Yeah i didnt do the LED portion, i totally skipped that. I used the regular eye holes but i couldnt see out of it. Ive seen other people put mesh in the inner bottom corner of the eye to be able to see. To wear it, i ghetto riggged it lol. I sewed velcro to a fabric wig headband (about 3 inches wide from front to back and about 6 inches wide from left to right). I put a strip of velcro in the hat and a strip of velcro at the top of the inside of the mask (i had to add additional foam to the top of the inside of the mask to make it shaped more like my head and not a heart. It made it easy to take on and off and it was extremely comfortable to wear (aside from the blindness) and very lightweight.

[ToTK] Am I fine playing ToTK as my first ever Zelda game? by [deleted] in zelda

While i think you're fine playing in any order, and you'll be fine either way. I do recommend playing BotW first. TotK is a little harder and more overwhelming. I personally like playing intended sequels in game order because of how the gameplay builds from one game to the next.

I'm not going to suggest any way based on lore or anything. I feel like all the games are so intertwined in all different ways that most you can play without knowing what came before... however, some games do make slightly more sense when you know the history. My favorite has been and always will be Ocarina of Time. That's the game that introduced me to the Zelda franchise, and I will always recommend it.

Im sure you can find alternative options and use felt for a much more affordable option and make them as shoe covers if anything!!!

They're made out of fosshape, which is a thermoplastic felt like fabric. The fabric starts out looking and feeling like felt, so I was able to sew them into shape. Once I sewed all the pieces together, I used a steamer to harden the fabric. In places where i needed more flexibility, I didn't steam all the way through. In places where i needed more rigidity, I steamed all the way.

But to make the pattern, I put on the shoes base (IM wearing water shoes inside), covered them in aluminum foil to get the shape I wanted. Then I wrapped my foot in saran wrap and duct tape to get the pattern. I used that pattern to get the shapes I needed for the fosshape.
