Hello, my name is J.D.

I'm a bartender in NYC and have always been fascinated with makers. I'm a big Mythbusters fan and have been a member of Tested.com since it's creation. Since they were bought by Mythbusters, Adam Savage has mentioned RPF in every single video and podcast he has done and I just HAD to finally check you guys out. This is nothing short of fantastic! I love seeing what everyone is building!

Hey there! I'm more interested in the production of props and I am a novice at the craft!
I'm currently researching good armor making techniques.

Talk to you all soon!

Hi People

Hi all, been into this stuff for ages. Made 2 Mattel boards from BTTF and half way through The Pitbull. Im also doing some hardcore research on the 2015 Mc Fly Jacket. I've worked it all out in my head and think i can do it. just need some spare time lol. But, the boards first. got another 3 to make. The plans have been draw up, just gotta start them. I've set myself a target to get all boards and jacket done by October 21st 2015 04:29!! any tips, advice, plans that anyone has that can help me achieve my goal on time would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

My names David and not much more to say than I joined because I am a huge movie geek and love props and remnants of all kinds.

Right now I'm interested particularly in Dune, Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, pretty much anything Tim Burton

Great to be here

Hello,
I have been interested in building since making PC's with my Father back in the stone ages.
I have never really thought of a resource like this until I listened to Adam Savage talk about how useful this Forum has been to him. I hope to try and reignite that passion I once had.

I look forward to getting my hands dirty again.
Respectfully,
Michael

Greetings all,

I have watched the RPF for a while and am pleased to join the ranks of such talented makers. I am a novice but I hope to learn to create in such staggering detail and ingenuity as those I've seen here.

Cheers

Hello Andy and welcome; I'm new here too. I couldn't agree more with you about this being heaven; I never dreamed that I would be able to find so many talented people who make such beautiful works of art. Not to mention that it's all for sale too :lol It's nice to associate with others that have the same interests and talents; makes me glad to be a part of this forum too

Hi! I mostly make replica costumes but I'm looking to get into props as well. I've made Illyria from Whedon's Buffyverse, Leeloo from the Fifth Element, and Morrigan from Marvel vs Capcom or Darkstalkers. I'm definitely most attached to/proud of Illyria... so much blood (actual bleeding happened), tears, and sweat went into it. I also hand dye wigs for cosplay and am making a Sister of Plenitude (cat nurse from Doctor Who) costume for a friend this October. I joined RPF to admire others' talent, learn new skills from the many who are so much more talented than I am, and ask advice when I can't figure out how to make something!View attachment 113913

View attachment 113914
I hand-dyed that Leeloo wig using orange (about 4) and yellow (only 1) Sharpies (in the movie Leeloo's roots are yellow) and later added hair gel to get the dirty effect Milla's hair has in the movie. I also made the multipass I'm holding... scaled and printed a picture from the internet and then laminated it onto the plastic card I use to clock in at work

In the pic of Illyria (and Wesley... his costume is less distinct. He should have been carrying a leather-bound tome or a glass of scotch) the costume is not actually finished. I later added red leather covers for the combat boots and re-did the gold gauntlets so they extend higher up my arm.

Hello Members,
I live in Dunwoody Georgia and work in the security field. I enjoy creating 1:6 scale props from the Indiana Jones movies. I've created a 1:6 scale grail diary with leather cover and inserts and leap of faith painting. Got others in the works, so stay tuned for details and pictures. I collect vintage Hot Wheels, Indiana Jones movie props and LEGO. Just discovered this great site so I have a lot of reading to do.

Hello, my name is Ryan. I've been lurking for a few days since I stumbled across some amazing cosplay work by others, which in some roundabout way brought me here, a treasure trove of artists and clever folks. I'm a nursing student, I've been a gamer/nerd since I was a wee lad, and I'm basically illiterate when it comes to art. I live in a small, middle-of-nowhere town in Texas, tucked away in the hills between Dallas and Houston.
I decided to try my hand at doing a piece or two, and I actually started working on the planning/concept stages the other day. If anyone has any advice for someone just getting into the craft, please pass it my way.

Howdy! My name is Victor. I live in San Clemente, CA. I've been lurking on the forums for a while and I've been very inspired by everyone's great work.

I've made a set of samurai armor out of plastic from trash cans and this year I'm working on some COG armor. Also my 8 year old son wants to be Drobot from the Skylanders game and that's been a lot of fun.

Well I'll be creating some build posts soon, keep up the great work.
