Luckily with this suit modifications or upgrades can always be done after the "finished" version is done.. Great work Sir:thumbsup

This would be so far out of this world with working back & calf flaps, hip pods and shoulder/forearm rocket launchers

Today I cut out all the parts for Iron Man's biceps ready for folding and welding.


I've also cut and flattened all the parts for the remaining thigh, (not pictured).


My hands are covered in blisters from the aviation snips so I'll have to give cutting a rest for a couple of days while they heal.

Also got everything done on both gauntlets including a PVC ring glued in and ground down to just proud of the palm surface. These will be fitted over cotton gloves then the whole shebang painted with a thin layer of plastidip to seal it, followed by a nice thick dunk in the stuff to lock it all in together.

Bicep parts shaped ready to weld.

Have you ever looked at your work and thought "Hm... Maybe I'm too ****ing awesome for this world"?

There are some builds on the RPF that are just in another league. Most are cars - Dullam's tumbler, Gary's Delorean - but this rates right up there. It's really impressive to see anyone keep up with a project, and for you to make such progress on something of this scope so quickly is astonishing. You should really be proud of this build!

@ReVolt I give you this wisdom.... the seven P's. "Prior preparation and planning prevents **** poor performance."

Man, this is what Tony Stark would build if he was prisoner in a cave! Every time I see the welds, the discoloration of the metal, I'm still in the "Don't paint it" school of thought

LOL! I may have use for you son.

The final pieces cut out for the Iron Man suit. Forearm and elbow armour.


Once these are done, it's time to start modifying it all to wear!
