Getting ready for Opening Night.

[guidwi]

and

My mannequin head got misplaced, so forgive the subject, I think Jason did just fine. LOL

Just finished the pep, gonna use that as the base to make a movie quality prop for the premiere.
I've got some cool new techniques to use on this, I'll post updates as they happen.

Were'd you get the pep files for it? Was it from Herogear? If it is when the hell did he put the frikkin code up??

 

[Jacob]

Is it supposed to be like this, or one of the older versions?
Very cool by the way.

 

[Doom]

IT'S ABOUT TIME!

Lots of people have been waiting for a Ironman model or Pepakura File. I hope you can release it to satisfy all the topics that have been made about it.

Looks Good Quix!

Thanks Doom!

I actually got them from Herogears thread. The pep file is password protected, but in the zip he linked he had a black in white edge only PDF. Incidently, it's scaled perfectly if you wear a 7 1/2 or higher fitted ball cap.

I'm 6'3 and about 220lbs, and it fits beautifully.

I'm probably gonna get razzed for this, but I'm an old school guy. While I'm confident I'm going to enjoy the new movie,
nothing compares to the look of Marvels Ironman. So...While I'm going to go with a more subdued movie version color scheme....I'm going to stay true to the comic style helm in its details.

The mustard yellow and neon red just wouldn't transition well to real life. LOL

looking good...im doing the movie version

 

[AoBfrost]

Send me the model, I might try this with the smooth setting on pepakura, I'm making a helmet from pep, and the helmet isnt even done yet it looks smooth like it was bondo'd.

Ironman Pep

**note** Do not ask about the password on the pep file. I used the B_W_Outline.pdf

It's properly scaled as I said for about a 7 1/2 fitted hat or larger sized head, and setup for Letter Cardstock, portrait.

Enjoy.

 

[optimusaint]

i already have a helmet, but im definitely using this for the rest of the armor

 

[Grunty5]

It looks like a cat!

 

[optimusaint]

It looks like a cat!

thats because its two seperate pieces, one that is painted gold and another that is red. he doesnt have them permanently attached to each other yet. its just a few bits of tape holding it. thats why theres a gap by the mouth and another on the forehead.

 

[AoBfrost]

I think tinted sunglasses from the goodwill will make good eye holes for this, I found orange iridium tinted glasses for 2 dollars brand new made in taiwan.

I've got an even better idea. And in primary testing, it's proving as quite a viable result.
Also, I don't plan on permanently attaching the three pieces to one another.
They will attach via powerful magnets. It's gonna be sweet.

Glassing hopefully this weekend. It's either been raining or too damn cold around these parts lately.
