The last few years have taken a toll on being able to create new and artistic elements. Between health issues and “old school” prop building falling very distant to 3D printing in may areas, it is hard to justify sharing too much more of our time. We will still do sculpts and casting mask and

Light Years?

Been a pretty long time since an update. So why? Well, honestly, because I (Devlin) have been busy working during the day and earning my MBA at night. So not much free time, especially if you add in charity events. Since the last post, we have completed a Chewbacca, the first Solo version approved in

2018, the year of the Turtles

Can’t believe it’s been so long since the page has been updated. Not much has changed due to the winter months being slow for charity work and anything outside. We did take part in the Raleigh NC Christmas parade and just this weekend were invited to be at the NC ComiCon – Oak City. It

Star Wars Grand Moff Tarkin or Line Officer – 501st Approval for an average of $200 (if you don’t want to make anything)

Not often can we admit we made absolutely nothing in regards to any of our costumes or props. However, with 501st Legion there are a few outfits you can be approved with without having to put much work into it. While we like to share our builds here, we also enjoy sharing info and tips

WIP: MSE-6 aka Mouse Droid – Star Wars

Stef has always enjoyed the droids more than the people in the Star Wars movies. With that in mind, and thinking about our budget this time of year, we decided to go for a less commonly seen droid from the movies….the MSE-6 better known as the Mouse Droid. The droid is only about knee high

Nevermind the dust bunnies, we have a fuzz ball!

As previously spoken about, I have been working hard to finish a wookiee before Star Wars Celebration in Orlando, mid-April. I managed to finish the wookiee to the point 99.9% of the people would never know it still had some work to go. Managed to wear the suit for about 2 hours and could have

Tusken Raider – Bantha Rider

Having been heavily involved in the construction of the wookiee, there felt a need for a backup plan in case the suit was not ready for Star Wars Celebration. This was my self-impossed deadline, and maybe not the best for a first time wookiee builder, but I was/am determined. In the meantime, I contracted

Shadow of a Wookiee

It has been a desire to move into the Star Wars realm for a time and we have been pecking away at the Mandalorian Merc, however, it has been hard to stay motivated when there is not a strong community of support around you and honestly, the Mando presence is not as strong as the
