Is anyone working on one of these? I've never done serious costuming, but I'm pretty good with my hands. I think I'll start collecting screencaps and other pics and see just how much I'll be biting off...
 
Wow, she did a great job! Right behind the helmet lens, I figured sourcing the fabric was gonna be the next biggest problem. Thanks!
 
That is a sweet space suit done by Susie. I want one. (I'm starting to realise, I'm becoming a prop geek and want everything :S )

You should definitely have a go at making one of these.
 
I've been looking over some screencaps, and I think the clear part of the helmet was added in digitally. I've heard they do that, to get a clean performance, and I cant find any shots in the making of stuff on the dvd where there is a lens.

What do you think would be a good pattern for the suit? Everything I've found has been too baggy.
 
I think they might have made the black part of the helmet from a motorcycle helmet. And, I noticed some tracking marks on the making of stuff, so I'm sure the lens was added digitally.
 
Like this, they probably had to remove the padding too

where they cut the face area out above the snaps. Here's a screencap.

You can see the green tracking points here as well.
 
Look at paragear.com
The skydiving helmets they list there are usually a lot thinner/tight fitting than the bigger motorcycle/moped helmets.
