Iron Man Heavy Artillery Armor

[CardBoard King]

I started Making costumes back in high school. Over the years my skills grew. I love Iron Man he is my favorite comic book hero. My goal is to full my garage with Iron Man armors. All different types. Like my own Starks work room. I started on The Iron Man Heavy Artillery Armor in December of 2008. The Heavy Artillery Armor fits my body type very well. Im a big guy, and I really want to make a Iron Man Costume for my self, but I know that the Mark 3 suit wont look right on me due to my size. I found a Iron Man toy at Target. I just had to buy it. It was the Heavy Artillery Armor. The suit looks so cool. I felt like it would make the perfect Iron Man suit for me. So I started to make it into a costume.

I finish The Iron Man costume a few days b4 San Diego Comic Con. All that Hard work, Money, and Time I put in the costume was worth the one day of revealing it to the world

Welcome to The RPF. Have you thought about getting the eyes to light up too? Here's a video I found off of YouTube, and I think there are others here who can help if you decide to do it.

At the moment I can only use Cardboard. Silicone rubber and Plastic resin cost too much. Me and My wife just broth home a new born baby, so money is kinda tight right now.

Whats the weight of the suit?

Its really not heavy. Maybe an extra 30lb. Or maybe since Im a big guy I dont feel the weight. But I know when I add the weapons I know I'll feel it
