Hey guys. Here's a video for you to help your builds and answer some questions.

1. Starting to shape the outside of the chest now. First layer of car-body-filler applied in a moderate, yet controlled layer. I mix no more than three teaspoons of filler with a pea-sized amount of hardener at a time to prevent premature curing before I've finished working it. Three is actually pushing it.

2. The waist is fitted inside the chest to keep it's shape while the filler is applied. I'll separate the two later to finish them.

3. Already, with the first sand-back of the rough coat, a very thin re-application of filler is making it look the goods!

i've got a theory : You have still the armor of first Iron man movie xD

I hope you will have a good mobility because your helmet will touch the neck no ?

If not, I will probably cut one row down and make the top part out of foam.

1. I've found that a very light spray of colour (and I mean light), can help in the sanding process to clearly identify low-spots. The downside is that if you spray too heavy, the paint can very quickly clog your sandpaper.

2. Rough filler application continues around the left side.

3. Now getting a bit of an idea of symmetry for adjustment.

You do not say it BUT i'm sure your arc reactor is fonctionnal !!

If you do a light coat of filler primer then it won't clog as much when sanding and fill in little scratches too
Also filler primer is designed to allow for body filler to be applied on top of it.

Not satisfied with my first arc reactor, I am constructing a new one from bits and pieces of other ideas.

I destroyed it so it would not risk falling into the wrong hands.... besides, I don't want people to know I really do have a heart...

Good job with the armor so far. I am interested with the amount of mobility you will have though.
