Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam). All Major parts done. Lower part finished (Legs) 13.10.1

Thank you It´s much more difficult to paint this suit compared to my old mark VI suit but it looks quite nice and I am very happy with the results

very clean, considering its foam! Good job.
Use some black weathering effect in the grooves and edges, it wil give the total thing more depth en wil blend the imperfections of foam out.
The Colors seem to be spot on.:thumbsup

JayCVenlo could you explain that a little more to me what ypu exactly mean with weathering effect and how I can apply that to my suit ?


And thank you for your comment

Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam). All Major parts done. Sealing Arms 13.10.14

I have finished the arms too. Now I have to do the main body I am really happy how it came out. Hopefully it will also look so good when it is completed

 

[Max5796]

Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam). All Major parts done. Arms finished 15.10.14

The main body is also primed now It´s coming along quite good. There are a few things I have to fix but at the moment I am really happy with the results so far.
Next up is the helmet and some coverparts and than I only have to install the lights which I also have here laying around.

This is looking awesome, man! This is probably the most proportional build I've seen for the Mk. 42. Can't wait to see it done!

Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam). All Major parts done. Main body primed 17.10.14

Thank you MiddleFinger it´s amazing to get such a good feedback from so many people Here is an small update for you. The main body is in painting stage now I will finish it today. Colours are not finished there is missing the clear coat thats why it looks different to the other parts

Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam). All Major parts done. Main body painting stage 19.10.14

But question, how do you put it on?

 

[Max5796]

Re: Iron Man Mark 42 (Foam). All Major parts done. Main body painting stage 19.10.14

I will make the cuts to make it wearable after the suit is finished

 

[Max5796]
