Re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **
Hello everyone! My name's Jason, and I'm a newcomer to all prop making stuff. I've been looking around for a while for something to channel my creativity into, and I think I've finally found something I can do that with. I went to my first real Con experience last month and have decided building and showing off my own stuff is too much fun to miss.
As far as interests go, I'm into most of the big name shooter games, like Halo, COD, MoH, and the Mass Effect games. I'm also a big fan of Star Wars, and want to eventually get into building stuff for each of these interests. My number one goal is to have a respectable costume put together by Dragon Con, as I'm probably going to be going down there with some friends this year. If that doesn't work, then I'll at least have it ready by the local sci-fi convention later on this year.
I've been doing a lot of research on the Shepard Armor from Mass Effect 3, but, I recently came across a new idea that I might work on from scratch from that game, the
Talon Mercenary Engineer. The instant I unlocked him he became my fav multiplayer class, and I've already got some pretty good ideas on how to build it.
Other stuff I plan on doing later on is a Halo armor suit, probably from Reach as that's the game I started on and the one I feel most attached to, or possibly a set of the cadet armor from the Forward Unto Dawn movies. Also would like to put together a Republic Commando suit from Star Wars, with some less armored character builds in the Star Wars universe to boot.
