Gamora will be appearing on screen soon in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, but she’s been featured in the pages of comic books for a while. SpiderCamCosplay recently built the comics version of the costume, and the process looks labor intensive. She made the armor from EVA foam (pictures below) and just that part took her 6-7 hours. The gun appears to be built up from an existing toy gun and modified with foam and paint. She used Perspex acrylic backlit by blue LEDs for a cool effect. She also used LEDs in the spine piece of the armor.

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.
