The mods look great guys. I wish I was brave enough to try them. But I am so scared to ruin this figure.
Looks great! I like the copper on the gold idea. I think I'll try it.
And yeah it's extra work to finish it off with the stripes and collar color but it's so worth it. I'm looking at mine and it was a big pain and risk to fine tune the stripes but the results are so smooth.
I have to try your S symbol technique now
I can't wait to get Tony's cape. I think it will be the icing on the cake.
I felt the same way Darth Zangetsu but I did little by little. I started off with a repaint of the hope symbol to give it a more reflective aspect like in the movie. The next day was a custom blue metallic mix dry brushed on the gauntlets to be more movie accurate and gold/copper mixture on the belt. Then today was the plunge to mod the traps removing the inner collar and moving the outer collar down and painting all the black lines on his suit and collar with the blue metallic. I also did the hope symble edges in the blue metallic as well.
Point is, just start small and work your way up to the more difficult mods, none of these mods are that difficult. Just go very very slow and you'll be fine. Patience and going very slow is key. I'd start off with something small like the gauntlets and go from there. I will post some pics tomorrow of my finished product. But I gotta say with all these mods done he looks 10 times better than stock and will be complete once he has the Tony custom cape!!
Is the ankle mod easily reversible?
There's a reason they gave him the longer pegs, his legs look extremely odd with the shorter ones.
what pegs are you guys using? The stock pegs don't seem to long...
So, I think I may have missed a step. I removed the inner collar and hollowed out the upper collar but I still don't see much of a difference. I want to see more neck like some of the photos other people posted
After my mods mine does not show that much of the curve of his neck. What did I do wrong :-/
After the mod, how do I install Tony's cape? Just glue?

did you have to cut some of the suit so that it didn't come out the neck side of the collar?We all repositioned the collar closer to the emblem as well.
