Tokusatsu Champion?

I need help designing a costume for a Tokusatsu genre inspired champion.

More specifically, shows like Super Sentai and Kamen Rider.

I use to have a character on CoX named Rider 00, later called Rider Beta, that someone drew a me a picture of, but I can't seem to recreate him here.

    EDIT*
    There were awesome guides for creating "Japanese Superheroes" but now borked since the forum overhaul.

    Hum... the only V antenna things seen before are those "gundam-like" ones from Sakura robot thing costume, but those are a little too big maybe.

    Let me see if i can make a look a like.

    Edit: Well the head part maybe use a V symbol, the closest can be for now, i can find.
    Okay, here is what i kinda copied.

    There's several ways to get a helmet with that sort of distinctive Kamen Rider look.

    One is to use a full helmet like this:
    • Base helmet: either a basic, visor helmet or the viper helmet (shown here.)
    • Eyes: V forehead crest
    • Top: Sakura crest
    • Side: Basic armoring. This nicely wraps around the sides of your helmet and gives it a bit of texture.
    • Mouth: Any works, but my favored one is the basic mouthguard (shown in this picture). The purpose this serves is to cover up the bottom part of the visor and make the remaining visor look like the signature 'insect eyes' of a kamen rider helmet.

    Half Helmets can also get pretty close to the look you're going for. Full masks, I find, retain too much of the base head's texture, making it look more like you're wearing a nylon mask with some bug eyes pasted on rather than a full-face helmet.

    full helmets are what you'll really need.
    Creating a Sentai is somewhat difficult due to lack of facial options on their helmets.
    So you best bet might be to make a Kamen Rider.

    What I used was a basically full helmet with face visor.
    Then I added on a normal head crest/accessory (pretty much ANY face accessory that goes down teh middle of the visor) and a normal mouthpiece to get the eye shape.
    That's the easier way to make helmets.

    As for suites, normal and normal pattern spandex or jumpsuit ill work.
    Boots should be knee high, and have a cuff (well the cuff is optional, I just think it looks better) same thing with gloves. Don't forget the flashy looking belt as well.
