Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam Version)

Guys I need your help The Foam I use has low density and I have to seal it bevore I can use Plasti Dip and colour. My question is what is better Mod Podge or PVA Glue as a basecoat? I will strenghen the inner side of the suit with plastic coating but only a light coat. So what works better? And one more question wich colour I should use than ? My old paint crack if I bend it only a little bit.

Ich hab's mit Holzleim probiert. Kann aber leicht brechen, wenn er trocknet. Würde daher eher Plastidip nehmen.

Looks good! I will keep this thread sub'd and hope it goes well for the foam build! I have been wondering about making this suit also but already ploughed money into a MK6 build... :facepalm

I have used plain PVA (School Glue) and it works a treat on any density. Just apply as many coats as desired. (I have applied x2 thick coats myself).

I am using Solar Gold & Regency Red (Ford Branded) for colours. Hope that all helps. Good luck!

Today I will start with the Back Thats really an impresive suit but all the angles and little parts are hell and I only have the chest but all the details make the suit so great.

Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam Version)

Half of the back is done quite happy with the results.

Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam Version)

very clean lines. I dig it.

 

[Max5796]

Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam Version)

All these clean lines cost so much time but at the end clean edges are very important

Thank you greglr1975
