I've started on my War Machine build and will be doing a Mark VII as well. I'm building these using foam, and have looked through all the amazing builds in various threads. My only question is how does everyone make the feet/boots so you can walk in them? Do you build them around a shoe using glue and use the tread on the shoe, or is it better to place the shoe on top of a built/cutout foam bottom of the foot armor? I think for the tread detail, it's better to build on top of the foam that's been cut and built, but I keep thinking that the foam will wear out faster than the real rubber tread of a shoe once it starts hitting pavement, concrete, etc.
Please chime in and tell me how you did yours and how it's working for you.
