Owner and operator of Dragonfyre Designs. Over the years I first made high end props and costumes for professional and competitive cosplayers. As the need and demand for this began to wane especially during and after the lockdowns during the pandemic the focus of the business pivoted to doing 3d printed collectible character statues, which I currently do for private collectors.
Main duties were accurate cutting of fabric to customers requested lengths, some light register duties and opening and closing duties. Closing duties included sweeping/vacuuming and mopping as needed, restocking of notions and materials, and locking of doors at end of shift.
Did a range of fabrication of hand props used on film and television productions. Main focus was Star Trek Voyager the final two seasons. Responsible for original prop fabrication using shop tools such as Vacuum Forming, Silicone mold making, urethane resin casting, professional grade finishing paint work. Also used metal lathes, drill press, and high speed polishers. Was lead fabricator of hero brainwashing prop for the Ben Stiller film Zoolander. Utilized skill and knowledge of traditional sculpting and styrene hand fabrication to create a variety of props and costume pieces.
