The 405th Infantry Division promotes the development of artistic skills and the honing of artistic talent through the creation of Halo® costumes and props. They accomplish this by providing makers and cosplayers a global community in which they can share their knowledge and experience, which in turn nurtures and sustains their passion for the Halo® universe.
Starting out in 2007 as a community message board, the 405th has accumulated over 30,000 members worldwide and is the premier location to learn how to build high quality hard armor cosplay at home with little to no professional equipment. It is entirely volunteer run. They now have multiple social media outlets for communication that are very active, including: their main forum, Facebook group and Discord. As well as their newest venture into the streaming world of Twitch TV!
