I never get tired of seeing armor and weapons made from Worbla, and cosplayer Anja M., a.k.a. Wonder Workshop Cosplay, used the material for her recent warrior costume. The character is from the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) Rohan Online. The patterns on every piece of the armor are detailed; the build requires a high level of craftsmanship and skill. She used Worbla and craft foam for the armor pieces, while the giant sword was made from PVC, Worbla, and the blades are mirrored. The sword is 5 feet and 9 inches, and even though it works for photo, it’s actually too heavy for her to carry when she wears the 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.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
