Bro. Sometimes ya haveta walk away for ahwhile. I did and I am working on my Tusken raider ( much simpler and less nitpicky.... and far cheaper!!!) when I am done I will come back to my Jango and Boba costumes. We all get burn when it stops being fun.... so walk away and find a way to keep costuming fun.
woww, im new to this fourm so i dont know alot of specifics about the costumes, but i think that costume looks amazing, i couldnt even imagine how much hard work you had to put into it man, congratz it looks great.
every single time i troop, i study the pics after the event and look for things to improve. i only call a costume "done" when i've run out of things to fix.

I wouldn't say I get depressed with my suit, or the progress thereof, I only get depressed when I notice how little funding I have available to work on it
Just as a side note I've considered doing side art/work as a means to fuel my own finances to further progress my suit. Things like two tone canvas paintings of a stormtrooper or something like that, or even finding something I'm good at with the suit itself and selling those pieces to members who need them for a little profit that would be directly fueled into the suit. Just my ideas, but I've been wanting to do a starwars themed painting for a while now
exactly, and it's for this reason why I appreciate every new piece I get everytime I get one. If this was easy to buy all at once, I know I probably wouldn't appreciate it as much, unfortunately

My girlfriend likes to tell me that I'd save my armor before her if the house was on fire. Of course I'd save her, but I'd have her over one shoulder and the other hand pulling my armor bin.

lol, that is a good plan; gotta run a fire drill like that sometime... now what if you have two or more armor bins? Hmmm, decisions, decisions, well, unless her legs are broken she CAN run out herself, can't she, lol
in case of fire keep a wheel chair ready with a hitch on the back to attach your bins in a train like fashion lol. this enables you to carry both girlfriend and armor effectively
In order to fund my suit I have though about learning to make parts for one of the costumes already out there or making parts for a costume that there arn't that many of and selling them for just enough profit to fund my suit.
having the money wouldn't take the fun out of it, as I am the kind of person that likes to do everything from scratch, so instead of going out and buying everything, I will try and learn how to make it myself so that I can really call it my own.
