Ladies can be Iron Man too (everything but the shoulders, pg 35)
Re: Ladies can be Iron Man too (kinda pic heavy)
I wonder - How can I get those Pepakura files? I have looked all over the place for them and apparently I keep missing them! (then again, it may be not ALL over the place, if I haven´t found them).
Can anyone either send them via e-mail to me or PM me where to get them?
Thanks a bunch and keep up the amazing work, Laamberry!

You are really just too nice <3 Really sorry to hear you were in the hospital though, I hope it wasn't anything serious!
Sent you a PM!
Does anyone have any advice on the best way to go about the grooves on the helmet? ;] thanks in advance

Re: Ladies can be Iron Man too (kinda pic heavy)
Draw the grooves in pencil to get them aligned correctly, then using a needle file or a sharp tool, scrape a small pilot groove. Then either work it with a needle file OR take a dremel with an appropriate tool and SLOWLY follow your pilot groove.
...then get into the groove and shake your groove thing (Please don't post pictures or videos of that or we might have a few more pages telling you how much we enjoyed that
)

Hahaaa I learnt my lesson the first time around with pics ;] not that I minded the flattery, who would? Thanks for the tips, they'll help!
and for those wondering how the helmet is going, it's getting there slowly
and I bet you're all jealous of my awesome birthday cake, huh?

I wouldn't mind some flattery, but something tells me the average user here isn't going to give me any. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to make due without. haha
And that helmet is looking seriously awesome! This is your first pep project, right? It's awesome. I'm glad you have the patience to see this through. That's what kills most people with Pep, the paper model makes you think you're so close, when really your work is only just beginning.
Keep up the awesome work!

Beast cake, happy birthday, and nicely done with the bondo, looks good so far.

Great cake! You're 19? I'm so freakin' ancient! I thought I was old when a Marine checked in to my Company in GTMO. He was born the year I enlisted 1978.
Are you going with standard colors or will you use something else? Great work!

Re: Ladies can be Iron Man too (kinda pic heavy)
Haha, It might actually be too much, my instincts are telling me to ask you to marry me (Don't worry, I'm only 23 haha). But I should be able to fight that instinct long enough to see how awesomely this project comes out.
How did you do the details around the chin? It doesn't seem like you need our help with detailing at all by the look of those lines, they look great.

Re: Ladies can be Iron Man too (kinda pic heavy)
It was actually fairly tedious and they still need a good bit of clean-up.See, my hands are a bit too small to hold the dremel properly so my drilling was too shaky. So I filled the cuts with bondo and stuck a piece of sheet plastic in the groove. Once the bondo cures you just pop the plastic out and voila! a perfect line is left there in it's stead :]

Hahaha, yea, I know what you mean, if I look back at pictures of my pepakura projects on the 405th, I feel like it was years and years ago.

...Alright but we have to wear complete Iron Man suits (minus helmets) instead of the normal tux and gown. If that's okay with you, consider us E-gaged. haha

Re: Ladies can be Iron Man too (kinda pic heavy)
From having you as a YouTube stalker to future Iron Man-Armored wife all in the same night, I'd say my night is fairly complete as well.
And, WarMachine, call me old fashioned but the lady should be in charge of the planning, so be nice to her and maybe she'll include you on the guest list.
...This may be the most ridiculous tangent to come of this entire thread...and that's saying a lot.
