Iron-Man Mk35 "RED SNAPPER" Foam Build [98%]

[ironmaided]

After months of absence. . .and some issues need to take care of, not to mention some commission works needed to be finished (ALOT OF MARK 43's)

I'm back with something big. . .

Just wanted to share my current project. Not mine though, a friend just asked me to make this.

So far I had the chest and abs done, minus the mechanical details. Gonna add them when the suit's base is finished. I'm using the Low-Poly IM3 File for this. The same way I built my Heartbreaker.

Thanks for viewing.

Got some minor updates from last week, I'm currently painting the suit so no progress on that,

So far here's the raw foam shot of the shoulders, chest, abs and the thighs, with out the details,

and here's the shoulders, chest and ab area with those pipe details, a little movie inaccurate but it is game accurate, since its based on the low poly 3D model from IM3 Game

More updates soon, so busy with these guys again. . .

Got the upper torso painted. Still waiting for the silver base coat on the other parts to dry, but so far here's what I've got.

Spectacular work! What are you finishing it with?

Spectacular work! What are you finishing it with?

Thanks! Epoxy Primer/Resin to seal the foam, and then regular metallic paints for the red and silver parts, and gun metal grey colors (from Tamiya) for the mechanical parts.

Update, because of some local thunder storms in my area, I haven't finished curing the pain the other parts of the suit, so so far here's what I've got dried today.

Torso done :thumbsup

Will post other updates tomorrow :thumbsup

Thanks!

And here's Snappy right now, standing in its full glory, still need to install the lights on the eyes, RT and the claws, really the largest and the bulkiest Iron-Man I've ever built, even bulkier than my Iron-Man Mark 25 "Striker" :thumbsup

Thanks for the views guys!
