I really started an interest with HALO and xbox when I was working away from home and my kids and I could play together while I was away. I am recently divorced and this has become a way for myself and my son to play together. We just attended the Halo Outpost discovery event in Philadelphia, he was dressed as a Grunt, and I was wearing a minimum marine uniform. The first halo outfit i made for my son was a yellow Spartan armor for Halloween a few years ago. I live in central New York State and I also hope that this will help me get out and meet more people.

Good to see you encouraging members, however that account hasn't been active for 9 years so I don't think they'll respond, probably just best to look at the higher(number) end of threads where more recent posts are.
Seems like you have a lot of costuming experience, hope to see some work/threads from you shortly!

About me: I’m a fun loving dude who just enjoys chilling with good pals, going hard on shooters, (mostly halo, cod, and PUBG), and who has had a massive love for cosplay (especially armor) since I was about 17. The diverse and unique armor variants in halo have always been my favorite, and summer of 2014 I got my first set of ODST armor that I have tweaked over the years to make my custom skirmisher. I have a lot to learn, but with an awesome community like the 405th, good friends, and solid determination, I know that I can exceed my expectations, and create some awesome stuff. Looking forward to meeting you guys!
