I suppose it’s no secret that I’m a pretty big Bioshock fan. Infinite is just around the corner and I’m really looking forward to all the props that game will open up to me, but before that there was one thing still in Rapture I wanted to have a crack at building.If you’re like me [...]

I’m a bit behind on updates – there are still two full armor costumes from 2012 that I haven’t written up yet! That said, here’s a more recent project with a bit shorter (hah!) write-up that I hope will tide people over in the meantime while I chip away at my backlog. Sophitia’s Elk Shield. [...]

Since I made a set of Banded Iron Armor for my Dragon*Con 2012 costume, I decided I wanted to build a shield to go with the matched set. There are all sort of amazing and intricate shields in Skyrim, but unfortunately I only had about three days to make mine… so I chose something a [...]

I was commissioned recently to make a replica of the Terrible Shotgun (aesthetically identical to the Combat Shotgun) from Fallout 3 and New Vegas. If you’ve seen my previous AER-9 builds you know I’m a pretty big fan of the Fallout universe, and the Terrible Shotgun was a piece I’d wanted a chance to build [...]

2013 commission requests are now OPEN! I have been keeping the books shut on next year for a while, and for a very specific reason. For the 2013 schedule, I will handling commission requests a little differently. This album on my Facebook page currently contains a list of things I would be very interested in [...]

Continuing with the Skyrim trend, but not a helmet this time! There are all sorts of intricate and complicated weapons in Skyrim, but the Steel weapons – low level though they may be – possessed a very cool concentric circle pattern to them that I thought looked particularly awesome. When a client asked me if [...]

So I’ve been on a bit of a Skyrim kick recently. I’ve completed several projects from the world of Tamriel which will be popping up on this blog in the next few weeks, but the first one I’d like to feature from my latest build bonanza is the Helm of Yngol. The image below is [...]

About three years ago when I was first getting started in the whole propmaking thing, the guys from Destructoid.com asked me to make a big mascot head for them to wear at conventions and such. I had no idea what I was doing, but the finished piece looked pretty good despite weighing 10lbs and being [...]

Several months ago I got an email from a my friend Art Andrews asking if I would be interested in taking part in a very, very cool project. At Star Wars Celebration, a convention held in Orlando, there have been past exhibitions where artists were given Vader and Stormtrooper helmets, then allowed to modify them [...]

About a month ago I was wrapping up my Skyrim Female Ancient Nord/Draugr Helmet project, and posted some of the progress over at my facebook page. One of the people commenting on the progress had a profile picture of them wearing a fantastic Dovahkiin costume, which got the gears turning… While finished props sitting on [...]
