starting off new to 405th and proper cosplaying

[masterdude13579]

I am new to the 405th European regiment though i have already enjoyed my time here and on the discord. i will be posting updates on things i make and do that are halo related on this thread please feel free to give constructive criticism and post any ideas you think might help as well

so the first thing i will be making is a flag and flag stand i have found two images that are of red vs blue and edited them to suit though i do not have the copyright to these images i believe i have altered them enough to be ok for personal use. i have left the main design largely untouched though the entire image needed making more defined as the scaling was not great i believe the origional image was only an 800x800 jpeg which i have scaled to be 1000mm x 1500mm i will be sticking them back to back so that i dont have to make 2 stands and i can not have to deal with picking a side ahahah

So the flag it’s self is finished now. They are stuck back to back all I need to do now is machine stitch the edges to stop them fraying and I just need to make the stand for it and that build will be complete.

Yea, that flag looks awesome! (It'd look even better if both sides were red)
What material is it made from? And good luck with the ODST

The cutting out is finally done and I can start putting it together. I know cutting it all out was a bad move but it lets me put it together slowly at work while I have nothing to do on and off
