Well its still alot of cutting but its def less expensive and less time consuming than glassing/bondo and takes a little more creativity but I love foam. If you look at Timecons foam thread you can see how amazing it can really become in the right hands. None will ever be as great, well maybe Nick Nack Patty Wack lol. we shall see, that dudes off tha chain! Im still an amateur.Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off^ Just thought it would be fitting to say it because you don't want to piss the Hulk off either. But I can also agree, a lot of people seem to be heading to the foam path. I think its great, its easier to make, easier to move in and its not as expensive as buying so much card stock to build a whole suit. Plus you don't have to do all that cutting with the paper. IM0, Foam is better.
