The making of an Iron Man costume

So I frequent a certain market here a lot. The other day I saw a guy sanding what was obviously an Iron Man helmet. When I showed interest in it, he showed me what he has been working on.

This is the body of the costume. The man owns a toy shop and sells other things like Rubix cubes.

Putting the head on.

The costume is made out of foam.

The hands are put together with foam and elastic.

Once the foam is put together, bond-o (or something similar) is placed over and can be sanded down .

I will post more pictures as he makes further progress.
