Iron Man Mark VI (foam)

[Sever]

Hello everyone.
First I want to excuse for my bad english. Its being a long time since I have practise.
My name is Viktor. I am from Ukraine. I have being watching different peoples threats about prop making. Even started something, but have finished.
Not so long ago I have watched Stealth tutorials about foam method of making armore and decided to try. Thanke you Stealth for inspiring me. This threat will show you my progress.
First thing that I have done was the chest piece.
Sorry for the low quality. Its my phone camera.

The result pleased me very much, so i continued. Next was the right arm.

Looks very good, keep it up.

Here are the photos of the chest plate with both arms and shoulders.

Then I made the cod piece and conected abs. I tried to make it as flexible as posible. You can see a lot of velcro inside.

Here are the photos of the test fit.

After that I decided that for now i gona make foam helmet. Maybe in future i will the normal hard iron man helmet. But it will be in future.

For know i have painted the chest, shoulders and helmet.
I painted it with Plasti dip and primer.

Nice Man! The helmet looks good.....Usually the foam IM helmets don't look all that great, but you did a great job!

[Kevin Gossett]

This is coming along nicely!

 

[Sever]

Thank you! But i am worried about lines, where foam conects. Especially on the helmet. I don't know if i can hide them behind paint and weathering. I am searching for a way to hide them.

Awesome work.

What thickness foam is the helmet made out of ?

Foam thickness is 8 mm. And the cheek area made of two layers of 2 mm foam.

Great build, and very clean.

There is a post somewhere about making seemless lines on foam builds. I'll see if I can find it.

The scale looks superb on this! Great job. There are many that just look too bulky when worn, like an un-tailored suit.
