In the Baraboo/Dells area. I am excited to see the thread as well as the finished project.
For Wisconsin typically see a good handful of halo cosplayers at colossal con north in the dells in November.
There was at least one or two other halo cosplayers around not in this pic. And I think only 3 of us communicated that we would be going.

Welcome! I'm just down the road in Oshkosh, so if you need local help with anything feel free to reach out. I just back from Kitsune Kon in Green Bay, it's a small but chill con.
The only Milwaukee con I know of coming up is Anime414. Last year I went to it (their first year) and got Steve to sign my Halo: CE pistol, so I wore my Mark IV to it.
Anime Milwaukee (AMKE) is much larger and is held in March. I'll be at Saturday for 414 and then I always go all 3 days for AMKE.

Welcome! I am over in Woodbury, MN just off the bridge basically past Hudson, WI. That is definitely a spartan smile in that helmet. Lol

Name: John aka Traffic Cone
Location: Sedalia, MO
Costuming since: Started making (or rather buying) my own costumes since 2013-2014
About me: I am a 39 year old single dad of 1, who is quickly becoming a teenager and makes me feel old everyday. I am not good about talking about myself without being asked a specific question.
Favorite Cons: I go t o Planet ComicCon in Kansas City every year. Being in the middle of the state of Missouri makes it slightly difficult to go to the bigger cities for every event, but will do my best to do what I can.
Costumes/Props: I have a Sarge from Red vs Blue, won a Planet ComicCon floor award (that I wasnt trying to compete for) for my fully 3D printed Godzilla armor costume, a MMCC approved Custom Mandalorian, as well as a spattering of other not armor related costumes.

Welcome! I usually go to Planet as well. Unfortunately It is the same day as C2E2 next year and I will be attending that con instead. Hopefully I'll be back in '27

I eventually want to go to other bigger conventions, however, I am too worried about damaging my gear for the really big events.

[pinoyfiasco]

Name: Riko
Location: Northern IL
Costuming since: 2024
About me: I've loved Halo since 2001. I've dreamed of doing cosplay since Halo 2 came out but for one reason or another just didn't have the means to do so. Now that I have two jobs, three children, and way less time to myself I figured it's prime time to start, lol. I've always just enjoyed making stuff. I'm also often behind a camera.
Favorite Cons: I haven't even been to any since I started cosplay! I want to be at C2E2 this year.
Costumes/Props: I have one Mark V suit for myself, and am currently working on two Mirage suits for my twin boys. I also have a Commando, Rogue, Mirage, and Hayabusa helmet all in various stages of progress.

Name: ArcaneGhoul_ or Sawyer
Location: Metro-Detroit Area, Michigan
Costuming since: 2025! I’ve loved cosplay for a majority of my life but never got up the courage to start until this year.
About me: I’ve been a gamer and a nerd since the day I could literally hold a controller. My dad is also a gamer and a nerd, and so he passed that on to me very young, which I’m grateful for as gaming has given me my best friends. I may be new to cosplay, but I try to make up for what I lack in skills, in enthusiasm! Always up for a chat, so don’t be afraid to reach out on here or on Discord.
Favorite Cons: I’ve never actually been to a proper con, but I hope to change that next year! I’ve just never had the opportunity to go.
Costumes/Props: I’m currently finishing up my helmet for my MKVII suit before I move onto the armor! Check my profile for a rather lengthy build thread if you’re curious.
