Hey guys! Is anyone planing on going to Wondercon this year? It's the weekend of April 1-3. I'll be going on the 2nd (saturday). I'll be sporting my gold and crimson armor for the 405th there if anyone is interested in making a group out of it.

Whoa, Z06. Didn't know you were from the Reno/Truckee area. REALLY dig how you build your own stuff from scratch.
 
Well I'm late to this party too but here I am with more info and a question or two.

Name: James

Location: Huntington Beach, Orange County, CA

Xbox live Gamer tag: Wrathprime

Completed costumes/projects: none yet but ODST foam suit in progress.

WIP's: ODST and possible weapons, thinking of doing a jet pack too.

I was wondering why there's an A and C company but not a B company?
Are there any California meet ups coming up and where and who will be there?
 
C and A are Northern and Southern California, respectively. Welcome to Alpha Company, James! Someone was working on a meetup here in so cal, but disneyland was out due to no costumes being allowed inside the park. for updates on the California Halo Costuming Group, facebook is a wonderful tool. you should totally join us there.
and it's nice to have another ODST. We need more helljumpers!

Well thank you.

i am still curious as to the skipping over B to C in naming the companies.

It's also good to see another 405th member in Orange County!
 
just happened to walk into this thread, but the title caught my attention.

I'm from Knights Landing, CA. Very few people have heard of this little town, but I'm one of the only Pep-Armourers in town. CHCG Unite!

Name : Gene
Favorite Halo game : ODST, Reach
Occupation :Full-Time Dad used to be an IT professional
Hobbies: Making props/costumes, Xbox/PS3 Gaming
About me : I'm from San Diego, California and a 14 year U.S. Navy veteran where I worked as a jet engine specialist and also worked as a "final checker" (guys in the white jerseys) on an aircraft carrier. In 1997 I separated from the Navy after getting certified in Computer Applications and Networking from Coleman University. I landed a job as a computer operator at the San Diego Super Computer Center UCSD afterwards. My wife and I decided that one of us should stay at home after our second child was born and I won. So that I don't get bored, I started costuming back in 2006 and joined the 501st Legion as a sandtrooper, biker scout, EP3 clonetrooper and ROTJ Boba Fett. I discovered Halo costuming when doing a search for Pepakura files and got hooked after visiting the 405th site. So, I decided to make a Reach UNSC Trooper for starters. But my next Halo costume will be an ODST for sure.
 
I was looking though the forums and came across this thread
is it too little to late to join in on the C.A. group?
I live in Landcaster California and wanted to get know the other members in Cali :)
 
i love my Reach ODST, but i wish Hugh Holder's files had been around 2 years ago when i started here! he is a master of the halo 3 odst, and it's my favorite model (mostly because of Landfall).

Other: Indeed, I'm kid no matter my age. I loved lurking on this site, but I think It's time to gather yet another hobby.

This is my first experience with something of this caliber. I've painted a few surfboards, I make stencils, and, as I reposted above, I'm currently working on painting my XBOX controller. But I've always wanted to do costumes. Just let me know what to do (other than to get cracking' on it! ;])
 
I guess I forgot to post here... Hello fellow Californians! I don't have facebook, though so I guess I will be missing out on that group.

And hey Dinosaur, my friend is in SD right now probably working on boats or surfboards! Welcome to the forum, from another noob, have you picked out a suit to make yet?
