Summary

righto so what is there to know about me, well currently im working to get a degree in media design(Game design, and 3D modeling), and computer graphics, but also trying to expand my skills with practical props and effects, along with model making, and also trying things ive never done before.
People I look up to are; Adam Savage, Gerry Anderson, Peter Jackon, Frank Ippolito (Thingery Inc), Bill Doran (Punished Props) and Tony Stark ;)

Also the reason there is such a wide spread of work on my portfolio, its because I want to A) keep a record of where i started to where I am now, and B) is that its also show me as a person, with the different kind of work I do for enjoyment or professional. Hopefully that clears that yup :)
