Starx - Mark 3 Build

[Starx]

SupermanExtreme1 - Trust me. there is no way im taking any chances on this. I want it to come out awesome. And besides, i have all of you guys to support me on this whole thing. So im sure to keep learning new tricks here and there.



Bamabat - Yup. I understood your tutorial. You explained it very well. Thanks again if i didnt thank you enough on it!! I will definitely be working on it sometime in the near future (ive set time for it not this weekend but the one after. So one entire day to make it)

I really can't wait to see this get done your suit is going to smoke any I have seen and searching the web for a great suit works wonderfully with dial up so I have been looking at peoples suits for ever, Graet work !!!!!

 

[Starx]

Vampyredh - I appreciate that! However, i dont think there is any way my design will ever trump TMP's skills...sigh

 

[Vampyredh]

well I happen to disagree with all the detail your putting in yor going to need little smoothing and even less finish work, So if anything you will be equals if not better.

 

[Decept217]

Simply amazing!

 

[Starx]

Not much of an update for now. But i did play around with my torso support and add some pieces to it. For now, my next plan is to finish the dummy in order to be able to place all the pieces together more easily. So things will be a little slow until wednesday (have that day off to buy the piping and duck tape). Sorry to keep you guys waiting on this.

how can you make that light thing for the chest? its very nice

 

[RazorFrost]

Dude, you are so gonna beat me till Halloween 2010, and probably "Outshock" . . . more poeple than me in my halo suit, gotta think the fact that yours is one of a kind. it wouldnt surprise me also if the movie ppl came to your door and say they wanna use that suit lol.

 

[Starx]

Thanks Michi. But im no where near done. I have at least two to three times as many pieces as you. Well see who gets there first.

Got a little bored today waiting for work to begin. So i wanted to show everyone how the torso support will be helping in "shaping" the armor onto the wearers body. I think it gives it that wide shoulder body builder look. What do you guys think?

This is the upper torso support (where i will be attaching the under armor in key areas to show it off once the armor is on.

And here it is with the rest of my old armor on. Again to show how it helps give the wearer that physique that iron man has. I could either cheat and do this, or i could work out until the build is done. But then i would have to keep resizing pieces. So? Comments please.

 

[Starx]

Please excuse the messy tape job.

 

[Underdogg13]

Very good, keep it up.

 

[KeyPersoNELL]

Very nice process



Keep up he Good work!

 

[Vampyredh]

man Your suit is going to be hot can't wait for you to release the files so I can give it a shot

 

[Starx]

SupermanExtreme1 - my plan is to lessen the folds in key areas not only to lessen the bondo work but also to keep it rounded where it should be. However, some parts will remain with folds in order to help keep it mechanical looking and not more towards an organic appeal...it is a suit of technology as well. Besides, I don't mind spending time on the bondo, you know I am crazy about the details. A little bondo work isn't going to scare me off...your suit is coming along very well!!!



KeyPersoNELL - thanks!!!



Vampyredh - thanks man. I can't wait to get it done either.

 

[Starx]

Oh, and my plan is to use my chect files of course. I'm only using what I have laying around for reference.

oh ok just askin cause you were wanting to use your old chest in the other post on page 8 because you didn't like resizing pieces.

 

[Starx]

SupermanExtreme1 - haha... i meant work out my body until i get myself in shape to pull of the look. Im still using my new chest design either way..lol..

 

[Starx]

Update - the back piece and the lower back piece are finished. Taped onto the torso support and its on to the next pieces. Work has me working two weeks no day off so ill be getting to this whenever im not working.

 

[Spartan 051]

so how much time do you have in this build so fair?

 

[Starx]

Five months time for getting the pep file just right. As far as hours pepping, gluing, cutting, and so on. No idea. Just trying to get done before halloween next year.
