Re: EVA Foam Mark VI Iron Man Build - Partial Right Arm Paint-Up Pics! 8/26
Thanks! I will see you there.
Everyone does things a bit differently... hopefully this isn't too wordy. But this is my plan/it's already done.
Neck fastens with rare earth magnets.
Chest/back and collar piece as well as first tier of abs is one piece that slips over my head like a shirt.
Arms are forearm, elbow, and bicep with double hinge point on arms.. these slide on.
Inner ribbed wrist piece is velcro and force fits and holds the arm up in a good spot.
Gauntlets are 3d printed and just slip on.. same with fingers.
Ab section is connected with rare earth magnets and just slips on like a mid piece.. gurdle type thing. It tucks slightly under the chest/back.
Cod piece just slips on like a pair of underwear lol
Legs are comprised of shin, thigh, thigh extension and hip pod. Those just slip on and are not attached or hinge to anything else.
Boots are slipped over a pair of work boots with a decent heal to bring my 6'2" stature closer to 6'4" plus helmet adding another couple of inches so like 6'6" 6'7" when Im wearing it.
Legs stay on from vertical fit.. of it resting on boot.. etc. trust me it works, I've already done tests.
Helmet does up like others.. back plate comes off. Faceplate comes off. All held with rare earth magnets.
Hope this helps.
Under all this will be compression gear with the elbows painting gold and knees painted silver to get a real cohesive look.
Cheers!
