Awsome job, i like it. My GF is trying to make female Noble 6 armor and trying to make it at time and be ready for the Reach release party. I'll go as ODST. Good luck with armor :)
 
Depends what your methods are and how heavy you slop it on. Why, do you need to buy it all at once? It really depends on how many layers of fiberglass you do, how tall you are (really), and how thick you like your resin layers. My first (probably totally way off) estimate is at least a half gallon for a full suit. Maybe a full gallon. As for fiberglass, you're going to need, you know, enough to cover all the surface area on your armor. Or 2x or 3x that if you're going to do multiple layers of fiberglass. And then there's Bondo...
 
Not to contradict what Flyerfye was saying, but do smaller coats first so that it strengthens the paper and doesn't warp...
Then after three to five coats, you can start to add thicker amounts of resin...
Hope I was of any help :)
