WAR MACHINE COSTUME (IRON MAN 2) MOVIE ARMOR - WIP

Right and Left Thighs...Check!

I have to make some serious custom supports before strengthening them though. They are wobbly at the moment.

Shins next..

I was kinda lazy and didn't start working on the Shins until a lot later that I wanted so I got only one shin done. :(

I made some modifications and custom cutting and gluing after it was built because I usually do that to pepped parts to fine tune them for comfort that way I dont have to do it when its strengthened in plastic.

I also shortened the knee cap area as I felt it was way to tall and it was overlapping the thigh too much and cut it to where it joined the bottom of the thigh opening slot made for the kneecap nicely.

It does fit along with the thigh,

Heres how they look joined together

Very awesome dude! I haven't done a pep build yet but you have have inspired me to try. Looks great and very clean. What do you do after all the paper parts are put together?

managed to get the other shin done and both boot covers done

Juice hasn't completed boot covers but I dont really see much difference in look from the Mark III so I'm gonna just use the Callmemilo bootcovers as they are good enough for me

Heres just a shot of the left leg all together.

Thanks for the video. Now I see the fiberglass goes on the inside, was wondering about that. Oh, and in the video, that paper respirator is good for dust, not so much the fumes. You'll want a catridge respirator to soak up those.
 
Stealth,
Looking AWESOME!!!
Would you care to share your height and the scale you used in PEP?
I am on the fence between War Machine and a Halo MC of some kind.

I'm 5'6 but my suit could look better on someone 5'9 I think with a slim build

my scale was 1.8

and yes PLEASE USE A RESPIRATOR WHEN USING FIBERGLASS RESIN
 
hey guys I just made a little video update for fun. I was bored. I have everything that was available pepped now and now I have to resin is over the weekend. Then I can do a full Test fit once all the parts are strengthened. I'm a nerd and cant wait:)

Wicked stuff! Say... I'm not 'quite' as far along in building mine and I'm 5'8" and of slim build, so I'd wear it for you. =P
 
Looking sweet Stealth :) I'm part way through my one, shins thighs back and chest left to cut...Peppin all parts first before I resin.. Thinking of using jesmonite on this one instead of fibreglass resin..
