Other: A fan of cosplay, been wanting to do cosplays for a long time but due to a lack of confidence and space at home I have difficulty making other costumes.
Was a huge fan of the franchise ever since I was 4, played Halo 1 with my uncle on the PC together, although between Halo Reach and Halo 4 my former group of school friends basically harassed and bullied me so often to the point I dropped away from the franchise entirely. My interest returned after a friend of mine convinced me to come back and give it a try, although this time on the PC.

Name: Michael "Sudsy"
Profession: Mechanical Design Drafter (AutoCAD, Inventor, Solidworks...)
Age: 37
Favorite Hobby: Tabletop wargames, video games, making tanks out of paper
Favorite part of halo: Halo 1 has one of the best soundtracks ever... I have been known to leave the intro screen (on PC) running just for that while building models at my workbench.
Favorite Halo: 1 & 2, because I'm that old...
Favorite Video Game: Skyrim (currently), Halo, Mass Effect (1 thru 3)
Other Interests: 40K and similar tabletop games (lately those more than the PC or console, something about dice clacking while moving nicely painted miniatures around the tabletop battlefield... Did I mention making 28mm miniature scale tanks out of paper?
Favorite Food: Beef and corn
Favorite Band: Demon Hunter
Favorite Movie: Army of Darkness

I was interested in Pepakura a few years back, got frustrated, but figured I had to come back after making a handful of paper armored vehicles and developing my skills a bit more. I finally paid for a copy of Tamasoft's incredible paper design software and decided it was high time to get back to it with the 1:1 scale stuff along with my 1:56th (28mm miniature) scale vehicles! Halo has a great tactical aesthetic that I've always enjoyed ever since it first came out back in 2004 (well, that was when I first saw it at any rate). That whole connection with Aliens and similarities just clicked so well (thank you the late great Al Matthews for both roles in Aliens and Halo...).
