic, 2-in-1, and now 4-in-1)

Hi everyone... I made another improvement on our arc reactor... added some more details and made it 4-in-1...

I chamfered all the edges of the casing cover and put 6 screw holes to look more like the movie arc reactor.
attachment.php

Also the triangle corners were changed...

And here is our 2-in-1 (IM2 and IM3 version arc reactor)
attachment.php

IM3 version arc reactor and the IM2 version 4 conversion disc

And NOW behold... our 4-in-1 arc reactor...:D
attachment.php

(added a new casing cover and 2 more conversion disc) Now you can have the following arc reactor version:
1) IM3 movie version arc reactor
2) IM version 4 (triangular)
3) IM version 3 (the one shown with poisoned veins on Tony's chest)
4) IM version 1 (cave version)

Our velcro/suspender mounting system
attachment.php


Here is how it works... Below photo is just to illustrate how it should be wear but in actual it should be wear under the shirt... ;)
attachment.php

Sorry for the out-of-shape body... :p

And here are the 4 arc reactor conversion... The main intention is to have an accurate-looking arc reactor under the shirt (referring to the light effects)

two questions: 1) are you gonna make the arc reactors for sale?
2) where did you get the falke compression shirt from (I've searched the web for ages but haven't found one :cry)

great work, though!

NOW USING NEW BATTERY PACK (Using AA Batteries)

UPGRADED BATTERY PACK (Using Cellphone battery) ALSO AVAILABLE


Hi Everyone

I revised the design of my arc reactors and the focus of revision was on the battery pack.
The previous battery pack I used was no longer available so I changed it to battery pack that uses AA Batteries.

Re: Ironman 3 Arc Reactor (99% Movie Accurate Look)

It's always under his shirt for pretty much the whole movie. You'll only ever see it (albeit briefly) at the end when...
...he has the unit and the piece of shrapnel lodged near his heart surgically removed, and a bit more clearly when he chucks the thing into the ocean while standing on the cliff upon the remains of his Malibu home.

Personally, I always thought it looked exactly like the Iron Man 2 Arc Reactor Prop from Museum Replicas (when not turned on)...

It's also seen in the deleted scene where Tony...

has to save the life of Harley's bully with it and when Harley has to save Tony's life with it.
