Fierce Deity Link and Ganondorf Went Bushido for Holiday Matsuri
Holiday Matsuri attracted a number of talented cosplayers, many of whom put festive spins on their costumes for the event. We featured a video showing off several ensembles in early January, but now Reddit, specifically Redditor Playing_Panda, has brought another one to my attention. Playing Panda Cosplay and Rockweller dressed as Bushido Ganondorf and Bushido Fierce Deity Link. Rockweller upgraded his Fierce Deity Link (which was his first costume) for the gathering, including adding to the armor and making a new Pepakura form mask. You can see a photo of the mask below.
Playing Panda Cosplay made Ganondorf’s armor from foam and if you take a close look at the above picture, you’ll see candy canes decorating the armor. A better picture of that is also below.
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.
