Hey guys! So I've lurked through this forum for a couple of months and want to say thanks to Stealth for the amazing tutorials! If it wasn't for him I wouldn't be into this hobby!
I decided to follow Stealths tutorials, because Foam is pretty easy to handle.
I know War Machine has been updated for Iron Man 3 and prior to the Iron Patriot release, I had already made the chest, shoulder, and arm pieces.
So instead of scrapping my build, my Idea here is to customize the War Machine outfit, adding custom pieces to the chest and abs, as well as my own detailing.
Oh yeah, I'm also using the Iron Patriots helmet, since I think it's bad ass.
Anyways, here is what I've done so far;
The Chest:
Which I am kinda of disappointed with. I took a break (more like 4 month Hiatus) and came back, forgetting to glue from the inside out. I had glue all over the seems and on the inside.
Luckily! I invested in a heat gun, and blasted the glue, wiping it with Qtips. I did this procedure to all the rest of the parts I made before too, including the shoulder pieces, and biceps:
I also realized that there were holes and some places where I didn't like the way it looked, so I searched for a solution and found that a lot of people recommend Caulking and smudging it between the foam:
