Ok so here is my arc reactor NOW running on ACDC power instead of a battery! :) ^Taken apart ^The custom battery holder I made for when this ran off a battery ^Here it is plugged in and beautiful! I just spliced the wires from an old power supply that is actually using 9V DC and soldered...

I used an A23 battery (12V DC) and it just touched the wires in the back. Look at the pics I posted and you can see where I twisted the reds together and the blacks together so i made a housing that let me just pop in the battery and have the twisted wires touch each end of the battery. One of...

thanks anomoly40! One of my friends is way more advanced with circuitry and electronics in general so he's going to help me put everything together haha. I tried watching a few videos to help me get an idea of what to do, but I couldn't understand any of it. Hopefully I'll have it done before...

^thanks! SO friday was the party and the arc worked PERFECTLY! except for the fact that the arc started to dim after about 2 hours, BUT we we're under a black light so it still lit up pretty well :) Unfortunately the pics we took didn't come out too well, so I just quickly put it on to show you...

Well here are the pics of the peps that I've done. some are high def and others aren't. I'm most likely going to do them all in high def.

Ok so it has been a while since I updated. Bf decided that instead of a rushed build for halloween, he wants to take time in it and do the high def pieces and wear the costumes for comic-con and halloween next year. So this year we will be Tony Stark and Pepper Potts. I might show pictures of...

Been browsing through this RIDICULOUSLY awesome thread and your build is amazing! I'm also building the same hd armor for my bf, but I noticed the shins I made are huge! I looked at your completed armor as reference for optimal sizing, and the height of it is fine, it's the back that covers the...

@ JBetts97 why is hotglue bad? does it come apart or leave bumps?

@TheRabbit Thanks! I was wondering what people did, not sure if I have enough old clothes, but maybe some towels or blankets? I tried making the hand plates but sized them horrible large so i'll have to redo it, BUT I have completed the cod piece and I'm not working on the thigh. doing the...
