Do you have links to pictures of works in progress and finished pieces? (honestly its hard to gauge someone's skill without examples ^_~ even if you're a master at it, people won't know till you show them your work!)
I'm going to endeavor to create my own props for the next two years, but I may want to pick your brain for ideas or solutions to problems I come up against if that's okay! (I'm going the layered cardboard route since I have sadly no wood-working or metal-working skills to speak of...and I know I can do awesome stuff with paper, cardboard and lots of glue!)
