In this section I have decided to display my active projects as a way to illustrate alternative constructive applications to a costume. This design was based off of the character Boba Fett from Star Wars and was an exercise that took up to a year to complete (in-between work and collage)
I wanted to create this as a way to develop my understanding of armour and props. Taking the thematic and overall rustic/weathered science fiction look of the films and create an authentic character that would fit into the Mandalorian culture.
The fabric elements of this costume was a mixture of recycled cloths and materials to create a layered look that draws parallels to the nomads of the eastern regions, roaming the deserts. Taking this outlook from the in-universe Tuskin Raiders, utilising a scavenged, heavy layered fabric look.
The armour was created by a long prosses of 3D printing. each section was up to six hours of printing time. After the initial models were made I applied spot/knifing putty to act as a filler to then sand out the layering lines of the model. The sections were then primed with a black base to then apply silver. Sections were then masked up and the coloured elements were applied and sanded to create a weathered metallic look. I then applied a watered acrylic airbrush over the sections to create a stained look and pronounce a greater depth in the armour, and subsequently create a used look. This is equipment and is used on the regular, so natural ware and tare is expected.
I was happy overall with the presentation of this costume, however in future I might redo the metallic paint, in favour of more of a chrome look. I would also redesign the thigh pieces to be larger and have a more interesting shape. This prosses allows myself to then set into creating a new costume, building upon what worked and what I could expand further.
I wanted to tell a story with this costume. I wanted to illustrate the journey of this character and include small elements that, to this character, creates meaning and sets the characters development into motion. I wanted him to be a gunslinger a character that is defined by his own laws and reforms a sense of duty, he's an honourable rough. Each dent and scratch of paint could tell a story, you can tell by the costume that he knows the game, he knows what's at stake. I included a small crystal necklace (Made out of resin) which acts as a memento, a moment that defines his character. Possibly a promise. Or a warning
The Trainspotter Series is a personal project I'm working on at the present time. Me and a few friends from www.zoom-in.org decided to get together and do a group exhibition, and the theme is the railways.
Its funny to think that now I'm a spotter of the trainspotter!
My journey too photographing nothing and the things that surround me and people I love starts with this picture of my room.
This is a three minute study where I limited my palet to three colours and refused myself any other instruments but my fingers. I used blue for the shadows, red for the middle tones and magnolia for the highlights.

Well my personal project is really starting to come together now. The car is currently over at the HellaFab garage getting her pipes done. Everything from 3" full vband exhaust, to charge piping, and manifold and DP have been created by Matt. All the work looks excellent and I can't wait to see this thing really put in work this season :-) There is about 5 days left of fabrication then shes off to paint!
So today I went to an arranged date with my friend and her boyfriend Sean who was my model, My friend brought her daughter Camille along who let me take her picture and thanks to her confidence for letting me photograph her without her wig, doesn't she look gorgeous! These were taken at various locations around the town in Stirling and inside the old arcade and the thistle shopping center I am very happy with the results and the photos above are my favorite out of the many I took.
This is a final piece from a project I have recently started. This project is based on communication and how the use of phones and technology have ruined our concept of face to face communication. I used Hieroglyphics as an inspiration for my own hand rendered font.
