Making (bivy) tent similar to Marmot Home Alone - 08/07/16 09:20 AM

Hi!
I'm hoping to make a bivy tent along similar lines to that of the Marmot Home Alone Bivy Tent, but with significant ventilation to reduce condensation, but still weatherproof!
Has anyone got any ideas?
Cheers

I don't have any hands on experience, but have you checked out Henry Shire's original tarptent instructions:

It doesn't have the hooped ends, but if I was going to attempt making a tent I would start there.
