Iron Man Pepakura pieces (HELP)

Ok, I want to try and make an Ironman suit out of the pepakura method.
However I have all the pieces cut, folded and bondo covered except for the thighs, and the boots. I just keep messing them up when I start to sculpt the details in the bondo. Is there anyone here that can make me the thighs and boots? Please PM me if you can.
 
a friend of mine sent them to me already printed, he got them from the 405th I think. I don't have the pepakura program on my computer.
 
Have you thought of forgetting the bondo . . so work intensive and not to mention messy!!? I've just used chavant NSP over the pep helmet and put all the detail in that!! all you need is some decent clay modelling tools and a bit of patience!! if you wan
na see how i did it I'm putting some movies and pics on Utube this week or I can email you some pics if you give me your Email details! regards ABS
 
I am on my first pep build, too. I am having trouble with the eyes. I plan to wear the helmet, so I don't need the eyes filled in, but I can't figure out how to put it together without the eyes. I know this isn't my thread, but I would be gratefull for some help.:confused
 
Build it with the eyes enclosed. When you do glass as bondo, cut out the eyes. Then you can add lenses, install LEDs in the corners and the lenses will defuse the light and you can still see. These are things I've read and no first hand knowledge. I am building a helmet right now (foam method) and not that far. Master crafters, please correct me if I'm wrong. Good luck. I'd love to see pics!
 
Thanks for the advice. I will use it. I will post some pics of it just as soon as I can figure out how to. I am not a computer nerd, and this site seems tailored for people who could re-program a T-1000. :) I would love to see some pics of your build, too.

PS- I previewed my post and, apparently, I posted a thumb of my face-plate. I have done way more than that, and will post pics of it soon. If you tell me how, it will happen quicker. :)

BA-ZINGA!!! I am so proud of myself! I figured out how to copy an image URL... with some help from my little friend, Mrs. Cadeus. :)


MORE TO COME_______________ I am having a blast with this. Pepakura is awesome!
