  Hey! Got a couple of quick questions... What do you print your pepakura templates on? Is it standard A4 paper or? And could you give me some idea of where you got your materials for the Iron Man helmet build?
The card stock I use is 200-210gsm weight, that’s usually the highest weight a home printer can take without it being too much for the printer to cope with.
The resin and bondo/body filler I recommend you look online and buy in bulk off eBay, if your building a whole suit especially. You’ll save a lot, even if it does seem pricey at times. I used fibreglass mat too but that’s just because I found it really cheap, otherwise I would use fibreglass cloth because it’s woven and really makes it far stronger. If you live I the uk then take a look at halfords because they have basic supply’s for all of these materials, if your in the U.S. then I recommend Home Depot.
Hope this was of some help.
