Man I wish I joined this before the weekend you guys look so good! Did you do a meetup every day? I was only in armor on Friday unfortunately

 

[RageGoblin]

It was so nice to meet you guys on Friday. Thank you for the advance on wiring and how to deck out my helmet with fans and sound. I am looking forward to finishing my print and start trying to figure out how to attach the pieces to me. Hopefully, we will meet again at DragonCon this year, if anyone is going.

We usually have a large group that goes to Dragoncon every year. A thread should be posted closer to the event date, but we do have threads from previous years you can explore to see what we've done there in the past.

I know it's been a week since the event but I wanted to give a proper thank you to everyone that made this thing happen.

AugmentedHuman013 , Yager, and Jocko03 thank you for all of your hard work making this thing happen. Jocko, your booth set was absolutely phenomenal! You guys all did so much work this past weekend and I want you to know that is does not go unnoticed. You guys always make me feel right at home in the southern regiment. I'm so glad I was able to come after all.

And to all the other folks that were able to come, KaeSpoon SpartanSweed Ulfhedinn073 DRChefboyRD Catthew H5iskindaundr8d RealDunceGamer and anyone I don't know the @ of, some of which I know well and some of which I met for the first time this past weekend; It was a pleasure to be with each and every one of you! I'm so happy we were able to get together and show off out cosplays together. It was a blast.

Thanks again for a great weekend!

Couldn't have said it better myself, Nate.

I want to thank every single one of you for the hard work and dedication you've shown over the weekend. The booth and the aura around it was perfect, and I know we introduced a lot of folks into our wonderful community during Megacon. I am so glad to be a part of the 405th and make connections with all of you, you are all so warm and welcoming and I enjoy the moments we share together.

Jocko; thank you so much for your assistance, patience, and kindness when I decided to come down last minute. I wouldn't have been able to make it down there if you did not extend your hand to help. I also want to thank Nate for troubleshooting with me mere days before the con so I could figure out how to get myself and my armor down there safely.

You are all so wonderful, and I hope we get a chance to run into each other again soon.
