This. Is. Absolutely Amazing!!!!!!!!! Keep up the good work and may the force be with you! I can't wait to see the end result

 

[DandyBrit]

Really nice stuff. I wish I had the ability to do exactly like the ideas I can see in my head - never seems to look like what I imagined.

 

[JCO]

Great job. Some of those things look like you stole them off the movie set.

 

[matrixmom]

Yes they look pretty authentic!! Your workshop is my envy too.

That Vader costume reminds me of one I put together in the 1980s. I pieced it together over a five-month deployment to NAS Sigonella, Italy, and on Halloween night, there I was running around Sicily in a full-up Vader costume from the helmet to the boots.

When we came home, we had to go through a customs inspection at NAS Jacksonville, and the first box I put up for inspection had parts of my Vader suit in it. The gal from customs asked "what's in this box?" and I said "A Darth Vader suit." She laughed and said "sure it does... open it up." When I opened the lid there was the cape, shoulder armor, helmet, and chest and belt packs. I asked if she wanted me to open the rest of my stuff, and she asked if I had anything illegal. I said no, and she said "I believe anything you tell me now. Have a nice day."

Holy sheep ****. I see the 3D printer and all of the goodies in your work shop.

OK, so what do you do for a living?

 

[Frightshow]

Hey TZ-

Thanks so much! There will be more to share as the year goes on! Stay tuned!

You should get into lightsaber building.

You should get into lightsaber building.

Totally! That's a real artform actually. The ones I've done for the Halloween props are super cheapies - but work as static props:

That is hilarious! A new loophole discovered in our security procedures - confuse and distract with Star Wars props! Great story!

Hey Matrix Mom! Glad to see you again! How did 2015 go? Amazing as always I'm sure - we had a great time with our Pirate theme last year and had a blast. Neighbors wouldn't leave until almost midnight and I was running to pull everything in before the rain hit. All in all was good!

We should start a workshop thread - it would be great to see everybody's set up (and working messes) Does one already exist?

 

[Frightshow]

Have some new updates to share - I'll post some more build photos soon as well.
