About you: Hello! I am Austin, Character's name is Authmion, and my call sign is ARES. (see above) I am just starting out in the costuming aspect of the halo universe, and have been following the 405th's website for a couple of years. Even though I dont have any posts. :p My favorite weapon loadout in Halo is a DMR and a Sniper rifle, but when I eventually get to making my suit, I will include a magnum, because one can never have enough weapons :3 I plan on building mine, as well as some friends of mine a suit, so that maybe we can start out own little squad within the unit. (long term goal...lol) I enjoy video games (obviously...) LARPing, Cosplay, computers, and hanging out. Live in Wilmington.
Favorite Conventions: I have been to IchibanCon in Charlotte and Animazement in Raleigh, and will probably go to any other con I can within a fairly decent driving radius.

Name: J. Rex Martens
Age: 30
Location: Arlington, VA close to DC
Occupation: Retail Management/Cycle Gear manager
About me: Been working on a Mk VI build off and on for 3 years, have had to scrap more pieces than I care to admit, lol. Just recently got married, and wont have a lot of time or spac3 to work on it for a little bit yet. However, I've been a lurker here for much longer than I've been a member, and have built many a piece of pep just to build up the skills and keep myself decent at it, even if my scaling needs work. Feel free to ask any questions. As I work in the motorcycle industry, I have access to helmet liners either really cheap or free, so if anyone needs one, let me know.

Cons: primarily just Otakon. Will be trying to head to more, but retail management is horrible to try and get time off.

Age: 17

Location: Tampa, FL

Occupation: Technically legally jobless. I do crap around my neighborhood and a ton of armor commissions.

About me: I've been doing prop work on an amateur level since about 2008, but only in the past year or so have I stepped it up and gotten into commission work and "manufacturing" (several failed attempts at vacuumforming).
I've never attempted anything as complex as a Spartan before, but I'm hyped to do it. I'm not sure how quickly it'll happen; I make easy costumes on a budget, but I AM looking forward to getting a helmet done and hanging with you guys at cons here in the South!

Occupation: Currently a Customer Service Rep at Ebay under the StubHub verticle.
About you: Pretty laid back kinda of guy, so far I have yet to finish any part of my armor due to lack of time/money but the pieces I do own I bought through commissions. As soon as I can get the time/money to finish I'll definitely try my best to do so. I'm going for a heavy kinda build for my spartan just because I'm a heavy guy and I feel it suits me more.
Favorite Conventions (where we can most likely meet up with you): The main convention I'll be going to will be Megacon but I do travel and I use to live in the D.C. area so I used to go to Katsucon as well as Otakon

Both pictures are of me as Fancy Chief but the red helmet will be the one I'm basing the rest of my armor off of:
