I'm the new kid on the block when it comes to prop making and costume design. If I start asking a million and one questions just know that I'm not trying to be annoying; it's just that for the most part I have no idea what I'm doing, but that's Ok. Most people when they start something new have no idea what they are doing, unless that person is Chuck Norris, because Chuck Norris doesn't need a costume to be cool: he just is.
