Hi guys started work on my ironman foam build tonight ,Ive made helmets before using pepakura and resin and fibre glass and bondo and it just takes for ever, All that cutting folding and glueing so thought i would have ago at foam, There was some camping mat going for only £1 at work so i grabbed a dozen and got to work.

Just done shoulders and biceps so far do see what you think im happy with them.

(also i have a good tip for foam build if both sides are a mirror image just cut out the pep template for one side and just turn pattern over to get the other save time cutting and paper
smilies:D

Looking good keep it up! Just curious are you useing the mat foam for this?
yeah camping mat they was going cheap at work so i brought a load and thought i would try it the hot glue works really well on it stick it straight away and has a really stong hold
 
Attached the bicep to the tricep tonight works really well helps it stay together better and easier to wear just need to find a way to keep the shoulder on now heres some pics for update
