So, I was talking to tonight, and he said that he'd always wished there was a 501st-like legion[link] organization for Warhammer 40,000. I've had similar thoughts in the past, and I'm sure others have, too. If any of you know of a pre-existing website, forum, or organization for 40K cosplay please tell me, but I don't think anyone has tried it yet.

So, our idea: make a forum to collect all the varied information, tutorials, reference pictures, and bits of wisdom what few 40K cosplayers there are have picked up, and put it all in one place. It would make it much easier for beginners to make their first guardsman or commissar costume, and for masters to make Grey Knight armor. Tentatively, it would be divided into three sections: Imperial Guard, Inquisition, and Space Marines. Maybe a Mutants, Heretics, and Xenos section for all you traitors out there. That should cover the most popular factions and sub-factions.

Would any of you be interested in joining such a forum? What about contributing information or ideas? Do you think I'm crazy? Hate the idea of sharing a forum with mere guardsmen? Give me your input!

The board is up! I'm still sorting a lot of the stuff out, so tell me either here or there if there is something wrong, something you want changed, or something added. Be sure to pop into the introductions thread!
