I just placed an order for an Ant-Man suit/costume/cosplay with an Aliexpress seller, "X-COSTUMES". This is actually the seller from one of the links darthwhitey inquired about earlier in this thread.

It ships from Shenzhen, China. I ordered from this seller as he very promptly replied to questions I had about the costume in well-written English.
I should receive the suit in 15-20 days - and I plan to enhance the gloves, belt, and add weathering similar to how X3R0_SHIF7 did. I'll post pics before altering anything if anyone wants to see.

Hey everyone,

I have been tying to make a homeade Ant-Man suit with black and red T-shirts, EVA foam for some detail, red puffy paint for the detail on the red. straws that i would later paint silver for the tubes, and lots of cardboard. In middle of the build i began thinking that it would come out terrible so i want to build a real replica suit. (Correct me if im wrong to use these 2 materials. I want to get the proper look a.k.a Relica so if I got these wrong tell me and let me know if there are better fabics for the suit) So far I got Red 2 Way Stretch Upholstery Faux Leather vinyl fabric (For the Red Parts):

And Black 2 Way Stretch Upholstery Faux Leather vinyl fabric (For the Black Parts):

Can anyone please help me find what material I need to use for the tubing, the elbow/knee/side pieces, the method i am able to use to make the pattern on the red parts, the method to make the gauntlet, backpack, belt and anything that is not fabic based, and lastly is there a Template for an exact Replica Ant-Man Helmet ?

I'm new into making suit like these: Ant-Man, Captain America, Hawkeye or Black Widow (basically anything that is not armor) So if anyone can help me with methods to use or anything that would help a beginner out that would be great thanks. :)

Here are some Reference pictures for the Ant-Man Suit if anyone needs them
