The whole thing is made out of cardboard. All the round parts, like the shoulders you see there, are made of fiberglass.
After making a particular piece, I cover with good stiff poster stock to cover up the cardboard ugliness and to give a good, smooth surface for spray paint.

As for the skirt, I make it as an actual skirt that can move from an actual base or belt. So if you have a high enough object, you can lean or kind of sit on it if you flare the back section out. If it is straight up immobile ass armor, you are out of luck. Even still, dunno how I will fare as I will stand a combined 7ft tall on foot high boots.
