You get points just for finding a use for that terrible Iron Man pegwarmer, lol. Never saw the character before but the likeness is good. That is one busy costume.

Haha...thanks! Unfortunately for me, I have an addiction to collecting and keeping (or hoarding) action figures so I have an Iron Man too; yeah I bought 2

Now with added eye-flame effect!!!

I used a clear action figure pack-in twist-tie, then ever so carefully to avoid giant globs, apply hot glue then painted and sealed...thankfully it was small enough and the placement was good as it doesn't block the view of the sculpted cyborg eye too much

Whoa, that's a lot of sculpting and a lot of work! Excellent job! The flaming eye is not only a bit genius but came out beautifully, too!
