midnight_stories has several outfits of that kind, I first thought it's an outfit by them.
I've seen their work but this is the first complete outfit by anyone that really clicked with my personal taste in costume design for an antagonist without having to mix-and-match from other outfits in my library.
I could use a female version, although the name makes me smile; a suit by its definition is exo. As an exoskeleton it appears understated - perhaps that's the meaning behind the name?
Anyone tried fitting it to G8F?
... Oh there is - and flat heels! Shame she has such a well defined bust, but I suppose it's not possible to have everything?
To reiterate the OP; thank you, thank you, thank you.

Yeah, I initially thought it was by midnight_stories, but it's apparently by Dajenksta.
Incidentally, Dajenksta's A.N.T.S Armored Nanotech Suit (available for G8M and G8F) is a beautifully-made 'power armor' suit. If the Vitruvian suit is half as well-made, it ought to be well worth buying.
Yes, same. I like midnight stories' work a lot, and will buy a lot of it upon release. I like having varied armor sets for the good guys, and they all can sport similar color patterns.
However, it is also good to have another set of futuristic armor suits with a different look and feel. These are definitely good as an antagonist set.
Okay, I have to echo the original poster and others on this!!! Wow, great work! I typically don't buy on release day often, let alone, stop in here to discuss much, but these suits are terrific. Awesome hybrid style of something out of Splinter Cell, Crysis & Metal Gear. I love midnight_stories' stuff too and have a bunch of those pieces. These somehow nail a specific look I need for a couple of projects.
Thank you!
Part of the chorus here. The Vitruvian Exosuit for G8M is superb. It renders quickly and beautifully. Thank you for creating this wonderful suit!!

My Pleasure!
I'm So glad you all like them. I put alot of love (and time) into these! These comments make it all worth while. Thankyou bytescapes for the A.N.T.S plug. I'd better go and get on with my next project!
Thanks again people, I really hope you enjoy the suit.
I got both of them in the bundle and they are really great. Wish I could grab the ANTS but just bought a large bundle and my wallet gets nervous when I do that.
These suits look well done, so congrats and I hope they do well. Unfortunately they remind me of the old Xurge3D nanosuit I have for M4 which I thought looked really cool, but could really never find any use for it. Maybe if there were a tactical expansion with things like a vest, pouches, ammo, side arm, utility belt and/or holster, etc all in the same style

A quick test with the G8F suit.
Yes, the price of the big bundle is kind of high, but compared to many Pro Bundles, this one is full of things that I find useful for my interests.
I love these suits because they totally ignore all the "techwear tropes" that annoy the bejeezus out of me. I listed eight of them in another post.
Midnight Stories stuff is cool, don't get me wrong. I have Mercury Ranger, Solar Wardens, Universe Explorer, Mechtropolis (a "must have", BTW), Hydron, etc.
But Solar Wardens leaves a "throat slitting" gap between the suit and the helmet. Mercury Ranger has it, too, althoug you only see it when a character tilts their head. Hydron has heels in the female version (although they're more "cowgirl" than "stilleto". And that's OK, because 95% of this stuff is fantasy. I enjoy writing my way around the tropes: I've got at least ten great explanations for "cleavage windows" in armor.
But the Vitruvian exosuits look like they will work even when the story is hard science. I've been meaning to do a quick graphic novel of Ian Banks "Descendant", and I think I may have my spacesuit.
