I would not recommend using microfiber for this project since it is notoriously hard to work with (which I found out midway through).įor the tunic, I mostly followed this wonderful tutorial at Dagorhir. Microfiber is a sort of classification of fabrics, not really a type, but the store I went to couldn't really elaborate and I'm not familiar enough with fabrics to know the difference. I obtained the unlinked items from a local fabric store for the tunic you want fabric with a little stretch to it but not too much. Please also reference the Eye of Agamotto instructable on how to create the last piece of this costume. 2 FLORA Accelerometer/Compass Sensor - LSM303.Florist wire (to secure the armature wire with).1 yd of Light Blue Microfiber (Satin would be better).2 yds of Blue Microfiber (Cotton would be better).So, this is not only my first project using microcontrollers, but also my first version of this costume that I hope to refine over time and coincidentally my first cosplay. I figured microcontrollers would be the best way to bring the effects to life but my experience with them is almost nil. With the bar set high, I knew I needed to incorporate some amazing effects. While the character is still rather esoteric (heck, he was the psychedelic pulp icon of the 60's and 70's), he has been brought to life by quite a few amazing cosplayers. I'll spare you his backstory, Marvel is much better at telling it than me. However tackling an entire costume from scratch of the Sorcerer Supreme seemed like a supreme challenge, so naturally, I decided to make it. I don't think he meant me to take him seriously though. With the film coming soon, a friend of mine said my next costume should be Dr. Strange costume brought to life with spells using microcontrollers, LEDs and sensors!
