Want to add fancy LED lights to your costumes? This is the place to start! Followed by millions of people from all over the world, Svetlana Quindt aka "Kamui Cosplay" published this beginner guide as part of her bestselling line of tutorial books.
Wearing a costume is awesome, sure! But wearing a costume that glows in the dark? Utterly mind-blowing! Luckily anyone can add LEDs to their costumes and props. It's really easy! In her typical bubbly way Svetlana talks about everything you will need to get started: understanding LEDs and how they work, soldering simple serial and parallel circuits and figuring out how long they last with each battery. She will also help you to find all tools and products needed, how to cast shiny gemstones and even how to include the finished lights into your costume.
Over many years Svetlana has grown to be one of the most beloved and respected figures in the cosplay community. Still she loves nothing more than sharing her knowledge with others.
This book will inspire you to craft, explore, and--most of all--enjoy the excitement of making your own costumes.
"Cosplay is for everyone, so let's have some fun together!"
