How do you make armor models that are not bulky and stick out?

How do you make armor models that are not bulky and stick out? Some mods that ive played with like the tech guns mod have armor sets that dont look flat and bulky. There is a tutorial I found for 1.12.2 that uses 3d moddels but forge has changed alot since 1.12.2 so im not sure how to do it

Model them in the way you want? Only thing you really need to pay attention to is inflation of parts and that usually never is noticeable enough to matter.
