Hello!

I guess I am brand new to prop making.

I am a carpenter in a shop that produces sets for theatrical performance. I'm getting a bit bored and I want to broaden my skillset a bit, so here I am. I have a few projects in mind but I am a novice when it comes to casting, sculpting, and I guess the know how of properties. I am definitely hoping that I will find someone to reach out to in this community for advice. The project that I am the most excited to attempt would be recreating the Witch King of Angmar's flail. I am skilled with metal, wood, autocad, and I have a full shop at my disposal, I just need some guidance. Well that is about it, maybe someone will see this and say hello.

I'm excited to join the community and to get this new hobby going.

Hello everyone!

I'm new to the RPF so here goes an introduction. In 1997 my parents took me to see Star Wars A New Hope......I wasn't even 4 yet! It had a BIG impression on this kid, and I've been interested in films, and film props ever since! And incidentally my real name is Luke, so guess who my favorite character is!

Greetings,

My name is BioQuake, and I am new to prop-making.
I've always wanted to get into prop making though, but I guess I've just never really had the time for making anything that I would be satisfied with. With the news that I will be receiving a 3d printer soon, I have decided to go all out, and dive in head-first. I'm very excited to get started making props, as the processes behind the props seem very interesting to me.

Cheers.

Hey guys!

I'm new to the whole prop building side of cosplay and came across this site while looking for Loki Staff info. I can't wait to delve deeper into making props!

 

[revmarcus]

Hello, my name is Marcus, long time reader/lurker and I am going to start my first take on a prop replica shortly. The way everyday objects are used in building props is probably one of my favorite aspects.

FLIPPING AMAZING. We live in the PNW and I have made some costumes before with them or for them when they were younger. She is now 17, she can sew and she does Cosplay parties for kids...she is excited about this and truly, folks like TheLadyNerd thank you!

I discovered this site while looking for info on the weapons used in Clue the Movie. There's only a few threads on here but the info given was great. I'm collecting the weapons as a gift for my sister who is a huge fan of the movie.
Then I fell into the lightsaber wormhole after rediscovering a Heiland flash handle that my mother had found at an auction (apparently my uncle had found a Graflex in the same lot and sold it...ugh!). So now I'm on an additional quest to try to replicate the three ANH sabers.
If there are any closet Clue fans out there or anyone who'd like to help me on my saber quest feel free to reach out to me.

Hi, all,

So nice to be a member. I've lurked for a while marvelling at all the amazing talents here.

I'm an artist and illustrator and into all types of creating. I used to build theatre sets and props and I enjoy learning about new materials and processes.

Please bear with me as I learn my way around. I'm very much looking forward to meeting and interacting with you all.

Best,

Steve

Hi all!

I'm a long time lurker, having been impressed by the quality of work posted on these forums for years. I love to design and appreciate the time and effort others put into their designs, both professionals and amateurs alike!

Currently working on Nerf customisation and paint jobs, inspired by so many on here...
