I don't really know what to put here so I guess I'll cover all the bases.

About me:
Where to start... I'm an aspiring artist, outdoors-man, reader, writer, painter, sculptor, and borderline hardcore nerd (minus the borderline part that is).

Aside from my day-job which I loathe for the most part I own a custom props and costume business which I hope to one day have stabilized enough that I can just do that full time. I just got done buying a home in NE Albuquerque and am in the process of renovating the garage there to this end. By the end of the year I should also have a small blacksmith shop set up on the property as well.

I'm not very good at writing self-summaries so if there is more you want to know about just ask!

I'm constantly working to keep things moving forward so my life will never get stagnant. Slowly working at trying to get established in the costume field. Its a tough industry but once you make a name for yourself and continue to produce quality work its smooth sailing. Its all about building a reputation.

I'm currently working full time in order to put away money for my props business so that's where I spend the majority of my time. However, when I get some time for myself I've been restoring an old boat so that I can spend my weekends out on the lake and away from the city. The change of scenery will be a nice repose from day to day life.

I have turned them in as they are popping up all over the place and must be others have too. Hopefully the mods will clear them out soon. Thanks MC hope you feel better. Once again I am sorry for hyjacking your intro ketariniii.

To the original poster: GREAT intro - well done.

Do your props specialize in a particular era? And I thought props need to be close to movie / TV production facilities, otherwise the transport costs put you at a huge disadvantage due to shipping costs. (Time of delivery as well, I'd guess.)

I am NOT trying to advise you. I'm trying to learn.

ketariniii for some reason it would seem that bots have picked your into as a place to place their ads. The Mods came along and have removed two of them thus far. So you really did not miss much.
