hi there,

thought I would sho my suit, was totally confussed for most of the process, rushed it ( 3 weeks) and did an ok jobs,
I didn't really use a particular pep file, used shark beetles helmet, robo 3687 files, they were luckily on A4 already mixed and matched really, colour was wrong, but that's all I could afford. I used roll mat ( army camping mat 10mm) was ok. I didn't scale anything as I just hit the ground running. prob did the worng way? I printed pep, marked on foam, cut and build, I didn't build a paper one first.
I wore it for a big party at work, I won first prize lol, and so many ppl wanted there pics with me so I guess that worked out ok. yes the abs are upside down, I did this as I found it more comfy, I know I a mad man for doing that,
had a bog drama re paint, I PVA glued it, about 5 coats watered down and 2 coats pure. few coats primer, red and gold and laquer.
It peeled like a tomato eventually and kinda put a downa on it,

that said I have watched xrobots vids, seen hasbros builds and wanna make iron patriot.

anywasy that's me, I am uk based and would appriecated a little feedback and critique?

happy building, I love this!!

I'm really glad you posted this. I've been wanting to buy the same foam you did, but didn't know how it look. XD now I feel confident! Your suit looks really good!!! And it's amazing it fits so well without you sizing it.

What happened to the last ab at the bottom? Oh I see now, your abs are upside down.
