Iron Man Mark 5 FOAM WIP [updated Files!]- FINISHED Suit on pg 5!

Re: Iron Man Mark 5 FOAM WIP + Unfolded Files!

just some $4 gloves from walmart, the glue adheres just fine and plasti dip+primer will make it look solid before painting.

I'm going to post a detailed tutorial thread for it in a week or so with some edited pep files.

Looks GORGEOUS. One piece of advice though, that I think you should really go through with! .. Before spraying a finishing clear coat, I really believe you should give it a black wash. Especiallyyyyyyyyy where the silver is.

whats a black wash?
 
Re: Iron Man Mark 5 FOAM WIP [updated Files!]- Painted Suit on pg 4!

i think a black wash is like a paint coat but very very diluated. to give a better effect to your silver parts. Maybe you can also try the dry brush technic

not much time but find it :

Remember the aim is to make your silver color more realistic

Great work! Thank you for inspiring to get my set of armor finished. Dont really have access to getting the pep files done, so Im going to be freehanding this one. But, I think it is doable. Keep up with the many awesome pics, they are helping!

what do you mean you don't have access to the pep files?
 
Re: Iron Man Mark 5 FOAM WIP [updated Files!]- Painted Suit on pg 4!

Little access to a computer and no access to Pepakura right now. Also no place to print out the files, either. Kind of sucks, but, got to work with what you got. So just looking at every ref pic there is out there, hah.

That's too bad man! I think you should hang on until you do. Free handing it is tough.
 
Re: Iron Man Mark 5 FOAM WIP [updated Files!]- Painted Suit on pg 4!

I'm impatient when I want to build things. I think that can be a bad thing, hah. Well, I THINK I can maybe do the Mark V, just because of the way it is set up and everything. Well, except for the helmet maybe. I started with the gloves, and it went all right, need to work on the technique. I'm starting with the wrist and arms next, so, hah, lets see how that goes. I would love to do the Heartbreaker, but yeah, going to wait on that one because Im pretty sure Im going to need pep. Either way, gives me something to work on while I am waiting.
