All I want to do is make a Mandalorian Merc armor cosplay.
Do I have any of the skills necessary to even attempt this task, much less complete it? HAHAHAHA no.
My advice’d be FAKE IT TIL YOU MAKE IT, MAN.

Honestly. I mean especially if you’ve been feeling at a loose end lately; “The act of creation saves us from despair.”
My dolls are messy and imperfect but I love them anyway and I enjoy making them, my jewelry is amaturish and untrained but people seem to like it regardless. Honestly if I had a green curly wig on hand I’d be working like a madwoman to try to throw together a Terra cosplay for the con we’re having in town next month lol. At least trooper armour is only armour!
I find that projects are a lot more fun if I just do them ‘cos it’s fun and not spend the whole time worrying that the end result will be inadequate, or judged. Every moment spent working on them, is learning to do better.
