Illuminated Crow Mask
This project is a wearable mask inspired by the traditional plague doctor’s mask, reimagined with crow-like aesthetics. The mask features two hollow eye cutouts, each surrounded by a circular NeoPixel ring for illumination. It is worn with a large black cape and secured to the head using an elastic band. A rechargeable battery, not included in the shopping list, is attached at the back of the head to power the lighting elements.

- White spray paint or acrylic paint
- Large black cape
Transformable Light Blade
This project is a hand-held, transformable weapon that begins as a compact circular form and expands into a linear blade shape. The structure consists of interlinked segments, each embedded with a segment of NeoPixel strip. Wires are routed through the connecting joints to a central handle, which houses the on/off control and connects to a rechargeable battery located within or near the grip.

Reactive Light Claw
This project is a wearable glove-based accessory that features five claw-like extensions, each equipped with NeoPixel lighting. The claws extend outward in response to finger bending, creating a dynamic mechanical and visual effect. Each claw changes color upon activation, powered by a concealed rechargeable battery not included in the shopping list.
