need some help with ironman elbows.

[familyman]

As the title says I need help with ironmans elbows, does he have elbow pads? say like a clonetrooper or are the elbow pads fixed to either the forearm or bicep part of the armor?. Any help would be great. I am building a mark if that makes any difference.
Thanks.

I think it will depend on if the want to display your armor or wear it. Also, if you are looking to do the inside of the elbow, outside or both.

I used an accordian plunger and painted it to match the armor, but mine is for display (Link to pics below). I have heard of others getting and painting dryer hose.

Also, Starxs has a tutorial on joints that he has on Youtube.
