90% personnal creation SCI-FI armor

This is an awesome and inspiring build!

I have a couple questions about the armor fitting. How do you get in and out of your armor? How do you get your bracers, thighs, and shin armor to stay in place and what are you doing to prevent them from just falling off?

I'm drafting a build and I'm stuck on how the armor will actually attach.

Hey,

that was my first build. i've used some snap to fasten the foam for the bracers for exemple

here the snap i've used :

The bracers stay in place because they are tighten ( i've made the pattern directly on my arm --> you can use ducktape to create your own pattern )
The shin are tighten too i can run with the suit without loosing pieces ;)
For the thighs you have to snap them to your belt with a piece of foam. i've use this technic for my superman armor and it's really effective, i can run and jump the suit differents parts are not moving !

and here on my Superman suit

Now about the chest. hard to explain when you are not comfortable with english so the best thing to do is taking pictures of how a get in so stay tunned i will post pics during the day.

Hope this help
