** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

Hello,
I was reading this forum for a while and I am really impressed with some builds people show here. This is my first post and I would like to introduce myself a bit.
I am 38 year old IT analyst. I live in Toronto, Canada. Although I am not new to model building, I don't have much experience and still can be considered newbie.
I finally have some time, money and space to build Star Wars models.
My collection:


Here are some of my 'completed' builds - I know they are nothing compare to some builds people show here but I thought I'd still attach them...

Hey Guys and Gals...
I am an avid "Action Movie Buff" and am very interested in the replica and costumes...that are created... Always looking for Ideas.

Hi y'all,
I've already posted a few times on here, and so thought it time that I did so here, to this introductory thread.
Born and reared, in rural, north central Kentucky, the only other thing than the natural world that I was entranced by was movies and TV. Being an artsy sort, what most caught my eye has been the "other cast members" - the props.
The thing is, while I like what I've seen, as an artisan, I'ld rather have things that more suite me. (As can be seen by my work on Djinni bottles.)

Hi, I'm from Iowa, currently in Afghanistan.

I don't build much, since I'm rarely at home, but I do like purchasing, since most people are much more skilled than I am. I know my limits, art is not one of my skill sets. I really like the Magneto helmets Racer Mach X builds, but I can never get a hold of him.

SloeDjinn ~ Nice picture of Harvey and Me! Of all movie props of all time, if I could own one, it would be that painting. I have searched extensively for it, and actually got an email from someone once who sent me pictures and said they bought it at an estate sale. Unfortunately, the email went into my junk folder and by the time I replied three months later, I got no response from the sender. Search continues...

My brother is a member of this site and introduced me to it. I am a huge Star Wars fan and have two children a boy 6 and a girl 4 that are also Star Wars Fans. Last year I made a custom Jedi Custom from scratch because the ones that I was finding didn't have the quality that I wanted and I wanted to do some customizing to it. Since then I have gotten into movie props since putting together pieces for my custom that I couldn't make. This looks like a really cool site and am looking forward to seeing everything that everyone has to offer.

Thanks for the hospitality and expertise,

Ohhai guys.

I've been browsing this forum for a while, and I'm glad to have registered. Looking at all these builds has inspired me to try my own projects, and the amount of resources for doing so on here are astounding.

Thanks~

Hello all,
I've been an avid builder of just about everything since as far back as i can remember. I'm currently a member of other prop making sites, but those are more specific to one genre. Upon finding this site I realized that this is the site for me.
Looking forward to showing off some of my items!

Good morning. My name is Chris, I live about 15 miles east of Syracuse. The Stiletto from The Expendables is what got me interested in movie props. Although I like the movie and all, if I was to collect items specific to a few movies it would be the Indiana Jones movies. I have been playing around with the Oxley map and Mutt's letter, while researching to do a grail diary. I hope this breaks the ice, thanks for looking.

Hello All!
I found this site by doing a search for a replica of the Skele-Gro bottle used in the Harry Potter films. My kids and I are making a witch's potion bottle cabinet and thought that bottle would make a great addition to our collection.

We like DIY projects as it's something fun to do together but some props are way more advanced than our skills! We have found some fabulous ideas here and everyone seems so friendly. We're gettng some awesome tips and can't wait to see what else is on here!

Hello RPF!
My name is Craig. I'm 37 years old. Born and raised in Michigan. Married with 4 kids. Star Wars Fanatic and anything else pretty much Sci-Fi/Fantasy related.
I've ran across this site a few months back while doing research for my quest to become a 501st member. I've gotten a few pieces together for my Galactic Marine, and when searching out how to make some of the gear/props that's how I found this site. I actually looked into Prop building nearly 20 years ago when I was looking at colleges. Now I'm kinda kicking myself for not doing so. Live and learn.

hello all. My name is Terry and discovered this site a few months ago while looking up props for movies, most notably x-men props. The stuff i have seen on here is aces and thought it time to join up.

Hi, I'm zander. I'm curently a prop maker with a degree in industrial design. Recently I have been taking comissions and logging them via blog. I will post them here someday. I absolutely love making sci-fi guns from movies, games, etc.

I'm 23, recent gradute, and live in beautiful southern california.

Hi! i joined a month ago, and i still havent made any props yet. i have made quite a few ligtsabers in the past (crappy lightsabers). i am going to make some films and props whit my friends.

Hello everyone! I'm Jason and my son whom is 5, is a big Star Wars fan. We are looking to start a Han in Carbonite project, to get a movie theatre started, among other items. This site is perfect for projects for us and I am trying to teach him the pleasure and give him the experience of creating anything he desires. Plus HIC on a wall is pretty friggin cool, right???

Hey guys! Im a newer prop collector and thought Id join a site dedicated more to just that focus. Ive been on RebelScum for years and have a lot of trade/sales and feedback there. Im looking forward to being a part of this community and learning more about the props arena.

Thanks!

Derek

Hello Guys!

Been lurking for a few years, and when registrations opened up I decided to join up. Heard about this site from some RPF members, told me to check it out a few years ago and been lurking ever since. My favorites are Predator, Rocketeer, Aliens, Guyver well pretty much any sci-fi.

Thank you to everyone who contributes to this great community, and I hope to add to it myself.

Hey, my friend recommended this site for prop building. But the problem is i never made a prop in my life. I would like to start though, i don't know what type of project i should start with. Any ideas? I thought of Fallout props, but their WAY to difficult for a starter like me.

Hello All.

I came across this forum via the BFX videos on youtube. I've always wanted to create my own movie props, but never thought I could do it.

After lurking for the last few days - I definitely have some ideas.

This is going to be awesome!

Thank you all for the information.

Ken
