Resources for the larger ones among us

I was looking around the last couple weeks looking for advice on choices on armor for armor for the fluffy(IE what armor hides size the best) and just general tips for the larger.

But I didn't really find anything other then how to scale pep to fit me but it didn't answer my question on camouflaging my size.

I would say that ODST armor would probably hide size the best. unfortunately Spartan armor doesn't really cover much (Something I'm dealing with with my Reach armor as I have a pretty sizable gut too),

If you have your heart set on making a certain set on armor, do it, don't let anyone criticize you for doing something you love.

My undersuit has an elastic band that goes from the back around to the front that helps to keep my gut sucked in. It does become uncomfortable after a while though =/ Naasad said it best, just don't let your size prevent you from doing what you love to do. I know plenty of bigger Spartans out there that can rock suits better than me =)

Dude, just remember, its whats on the inside that counts. Build your armor not to hide yourself. Build your armor to show yourself off.

I won't lie. My midsection is larger. However, I truly feel that when I'm -in- armor, I become a better version of myself. The experiences and how people interact with you (both cosplayer, and non-cosplayer alike) changes completely when you're in your armor. I guess the point is...be you. If you feel more like a SPARTAN, go do it. If you feel more like an ODST, do that.

Thanks for the advice everyone.

I was always going to do something ODST So I'll probably start with with a halo 3 ODST and then possibility build a halo 4 ODST armor which I also like.

And arma where you a member of a Star Trek gaming clan a few years ago?
