When Jean Grey first joined the X-Men, her Marvel Girl costume was pretty simple. The green dress and yellow mask and gloves are iconic and quite snazzy. Kelldar made the outfit back in 2009 and says it was a fun and simple project. I promise that cosplay can be easy if you just give it a chance. Here are the basics:
I made the dress using an ice-skating leotard pattern, out of green spandex. It’s also lined in the same fabric. I made boot covers for a pair of boots I already had. I used my Rogue gloves and made cuffs for them, and bought a belt and covered it in fabric. The belt buckle I bought online. My husband made the mask for me (same as the Huntress one – vac-formed plastic over my head cast), and I had the wig. (I had wanted a new one for this, but still haven’t gotten one!) It was a simple, comfy costume.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
