Just kidding. But watch out, it's long, hard and expensive. Also, one of your top priority should be the comfort: the one wearing the armor should be able to move freely.
The base of this armor was made with chicken wire and pieces were actually sewn together with metal wire, that's how it's still intact after two years of use. Tape only the parts that you won't see, because paint will never fully hide the texture. Spray paint, or better, car paint, are your best bet for a metallic look. The body suit was made with foam sewn on a black body suit the first year, but we actually changed it for a full yellow spandex suit for the second, it's nicer and just plain better. Don't hesitate to use cardboard, it's easy to handle and gives nice results, as seen on the gun. For the shoes, take actual shoes/boots that are comfortable and work over them.
And there are plenty of tutorials all over the Internet, just go check the forums on cosplay.com and cosplaylab, you're bound to find something :3
