Halloween 2023 Cosplay: Donatello from Rise of the TMNT!

Speaking of Craft Bingo, here are some photos from Halloween, where I got first place in my workplace's costume contest!



I learned how to solder so I could make myself a custom light-up backpack:







Making the battle shell backpack was fun, but definitely a learning experience! It opens up a world of possibilities for future LED projects.

I have to say, most people at my workplace didn’t really understand what I was dressing up as. They got it as soon as I showed them some reference pics :)

That is an amazing project! It's probably the best way to learn, by making something you really want to create, and it's always a learning experience you can carry forward.
That was a well deserved first place win :D

Thank you!! It was definitely a fun way to learn. It made it easy to not give up at the first roadblock, because I had this image in my head, and I *wanted* it so badly for Halloween!
