As with just about every film, fans were working on costumes long before the release of Rogue One. They used images from trailers, key art, and costume displays for reference. Over at The Replica Props Forum (RPF), user TheSeekerOfTru7h started a thread about his replica of Captain Cassian Andor’s costume and others jumped into share their progress. The thread is an excellent resource for reference pictures and techniques to craft replicas as well as suggestions for premade boots and jackets to start with for modification.
User WilhelmScreamer replied with his observation about the costume pieces and the patterns he used to make the jacket and shirt. The above and below photos are his.
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.
