Hello all, I'm very new to costuming or still kinda new. I've wanted to build since I was little, and have lurked through the forums since I was a teenager. I've always lacked funds, but I think I can finally start getting there at least piece by piece. I'm pretty short and stout, myself so I'm 4'11, and 175 - 190 (I need to weigh myself) I just know that it would probably be pretty difficult for someone my size at least to modify armor to that particular size. I mean I've at least seen sizes go down for people at least 5'3, so that's a good 4 inches. Any suggestions on what type of armor, or material I should get? or start with? I mean I've looked at various kits and I'm wanting to be a Heavy Weapons Trooper, and I have some things saved in some list but the kit is super important
Thank you in advanced
