If the suit were 'for reals', I wouldn't put human arms in the suit arms if this profile had to be followed exactly. The suit's arms would be controlled via thoughts, brain jack, or similar sci-fi concept. The wearer of the suit would have his arms crossed over his chest, and in the core chest piece. Similar to some of Shirow's designs from Appleseed. For a costume, you can probably distort the profile and get away with it.
