Iron Man MK33 - Silver Centurion Arc Reactor

[pRoJectEarth7]

Hello everyone,

I was asked to make the MK33 - Silver Centurion Arc Reactor by a client and here are the results...

So it started from some reference I found on the net and some provided by the client.

I traced it via CAD to get accurate dimensions

Then designed it... the thickness of the casing is important to prevent LED hot spot

Made the parts...

Proceeded to painting and assembly...

I used gun-metal paint color for the element to resemble real metal look

Clear acrylic glass on top

NEXT.. will be installing the electronics real soon...

Keep building everyone... cheers!

That looks fantastic! The silver centurion has always been my favorite armor, it should really receive more love.

Thanks man... I'll be adding some more details into it

Digging into details on the reference photos I saw some layering which are a bit subtle but still gives the arc reactor more depth and intricacy... I tried to copy it using a thin clear acrylic and here are the results....

I cannot find a clear adhesive that will not affect the transparency of the acrylic so I just minimized the amount I put on it

Will proceed on the electronics shortly.... cheers!
