Hey all,
I'm newly registered but I've been lurking around for a while. Was hoping to get my Ironman suit done for this Halloween, but I've treaded into deeper water and I've become somewhat discouraged due to what I consider setbacks.
(I dont know if these pictures will show.. As I'm linking from facebook)
Question 1:
My first attempt using rondo, hoping to increase the chest's strength; has one layer of resin on the outside and one of fiberglass on inside; then checking about an hour after applying, and its still shiny.. So, what do I do if I didn't add enough hardener to the rondo mix?
Now this really makes me sad, this was done before the rondoing.. In hopes of making my helmet look all pro with the rounded face and whatnot without actually using a hi-def pep model. Never using bondo before, I guess I paniced when it started drying super fast and ended up looking like this:
After a bit of sanding its still not how I would like it:
Question 2:
How.. do I fix this?
Sweet now for progress pictures that dont make me feel so dissapointed!
No idea how these shoulder bells ended up different sizes:
While its too dark to be in the garage, I'm working on finishing up the Neck/shoulders, staring at the ab plates that I cant bend in and trying to figure out how I'm going to do the crotch plate.
Thanks for looking.
