ESB Fett Improvements for 501st Approval

Hello everyone!
Last Summer I completed my ESB Boba Fett costume for Fan Expo in Toronto. Since I was on a very tight time frame I left out a lot of things and rushed the things I completed. As you can see, the chest plates are too small, the collar is too wide, the flamethrower is too long, no gauntlet details, really quick jetpack, running shoes, no Wookie braids, wrong gloves, no knee darts, the list goes on. I am finally starting to improve it, going for 501st approval by March (hopefully, I won't rush to meet the deadline this time). This thread will upgraded really sporadically as I have a lot of other stuff on my plate. Any suggestions and tips along the way would be greatly appreciated.

I'm in the process of redoing and upgrading a bunch of my parts too. I should really start a thread with pics on my progress....

It's a daunting project for me. Last time every time I messed up I just thought "I'll do it right when I upgrade," but I don't feel much more prepared now. It's also hard to get it perfect when scratchbuilding everything.
