Sticking to yo gunz!

One problem I have in cosplay is becoming so devoted to a costume that you do not think about starting anything else. It gets CRAZY when you have multiple projects at once.

Right now I have two in progress, one that needs to be redone, and several that I want to do (atleast 5 or more)

Its a problem.
I envy those that can stick to their guns and work steadily on one costume.

So, I have attempted to come up with ways that may help cosplayers do that.

1. Work steadily - like maybe every DAY - to finish a costume. That way it gets done quicker and you're able to move on to the next.
2. Motivation! Find something to motivate you, whether it be a song (T.I's Movtivation is mine), rewatching/rereading/replaying the series,
3. Get inspired! I find that looking at people that have already made the costume inspires me to make my own
4. The rule for everything: HAVE FUN! If it becomes too stressful, taking a break works wonders. Its sometimes good to have two projects because one upsets you there's another that wants your attention :)
