OK guys i have a quick up date just been playing around with a Little sound module i found on Ebay really cheap from Ebay 10s 10 Sec Sound Voice Recordable Module Chip for Card | eBay £1.68 inc postage bargain
anyway i recorded the repulsor sound on it from my PC cut off the button and added a tilt switch also a bargain from Ebay here eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace £3.83 for 10 inc postage I'm going to use one of these for the light on the glove so it works the same way .
so Ive fixed it all together roughly as i still need to paint to see how it works see what you think

Hey,
Awesome work, very inspirational !!
I'm in the UK also and looking for some foam... I'm looking at camping foam mats, something like this... 180cms EVA CAMPING HIKING FOAM SLEEPING MAT MATTRESS TENT CARAVAN SLEEPOVERS | eBay
But is says "Non-absorbent mat", would this be a problem ? It seems all camping/yoga mats are Non-absorbent.
Cheers
Adam

I'd imagine by using a heat gun? However, I am wondering the same question...
Also require scaling advise...
I am 6ft 1", 15st, 32" waist & 42" chest. Will the original scaling work?

Re: My Ironman Mark 6 Foam Build update 27/4/2012 helmet paint complete
Hi guys its been a while i know but just a quick update i had some spare time over the last couple of days so thought i would try and finish my helmet, Ive weathered it because i don't think you can get a new look using foam, I'm quite happy how its turned out just need to get my butt moving on the rest of the suit lol, Anyway see what you think.

heat gun normally does the trick but sometimes on certain pieces the natural curve helps the build you just need to work out which pieces need to curve which way
I'm 6' and used original scale i just added extra pieces on the abs to get my belly in lol oh and plus 10% on helmet

OK looking at the pics i didn't like the weathering i thing there was too much so I've toned it down a bit and finished the neck seal as well

Nice build mate I'm starting my own suit in foam, it's amazing how quickly it comes together
I've tried 3 times to make a card stock/fibreglass/bondo helm and botched it.
I'm working with 12mm Eva foam so it's definitely too thick for a helm, but I have some 6mm on its way so I might try a foam helm.
The only critique I'd make is that the nose bridge (for lack of a better term) seems too high, giving him something of a surprised expression. I'm not sure if that can be corrected with a heat gun and a bit more hot glue though.
Are you going to try XRobots technique with plastic coating the foam?
