Project *iron Man* Has Begun!

[MegaMan303]

So like many people around here I have decided to start on the construction of my iron man suit. Finished up my mkvI couple months ago so its on to something new. Im planning on completing the entire suit this summer. I started on Iron mans left arm this morning and this is what i have so far. I made a mold of my left arm and used it for fitment purposes. Let me know what you guys think.

You made your arm mold out of packing tape I see, the best way to make a cheap mannequin!

The armor looks great so far, can't wait to see it finished!

Hey man, looking very good. This will also be my next non-Star Wars related project I'll be working on. It seems like you're using the same files I'll be using; care to give any scaling info and your own height? I'll be watching this thread and good work friend.

Lostdude,
Im 5'10'' with a medium build. I scaled the shoulder bells 3.0 cm less the forearm was 2.5 cm less as well as the bicep. Hope that helps. I will be doing work on it today will keep you guys posted!
