When you say 'You don't want it in Fabric's' what do you mean?

Armor looks great buddy I do hope you get loads of people to jump on board.

Well, I'd like to make some pieces actual metal or plastic. Where can you find the full on Halo body armor at? I'm doing some research on that and I'd also like to cosplay as Terra from KH which is also a full body armor suit.

Wow, really! That sounds like an awesome project to do. Is there somewhere online that does a step by step? I think I saw a company that made them, but can't remember.

Really? I think pepakura is complicated for most people. Basing it off the actual picture isn't too hard to figure out, just as long as you know how to do it.

How is folding paper too complicated? It's not hard at all, it just requires time, patience, and dedication.

Also Vrogy, looks incredible!
