Hello! I’m Luke. I’m 20 and I’m currently working full time at a carwash while studying 3D modeling for my “career job”.
My favorite hobby would probably be gaming. But I also really enjoy making stuff in general. From building with LEGO, to 3D printing!
Favorite part of Halo: I love the setting, theme, and art direction, so general aesthetic?
Favorite Halo: Campain- really tough call, I’ll say Halo 2 or Reach. Multiplayer- (2024) Infinite.
Favorite video game: Portal 2.
Other interests: Tech, PC building, LEGO, Action figures.
Favorite food: Pizza.
Favorite band: Twenty One Pilots.
Favorite Movie(s): not much of a TV/movie person but I like Star Wars. Less so the Disney trilogy more the originals.
What do you hope to learn here?: How to continually improve my skills in cosplay making.
Have you built/made a costume before?: Yes! I actually was stalking this forum last year without an account and have a mostly completed MKVII suit. It was made under a ton of crunch so it’s a little rough around the edges but I learned so much and hope to make something even better with more time.
I do not belong to any other costume communities but I have looked into the 501st as a possibility later down the line.

Howya Charlie, welcome to the 405th Infantry Division!
LAN multiplayer is just a different vibe from playing with friends online isn't it? I personally enjoy it more at least.
If you're looking to make your own custom Spartan armour, you're in the right place! We have a metric TON of resources you can make use of to help make your armour. Check out the new recruits section and the Armoury to get started!
If you have any question feel free to ask!
Enjoy your time in the 405th

Hi Atlas, welcome to the 405th!
A fellow lore nerd I see, happy to have you here man. The obscure characters may be small but it's very rewarding when you get a reference or a link to the books!
A Fotus helmet and armour to match your car sounds awesome, we should have the files that you need for the build in the Armoury. We've got plenty of other tutorials and guides in the new recruits section that you can make use of as well!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask or make a thread!

Hey Marc, welcome to the 405th Infantry Division!
Modifying Nerf guns? Legend. I was actually doing that before I started Airsoft lol.
So you've made a Mandalorian? Then you shouldn't have much trouble learning how to make Spartan armour luckily. There's plenty of mediums to choose from, you can find more info on them in the new recruits section and the costume tutorials section.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
