The worlds of Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra offer a number of options for low budget cosplayers. Though there are plenty of complex looks to choose from for more challenging cosplay (like Suki’s armor), some of the characters essentially wear elaborate robes and pajamas. Both Aang and Korra have straightforward fabric costumes — the kind that can be sewn from scratch but can also be modified from existing clothes. Case in point: Redditor sensefrau assembled an on-point version of Korra’s costume from Season 4 from two old men’s shirts and fabric scraps. The whole look cost her less than 20€/$22.
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.
