Ever since I saw Iron Man the movie I loved it and always wanted to make my own costume, so I did.
I bought cardboard and metallic paint and some led lights. I really did put my time on everything to make it looked like the real thing. I used cardboard and super glue to glue them together and then, at the end, after the mask arms and everything was finished, I painted it with metallic paint and this is what I accomplished!

I’m amazed you made this. Wow. You are very talented.

They sell iron man outfits for $75 that aren’t NEARLY that good. You should make them for people
That look’s exactly like it!!!
Yeah, you could cost post the templates somewhere, that would be sweet! My son wants to be IM for Halloween this year and you’re build would be ideal.
that is the sickest costume ever
Great costume. I admire your effort and zeal to put this suite together. It looks like you really put a lot of time and effort into it. Don’t worry about those that criticize it. There’s always going to be one.
dude i just saw your ironman costume and i thought that it was so cool that it even looked real. I cant believe that you made that out of cardboard and bits of metal then glued it all together that is awesome!

Great job man i am looking to do one for my man cave i want to do a real size replica either im or master chief
Yo! The name is Sam! You can find me on facebook i have an underground lab…..
Well…. its actually my dads old lab, (his new on is upstairs now, he syay he is working on some kind of light fragment project)…anyway
Im really into getting people to work with me to make an “Iron Man”. I’m currently making blueprints and am willing to accept 5 people who can:
-program computers, user interfaces, and calibrate voice interfaces.
-Some one who can mold thing out of titanium and iron(a welder).
-Some one who can design amazing blue prints.
-And Who has studied circuit board designing and advanced engineering to make it fly and cool weapons.
this is so sick! a quick suggestion though. i see that you are using normal card board. when i tried to make mine, i used that as a base and then hot glued the thinner, smoother cardboard on top. the kind of stuff that cereal boxes are made of. its really easy to get, and it looks much better when you paint it. really though, good job!
how did you make it out of cardboard? it is so cool!
THAT is too cool! This guy has some talent!!!
how did you make the arc and can you send me
instructions my email is seanecav@yahoo.com
man i wish i can make a real iron man suit
can you send me directions on how to make it patzfan42@gmail.com thanks
anyway you can send me instructions im trying to make one to but i don’t have money and cardboard is cheap any help would be great thanks!
