Iron Man 3 Mark 42 Suit

[IronAvenger]

So before Iron Man 3 hit theaters I decided I wanted to make the Mark 42 armor. This was not my first build or even my first Iron Man. The process was fairly easy, it took me about 1 1/2 months to finish this project.

That looks fantastic, IronAvenger! Great work!
What are your next plans for it? Painting?

I've been waiting for the forums to come back so that I can see what everyone else has been up to, and start learning how to create my own suits. Can't wait to see more from you!

Looks effing awesome dude! Hey how exactly did you do the lights in the eyes? I can't seem to figure out how to get it looking good

I wired up six LEDs into the lenses of the helmet, I diffused the light by sanding the inside of the lenses with 250 sandpaper.

Thanks! I keep modding this suit to make it look and fit better.
