Remember, MC is around 7' tall...even 5'4" would look small.

For future reference;
Elites=9'
Brutes=7'
Grunts=5'4"
Drones=3'6"
Jackals=5-6'
Hunters=12'
Prophets=6" (standing)
Flood Infections=1'6"-2'
Monitors=2'4" Diameter
Sentinels=4'6"x2'6"x2' (LxWxH)
Gravemind=[UNKNOWN]

All taken straight from the Halo Bestiary (from memory, so if you find a different source, go ahead and post it).

A grunt-suit is conceivable...make the methane tank out of stretched canvas (like a tent), the mask is a painting respirator or pep, and the rest of the helmet can be pep, as well as the rest of the sections. For the exposed flesh, skin-tint (last about 8x as long as skin-paint) and faux-fur (dark bluish/purple, of course) would take care of most of it. Prosthetics for the eet would be relatively easy if you have the materials (they talk about body casts in the molded armor section, it would be easy to modify). The horns on the kness and elbows can either be pep or prosthetics (the latter being preffered but harder). Since their hands have 4 fingers ad a thumb too, the covering/prothetics method would work here too. I guess the voice would be the only truly hard part...

hmm, makes me want to try a grunt-suit next...or a hunter prosthesis...yeah......[*drools]

I was going to use the pdf files for ironman and for the samus helmet i already have one half way done. Its made from scratch out of cardboard. First i got the front view of samus' helmet and scaled it up to human size for a template. I dont really have any plans for it though
