I see a lot of introductions here but I also see a lot of guests in the active users.

At the time this was posted there was 10 members and 92 guests.

I'm a big fan of participation. You can be here to view and if you care to lurk that's perfectly fine. But for all those lurking and waiting, let me tell you something. I can learn just as much from you as you can from me.

This is about the friendliest forum you'll come across, well moderated and kind to the core. If you're hesitant to jump in, do me a favor and pull an ODST. Feet first y'all. You're in good company here.

 

[JuryRigged]

First Name: Nathanael (I go by all five nicknames, just spell my name correctly, please)
Profession? Student?: Retail as a Merchandising and Servicing Associate. I.E. I clean up other employee's mistakes.
Age: 20, soon to be 21
Favorite Hobby: Doing anything with my hands, as long as I can put something together or take it apart, I'm happy.
Favorite part of Halo: It's the ease of accessibility. Having only older siblings, Halo was one of the only FPS games that I was capable of playing competently with my brothers. Its gameplay is simple yet expansive, lore there in many forms for those who wish to learn, and its community welcoming to most. It's a game I can turn on when my nieces and nephews come over and know when I play that the only advantage I have is experience, otherwise they are just as capable as winning if they want to try.
Favorite Halo: Halo Reach for story and Halo 4 for gameplay, otherwise it's a tie.
Favorite Video Game: Titanfall 2
Other Interests: Transformers, Star Wars, Star Trek, Stargate, art, a bit of writing, roleplay, voice acting, etc, etc.
Favorite Food: Why limit one's self to only one?
Favorite Band: My music taste is a mash, there is no one band.
Favorite Movie(s): That... would take me quite a while to decide. But let's go with treasure planet for now.
What do you hope to learn here?: I have years of just watching tutorials and builds from all sorts of crafters and makers, but I can always learn more techniques and tricks. Five threads in and I've already heard quite a bit about this stuff called 'shoe goo'...
Have you built/made a costume before?: Costume? Depends, does bolting cut scraps of wood to foam sheets in the vague shape of armor count? If so, yes, otherwise, no; but I plan to change that with the Reach Operator helmet I'm working on.
Do you belong to any other costume communities? If so, which one(s)?: Nope. Congrats, you guys are my first. (Insert RvB Tucker reference)
