Halloween costume ideas

  1. Karen, the sentient computer wife of Plankton in SpongeBob SquarePants

I plan to use foam or cardboard as the main material for the computer head frame, since it is lightweight, easy to cut and shape, making it convenient to build and wear.

For the display screen, I designed a two-layer structure:

Outer layer: made of black translucent acrylic, creating a realistic screen texture and reflective surface.

Inner layer: made of clear acrylic, used to mount and secure the light bulbs, ensuring stable and even illumination.

2. Wearable biblically accurate angel wings

I plan to purchase ready-made feather wings and combine several of them into a single larger structure to form the main wearable piece.

In the next step, I will 3D print several eye-shaped covers to serve as lampshades and attach them to the wings.

After that, I will install the light bulbs and wiring, allowing each “eye” to blink and emit light.

Finally, the piece will be worn on the back, with each eye-shaped light continuously blinking and shifting in color.

3. Sandy Cheeks from SpongeBob

One thought on “Yiran’s NeoPixel Circuit & Halloween costume ideas”

  1. Hi Yiran, I hope you chose the angel wings! I think they’ll be the most fun to wear at the parade (easier than having a box on your head). You could use the individual pixels you already have in your kit.
