Spider-Man Posted March 28, 2013 Hello Eurobricks! After starting my Malibu Mansion build I decided that Tony could use a few more suits to fill out his workshop some more. After seeing some of the new suits being presented in the Iron Man 3 trailers and promotional items I was immediately drawn to the Deep Space Suit. Not really knowing how painting an Iron Man helmet would go I decided to just go for it and this was the result! I tried to keep this custom as purist as possible so it would look good with the other suits I have. I'm really happy with how it came out and would love to get some feedback!

commodore_legolas Posted March 28, 2013 Nice! Maybe add one of those old space jet packs, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spider-Man Posted March 28, 2013 Nice! Maybe add one of those old space jet packs, though. Thanks and yeah I was trying to figure out how to do a jet pack since there aren't any really good pictures of the suit back yet, but I definitely think your idea would look better than nothing!

Spider-Man Posted March 29, 2013 Ya I saw that one! It looks really cool! I wanted to try to keep mine a little more purist though. I will definitely have to look into those jet packs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spider-Man Posted March 30, 2013 Amazing! Really nice choice for parts! (Sigh) I guess I'll have to hop on this bandwagon too it some point, prepare your self! ;D Thanks for the comment! I can't wait to see what you come up with! I feel like there is a lot that can be done with the helmets and different body combinations to make a bunch of different suits Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masta' Blasta' Posted March 31, 2013 (edited) I like the purist legs and torso, but the helmet could definitely use a little work as far as the paint goes, but I understand that painting LEGO isn't an easy task. Also, I have noticed in the more recent non-concept images that the eyes are now white rather than being gold like the rest, so you may want to change that a little.

Yeah I am not the best with paint and this was the best I could do without really caking it on, and I am happy with how it came. As for the eyes, I have only seen the one picture where they are white and lit up, but all the merchandise shown of the Mk 39 still has them all gold so I am going to leave it as is for the time being. If they are white all the time in the movie then I will probably change it up then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
