Awesome job man! I can't wait to see this all done up with an awesome paint job. What are the hinges done up with? they look shiny but I can't quite tell what they are... (its impressive that all the hinges are, well, actual hinges lol)

keep up the good work :)
 
Really a great job!! I like the texture look on the foam, I wonder if you are gonna paint or is this just a "step-stool" project for practice??

hi guys finished my build today I'm happy with it just need to PVA it not and add some colour pls excuse the white shoulders and half finished helmet as you can see Ive started the painting the helmet it still masked off and needs another coat of red but wanted to suit up in full to see what it was like

That is so beautiful! All you need now is Paul Bettany to talk to you while saving the United States!

I cant wait to see it fully painted. I do believe this deserves elite status (along as the painting goes smoothly)!

Job well done!
 
thanks for the pic!
that's a very innovative connection method especially considering the outer cover for the screw.

by the way your armor has turned out great, hopefully the paint job turns out just as well :)
 
OK guys i have a quick up date just been playing around with a Little sound module i found on Ebay really cheap from Ebay 10s 10 Sec Sound Voice Recordable Module Chip for Card | eBay £1.68 inc postage bargain

anyway i recorded the repulsor sound on it from my PC cut off the button and added a tilt switch also a bargain from Ebay here eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace £3.83 for 10 inc postage I'm going to use one of these for the light on the glove so it works the same way .

so Ive fixed it all together roughly as i still need to paint to see how it works see what you think
