Let's sum up what's happened since my last post....I broke myself on a trampoline, twice. I spent two weekends laying on the couch in a percoset daze since the second time was my neck taking it's Revengeance on me for bouncing and bending my back the wrong direction the week prior. (Yes I sound old...I'm not. My … Continue reading One Red Deadpool

Steam Punk Power Supply
So a while back I talked about building a prop for a local web series Mantecoza. Well it is finally finished, thanks in good part to my father, Kenneth Backer. He helped out tremendously on this build. This was a very interesting project for me, as I normally do replicas or work off of some one else's designs. We were basically given free reign on the … Continue reading Steam Punk Power Supply
The Monarchs
Guess what we're doing for Halloween?! I know I said I wasn't going to do posts about things I wasn't actually working on...well maybe I said that to myself, but that's besides the point.

Wasp and Deadpool progress
Oh boy....there's nothing like the 2 weeks before a con, especially if you are getting a booth for the first time. There have been days that eating, showering, and leaving the house have not happened (you think I'm joking..)One such day was the day before Free Comic Book Day (I did shower...I promise) I spent … Continue reading Wasp and Deadpool progress
Wasp Armor
With the Avengers movie out and everyone excited already for a sequel, my wife wanted to build an Avenger costume. Since the only choice from the fist film was Black Widow, and we have a good friend with a great Widow costume, she picked The Wasp from the comics. This build was split between the two of … Continue reading Wasp Armor
