I got the itch to get the mk1 helmet in paint.
Black was laid first,then various tints of silver and a fine chrome.

Getting the back and chest to fit was a bit of a ball ache.
With them both being scratch built they didn't mate,so it was sand back the shiny red paint.
A bit of filler and tweaking here and there,then on with some more paint:).

the plan was to fit the ebay arc reactor intially,but it dont look quite right.

but after seeing matt n the real starks fantastic unibeam.(could do with the real stark living local to me:lol)

the thought was arc or unibeam ?

so using matts as a ref a unibeam was made,and the base of a old ashtray was molded to make a arc,what looks similar to the arc in the mk4 figure.
n i still haven't decided which to use:lol:lol

parts for unibeam,foamboard rings.

FILE0331800x600.jpg

Thanks very much omar,the unibeam was using matt great build as a ref,which i haven't ended up utilising.
The arc is just a simple build molded from the base of a ashtray,which i think works well.

How many hours do you think you spent sanding? Your work amazes me.

Thanks NastyNoah,i've not got a clue,but my fingers are shorter.


Back on track again to some degree,slow progress as things been a little hectic.
The mk6 is just about done,still needs the flaps adding.





parts building up



mk1 lid cast





Got some parts for Robosteve done,it's getting there.
















Then it slows down,due to iron mans leisure pursuits.

He took a trip to the cinema,to see the new film.
Bought a ticket.



fuelled up with popcorn and sweets.









Groupies.







Couldn't resist going 10 pin bowling.









Found another admirer.



Who gave him a cake. mmmmmm



Needing refueling onto nandos.





Ate this rogues chicken.



After all the calories, it was off for a workout so the suit still fit.










Thanks for looking folks.
