Favorite part of Halo: "Men, we led those dumb bugs out to the middle of nowhere to keep 'em from gettin' their filthy claws on Earth. But, we stumbled onto somethin' they're so hot for, that they're scramblin' over each other to get it. Well, I don't care if it's God's own anti-son-of-a-b* machine, or a giant hula hoop, we're not gonna let 'em have it! What we will let 'em have is a belly full of lead, and a pool of their own blood to drown in! Am I right, Marines?"- Pretty much sums up my love for Halo.

I'm going to be the odd man out here. I don't really play Halo and haven't since .. well, the original. I registered because you guys have an amazing costuming community and I am soaking in tips and tricks for my Iron Man build, of which you guys seem to host more than a few. The threads I've been lurking have proven to be really helpful and I wanted to be able to interact and ask questions.

I joined up quite a while ago but I'm back again so I thought I would post up another introduction since it's been a few years.

Name: Josh
Age: 30
Profession: Paramedic
Location: Austin, TX
Quick biography: I am a US Army veteran. I served two tours in Iraq as a Cavalry Scout before I was injured and medically retired. I currently work as a paramedic on a critical care unit. I am engaged and own my own home. I'm a dog person, but have four cats, not my planning. I live my fiancée and her parents. They hit hard times so they are staying with us until they get back on their feet. I don't have much for hobbies but I'm regularly involved in Viking reenactment. I also read a lot.

Favorite Game: Reach
Favorite Character: Hard to say
Least Favorite Game: Halo 2
Time playing Halo: Been with it since CE.

Intended build: Standard ODST
The Plan: I will be acquiring a SBS made ODST kit. I also plan on doing a simple "instructor" impression from the live-action commercial and I'm going to attempt the dress uniform.
Costuming experience: I've worked off and on over the years on various simple projects. Everything from a custom Mandalorian to a post-apocalypse mercenary. I'm not great at reproduction but so fine on my own custom stuff. I paint moderately well, but I mostly deal in spray can, I don't have any experience with an air brush. I have zip for experience with Pepakura or foam building for the most part.
