What do you hope to learn here?: Honestly to meet like-minded people. I am unsure if I will be able to learn about making my own armor. (I have an amazing imagination but no skills to act on it). So I am mostly here for the social aspect. Im hoping I can get a commision for a Halo cosplay eventually.

Welcome to the 405th PropBot007 !

Bioshock, New Vegas and Reach? I think you'll fit right in here my friend!
Those games AND Black Sabbath... legend

To do with vacuum forming, we have plenty of tutorials and such that can help you out. I personally recommend the tutorial by our very own N8TEBB. It covers pretty much everything you need to know including post-processing (chroming, dying, etc). I'll link it below for you.

If you've got any other questions or problems, feel free to send a message or start a thread!

Hi Zeth, welcome to the 405th!

We've got a load of members here who are Warhammer fans (including myself), so you shouldn't have any trouble fitting in here! This is the best place to be to learn how to make Halo armour and prop weapons, we've got tutorials, guides and walkthroughs for everything. One I would recommend is the one by N8TEBB (I'm GOING to get you to 10k subs at this rate ) as it covers most of the stages and components used in making cosplay armour. I'll link it below for you!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask or open a thread.
