These are but a few of the various projects I have worked on over the years. Some of these were in a team environment and others on my own.
This is my personal custom armor cosplay based upon the popular video game series Halo by Microsoft, Bungie and 343 Industries.
This was 64 pages of the torso scaled and printed, scored, cut and in the process of being glued together.
This Armor set debuted for the first time at DragonCon in Atlanta in 2013. Since this time it has been featured in multiple outlets including the 2017 Men VS. Cosplay Calendar. Gravity Hammer prop used courtesy of Jim McCrea of Stony Props and Icon Props.

Halo: Reach - EOD
I don't often create art for myself but this became a 3 year personal journey with over 700 hours of labor and craftsmanship. I was turned onto some pretty amazing software which lead me to a community of people that I am proud to be a part of today. I now have some amazing friends all over the globe and have been fortunate enough to meet many of them because of this hobby.
This Helmet was modeled by Devin Bobadilla and 3D printed by Walter Marlin. Cleanup of 3D Prints takes a lot of time so those who think 3d printing is cheating have another thing coming.
For this i decided a split mold was best. A clay up for the first half can be seen here. Large acorn nuts were used for locking keys.
This Photo wound up on Halowaypoint.com in a Community Update.

Halo 4 - HAZOP
A second set of armor for myself that brought me into molding and casting and foam fabrication. Over 200 hours of fabrication went into this personal piece and took me about 6 months.
These shells were cast for a concept armor set from real shells.
The original shells had some clay sculpted repairs before molding. These were cast in resin as actual shells are too heavy.
The final piece received printed graphics to complete the look of a functional clock. The wearer received a makeup mustache for the clock face hands.

Various Prop Projects
Some of these were commissions, others for family, and some are items I currently sell on my Etsy Shop!
