The Armor is sheet metal with Piano Hinges. This is a very difficult peice to make due to Piano hinge's flexability. If it warps, it's damaged.
I belive I can make that.

The Trench coat is a Tai-Chi shirt with long bottoms, you can even add a zipper or reflect of Neo's outfit from The Matrix.

thanks for the help but I need help thinking on what type of fabric to use for the vest and the rest of the costume but I will try it your way. well except for the metal part.

I also have another question should I use fake leather to make the vest. with dark red cotten materal or is there somthing stronger that breathes/ won't make me sweat to much.
