Taim iarann fear - Irish Iron man Costume Build

[MunkayMagic]

The title actually means 'I Am Iron Man' in gaelic...

Anywho onto my costume....Basically been lookin through these awesome forums for ages now and finally decided to post.

So as i love the Iron Patriot costume i have decided to use it as the base for my costume. With a few adjustments..

As i am irish i wanted to go for an Irish theme and have it ready by St. Paddy's Day :confused Bein that this is my first build it is a very big ask i think lol

As i have researched tirelessly the best way to go about it... i have started a pepakura helmet Sharkhead HD... super hard for first pep lol

I have bought some foam that i am goin to start the chest with have actually started but just cut templates lol

But i am also wondering if there is anyone who would like to pioneer the irish iron man in pepakura :love

This is the way i want to go with the suit...its clean and fairly simplistic compared to the movie suit. Dodgy photo manip lol, havent used photoshop since i was doing signatures and messing with it when i was 16...

Anyone with any spare time/3d skills fancy a crack at this?? :confused

And Hello to everyone on these awesome forums :love [First post]

Thanks for reading

Also know halfords have them online, they don't have them in store because its winter. this is link to the halfords for the south Halfords Ireland | Halfords Camping Mat

Inspiring! You make me think of some switch out costomizing of my mark 4 for special events. Paint job only costs about $30US. Very compelling.
