Iron Man 2 MK5 Suitcase Foam Build

in the youtube link he said: i made it in 2 weeks
2 weeks my ass, that can only be true if he worked on it 2 weeks without sleeping at all

Not sure, but I think this guy "Anthonyle247" actually made a job out of prop building. I'm not 100% sure but I think he gets payed to make costumes. He's kind of a veteran.
I think his helmet is great but your foam build is going to blow the rest of his suit out of the water

LOL, I thought exactly the same thing.

He did make it in 2 weeks, but he already had the pattern from the one that took over a year to make.

[drack]

Ah in that case, 2 weeks, what took him so long?

[drack]

Here it is

All made but now I am gonna head down stairs and start learning how to do finer detailing with the soldering iron. I can not mess that bit up or its almost start again.........

The helmet looks amazing!

Here is the helmet once I burnt the detailing in. I must admit I photoshoped the drawn on guide lines off because they looked kinda like the burned in lines and wanted to show what it will look like once painted.

Seconded. You just blew everything I've ever built right out of the water, that helmet is so ... PERFECT

I would LOVE that but early days yet. I have a track record of making suits half way then starting new ones so......I am how ever gonna finish this one cause it's so fun to build. I have got my electronics guy on the case for the lighting now too. Hopefully the top half of my under suit will turn up next week as it's a week overdue already. On Tuesday I will start paint tests. Found chrome in a can. Really hoping it doesn't crack when flexed cause will look SAWEET for the metallic parts.
