Other: Yo I'm Shayne. I have lurked here since the days of the 405ths creation. I first wanted to make a Halo costume when I was 12 years old. Halo had been out for 2 years at this point and I had mastered every single thing about that campaign over 2 years of constant playing. I was online one night and I seen somewhere some guy made a Halo masterchief suit from metal plating with and under suit and it looked almost identical to the chief. It was 10 grand. That's what led me to look up costume making and pepakura and then I seen it. the 405th. it's good to actually be here.
I'm going to document my journey into making a spartan costume and we will see how it all goes. my first task is getting my printer perfectly set up to print. I have and ender 6 and it's beautiful.
look forward to meeting you all!
