Medieval Project

Greetings,

  To indulge my love of Medieval reenactment I decided to build a Medieval Crossbowman Pavise. A large shield used by crossbowmen in the Middle Ages for castle seiges and other battle field defenses.

 It was my very first attempt at anything like this and of course I learn from my mistakes. But, all in all I was pleased with the result. It still needs painting and final touch ups and it will be ready to use. Many questions were asked of me: Why do you want to build that? What is it? What good is it?
  My responses come from this quote:

"...There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other..."
~Desiderius Erasmus, 27 October 1 1466 – 12 July 1536

So keep your imaginations free my friends. At your service.

Sincerely and With Great Respect,

Professor Otto the Confused

Theater Prop Pictures

 Greetings,

  Here are some of the other prop pieces I have been working on. Yes, you guessed it a motel A/C unit. So far one of the trickest to construct props I have ever constructed. It's only a shell, of course, and doesn't work, because having a real A/C unit would be just weird and not promote
      "..the magic of theater.."

Another piece requested of me was to create a mound of used ER bandages. This project was fun and rather satisfyingly funny, since crew members walk by my table and were grossed out. Apparently I did a bang up job.

More posts soon my friends. At your service.

HUGE Orders

Greetings,

     It's been a while since my last posting, my sincere apologies for that. Summer has been very busy for me creating props for plays and getting several orders of reproduction banknotes out to various Historical Reenactment groups. I felt very embarassed because normally I am able to send my notes out within 7 days of order placed, but with time being occupied by full-time theater, I was delayed. However the orders went out with a little extra to apologize and more orders coming in everyday.

      I have more pictures of theater props to post soon, so stay tuned. Also if you are considering an order of reproduction banknotes, don't hesitate. Get in touch with me via this post or at seeingmonsters32@msn.com and I will fill you in on the details and selections I currently have. At your service.

Keep Your Imagination Free,
