Hi folks

My name is Mike and I live in Drogheda, Ireland with my wife and son. I'm a member of the Emerald Garrison since last year and slowly and gradually building my costumes - and (hopefully) skills!

Cheers!

Hello All

I am GM2 and just starting out with interest in props and excited to start a cool collection to pass on to my kids someday.

Hello

Just watched Adam Savages Tested on You tube and thought to check out the sight and was blown away by everyone's builds and advices. Had to register.
 
Re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

I found this place a long time ago while looking for Tron stuff to make a collection. Then I lingered around and found out this has a great community!! I fell in love with collecting replicas and props! Then I joined and bought some stuff from here but never made any posts.

A little about myself: I love rock climbing, white water rafting, cliff diving, hiking, camping...etc. I have a passion for sportbike riding. Been doing it for almost two years.

I love making Gundam models when I have the time...I also play ps3 sometimes too.

I am a paint tech at WM in my local town. Two years experience.

I have a girlfriend and she has two kids of her own that I adore as much as I love her :) we are a happy family.

My name is Kyle!

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

Greetings, one and ALL! Been on the board for a while lurking, but I guess its time to get into the light, after four years being a "New Member." Time to get rid of the New Member banner that is on my screen.

The name is acrylikhan, and I have been helping others make props for their costumes for the past 12 years. Professionally, I am a model maker by day working in the prototype industry. Most of what I do is pattern finishing, deco painting and urethane casting. Every once in a while I get to do some CAD work, and play around with the 3D Printer.

Currently, I am constructing a full scale NSD Red Supreme Dalek from Doctor Who, a Classic EARTHSHOCK Cyberman, and eventually, I will get back to my Star Wars Biker Scout. A friend of mine is getting me back into Star Wars Prop building with a Thermal Detonator Project. I had done one in the past, but I found that my dimensions were off, and sold it a few years back. So my friend is asking me to redo it...well, more like, I'm helping her by making myself re-do the project.

I will probably will do more lurking than posting. I noticed posts get lost in the shuffle pretty quickly. And besides, I gotta find a place to load pictures so that they will display here!

Hey Guys,

Long time viewer, first time commenting. A little bit of myself... I enjoy all things cooking, crafting, Star Wars, and my little miniature pinscher Ein. This weekend I'm going to attempt my very first Pepakura (Boba Fett's helmet).

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

Hi everyone! new here.

A bit about me is that I am a big fan of the Oceans/Bourne/Bond series as well as many other action and mystery movies. One thing I have been wanting to recreate was some sort of limitless NZT display.
 
Re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

Hi all,

Only recently found the forum after watching a tested.com podcast, and I'm amazed at how fantastic the creations on here are.... Very inspiring. I'm still looking about, but have seen a couple of things that I might possibly try and build.

I'm in the UK and a big fan of Sci-Fi/Fantasy... All the usual suspects.

An interesting journey lies ahead.
 
Re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

Hi, I just registered, i have been making budget costumes mostly for Halloween since i don't do cons of any sort. So far I've done costumes as Kakashi from Naruto, A WoW death knight, and Luffy from one piece. I just started on this year's costume which is gonna be Ironman. Nice too meet you all.
 
Re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself as I'm new here.

I'm Tom, 35, married to a VERY patient and supportive wife who encourages me to indulge my geekiness. We have two kids and life is settled to the point where we can dedicate a decent amount of time to collecting and costuming.

We have a fair few props and replicas, from LotR, Doctor Who, Star Wars, Star Trek and The Dark Knight. Also have a replica of Obi Wan's costume from Episode III and am just setting up getting started on my Dredd movie costume. I have the Helmet ordered but will need all the help and advice I can get with all the rest - please don't be shy in getting in touch!

Hope to get to know you all better soon, anyone want to get in contact, please feel free :)

Take care guys,

Tom

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

I just joined - Hello everyone! I've been enjoying seeing all of the different methods people use to make their props and costumes.
 
Re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

hello! My name is Joseph Bradley. I am from Michigan, USA. I have been "Lurking" on the rpf for some time now and have finally decided to take the plunge. I had never heard of this forum until I started listening to Adam Savage and Co.'s podcasts at Tested.com and I thought it would be a great place to visit. I have a list half a mile long of things I'd like to make, but find it dang near impossible to get motivated to get a project started. Hoping that by associating with y'all that I'll be able to overcome that.
Anyway, glad to be here.
 
Re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

Hey all

I heard about this site after listening to Still Untitled, Adam Savage's Podcast, loved the Scifi movies since I was a kid and always wanted my own version of the props, used to put airfix Star Trek ships together as a kid, then crudly melt battle damage into them.

Studied both Product Design and Architecture at University in the UK, and am now a Part 1 Qualified Architect, although I seem to have got stuck working for a Kitchen Manufacturer, however I have a passion for designing and model making.

Spend most of my time on this site looking through everyones projects trying to build up a knowledge base on how to produce things I want to make, as I've got lots of gaps in my prop making skills.
 
Re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

Hey, my name is Ray and I live in Texas. Recently saw an Adam Savage video and thought I'd come check out the forum. I love making stuff, and love watching others make stuff.
