Ironman MK6 EVA build

First time build using Robo files. I did increase the sizes by 10% but found them to be waaay too big. So went with the standard files sizes and I must be the right size (5'8) to fit into the everything. Chest is a tad bigger than expected but I'll see what happens when I assemble it all!

EVA Foam (LV45 York Gym Mats from Argos) also some rolls of thinner 5mm Camping Mats (Amazon)

Going for the PVA school glue seal and then Plastidip. Bondo to fill any bad lines and general sand etc. Then opted for Solar Gold and Regency Red (Ford Branded).

Hope you like my progress... Next the Arms! To be continued... :)

Ok so I added Ipson 40 to the helmet and I am waiting for it to dry so I can then sand and then fine fill. Prime etc. Hopefully tomorrow!

I'll try to up some pics also of before and after. :)
 
Forum rules pointed me this way, but sure wherever this should be I am easy... Thanks DV I will get some more pics up soon.... :)

Deciding to re-sand the whole helmet or not? As it is not as smooth as desired. I am going to try some black marker detailing first, if that makes it look any better I will scrap the re-sand idea. Hopefully have some Hi-def pics up soon!
 
Happy New Year folks. Not had much time over last few months, I am looking at finishing the chest/back piece next... :)
