From Sienna:

“This is my ‘computer head’ costume I made for halloween! I followed a tutorial by ‘minbitt’ for the overall process of building it and for coding the screen.

This costume took me a few months to build. Whilst building it, I had to teach myself how to do a lot of things I had never done before, such as 3d modeling, animating, coding, large-scale 3d printing, soldering, wiring, using epoxy, muddy, spray paint, and sanding, tinting a polycarbonate sheet, calibrating an accelerometer, and more!

I did it because I wanted to learn how to do all of these things and because I thought it would be super cool. It was extraordinarily tedious at times, but I really enjoyed making it overall.”
