Well, I don't fit into any category above, I run a small business that does multimedia and also, by accident, create things like these.......



I, for some reason, stumbled into this when I had a lady who wanted something for her husbands birthday, you know the "What do you get a man who has everything" type scenario, the word spread and I've, either sourced or produced props from thier favourite movies. I can't do firearms, obviously, which is a bummer because I get asked about the pulse rifle from Aliens. However, when I tell them I can do one of these.....







...they're pretty happy.

Cheers,

Yeah, I don't know why the people in the Alien films didn't want more of them..hehehe.

I actually didn't think about that, I've already had my Spiderman avatar deleted, I suppose this will be gone soon too.

My job is chief multi-tasker. Looking after 5 kids (14,13,10,8,6) and then of course there is Chris. Two kids play in bands, 3 play tennis, 2 do netball, I play softball and netball. All this running around constitutes my full time job. Running a house 5 kids, a husband and trying to keep on top of the many cars that he seems to accumulate are enough to keep me very busy. I think that leaving the house to go to work would be less stressful and much easier.
