Armor and other complex costuming thread.

I find myself at a standstill anons. I want to design complex armor and the like, but honestly I have no idea how the stuff works mechanically, or what it looks like at uncomfortable angles, and no matter how much I try looking up reference, I often come up with nothing. am I just fucked? do I need to go outside, to a museum? am I too autistic insisting I need to understand this stuff so intricately? I want to know how you guys deal with this kind of stuff.
