When researching ideas for our new business and learning some of the many techniques for replica prop making we quickly came across Punished Props. They are a husband & wife Seattle based prop and costume making team.
They have a large library of videos and blog articles on building techniques. Their YouTube channel is a storehouse of great tutorials and insights into their business and prop making in general. They cover everything from foam costumes, 3D printing, molding & casting, vacuum forming, and painting and everything in between.
The information is presented in a down to earth easy to understand manner making it great for first timers to the hobby and not feel over your head listening and watching.
The work that Bill and Britt do not only helps new people to the hobby but they are also a great inspiration for others looking to turn a hobby into a business.
