GUITARS, Prop Design and OTHER Fabrication

FABRICATION: ART, IMAGINATION & SCIENCE

As a skilled prop fabricator, 3D artist, and versatile maker, I specialize in bringing imaginative concepts to life through meticulous craftsmanship and technical expertise.    Whether crafting intricate props for film, theater, or experiential marketing, my work combines creativity, problem-solving, and precision to achieve stunning, functional results. Proficient in a range of materials and techniques, I seamlessly blend traditional handcrafting methods with modern tools like 3D printing, CNC machining, and laser cutting. My experience spans creating one-of-a-kind items, from detailed miniatures to large-scale installations, ensuring that every project reflects the highest standards of artistry and durability.

In addition to fabrication, I leverage advanced 3D modeling skills to design and visualize pieces with exceptional accuracy, utilizing industry-standard software like Blender, ZBrush, and Autodesk Maya. My expertise extends to texturing, rendering, and preparing assets for physical production or digital applications, ensuring seamless integration across mediums. With a passion for innovation and collaboration, I thrive in dynamic environments where I can adapt to creative challenges, contribute to a shared vision, and deliver compelling, tangible results that elevate storytelling and design.

Project "ANDYCASTER": A one-off replica of andy SUMMERS FAMED 1961 FENDER TELECASTER

Here is the finished instrument after many hours of assembly, painting, and set-up. I took some liberties with mine to make it more playable than a real 1961 and added the convenience of a 22nd fret.

        This video was created to show how I achieved the look of an old-style cathode ray tube television's gray screen appearance when using a modern black "at-rest" LCD monitor.
