    Hi all.....most of you know me since I have been a member here since 99'...anyway I am interested in finding out who all is in or around the Houston area....I thought it would be cool for us locals to get together and show off our props, projects we are working on or just hang out and meet some new people.

    I'm here and "Houston Robocop" is also here. "uscm buzz" lives in Richmond I think.

    The only cool meetings we get are the Houston Figure Modelers. They are all incredible artists!!

    Charles! Been ages since I've seen ya. I forgot you moved to Texas ... thought you were still an Okie.

    Pretty sad that you move to the same state I live in, and NOW you're too far away for get-togethers (sad that Texas is so big, you were closer when you lived in another state). Maybe we'll meet up again someday.

    Howdy,

    I&#39;m a member of a local modeler&#39;s group (Houston Figure Modeler). it&#39;s a mixture of very cool and talented artists, sculptors and modeler. (I&#39;m the prop guy in the group).

    We have a meeting in Houston usually around the second Saturday of each month, and we show-off stuff we&#39;re working on and stuff we&#39;ve just purchased, talk about movies and geek stuff, plus some finger food and beer too&#33;

    Anyone here interested in hanging out with us just shoot me a PM and I&#39;ll give you an invite.
    it&#39;s allot of fun if your interested in meeting like-minded people who shares interests in sci-fi models and prop stuff.

    I&#39;m in Fort Worth, TX. I&#39;d consider coming. The last local area prop party was ten months ago. Its time to consider another D/FW one too. The local craft brewery in Fort Worth said they could host us. They could provide the space, the tables, and free beer. Possibly free food.

    The downsides are that if we wanted a private party, it would have to be on a Tuesday or Wednesday. If we wanted it on Saturday, we have to be willing to have lookey-loos who are there for the regular tour and tasting from 1:00pm to 3:00pm Saturdays. Then again since it is at a brewery and subject to TABC law, no firearms, swords, knives, or other weaponry would be permissable. Though we could arrange an after-party party for those. Just an idea, I&#39;ve been wanting to run past some people.

    Yeah, the only prop parties around is up in Tulsa (in the summer time to coincide with Tulsa&#39;s Trek Con)

    Or up in Dallas around one of Plano&#39;s Comic Cons.

    No cool convention ever comes to Houston, but If there&#39;s enough interest..... I may host a prop party early next year (late Jan or feb).

    Nothing major but just a informal get-together so area prop guys and meet new people and introduce themselfs.

    No pressure to bring lots of cool props or anything, jut bring yourself and hang out with other local propers.

    Reply here if you&#39;re interested in attending a prop party here locally so I can see if there is enough people for a little party.

    Are you guys ostly collectors or builders? The only "prop" to my credit so far is a kill bill tsuba(sword guard) that I made to fit the Paul Chen production blades. Just for people who wanted to add a kill bill flair to their katana....

    I used to go hunting near George West when I was a kid. My Uncle and Cousins live down there.

    The Houston Figure Modelers are a great group. They have some of the best sculpters around.
