Seattle MoPOP

Back in March I went to Seattle for Emerald City Comic Con. I also stopped by the Museum of Pop Culture, also known as the MoPOP. Here are some of the cool things I saw!

Makonde Dagger Build

The Makonde Dagger was designed by artist Jonah Lobe to commemorate 250K YouTube subscribers for Punished Props.

Bill Doran built an absolutely beautiful one in a video you can check out here, and then issued the challenge to the PropTarts to build their own. Here's what I did.

Due to work, a few conventions I was preparing new coplays for, and a vacation, I had to wait until Labor Day weekend to start work on this project. A very generous PropTart with Fusion 360 skills far beyond mine uploaded a model for the dagger onto Thingiverse. It's an excellent model and I tried slicing it but could not for the life of me get the blade to fit on my 3D printing bed. So seeing as how I probably wouldn't be able to complete a full size build anyway, I decided to make a 50% scale version because you know, it would be adorable. So I printed out the sliced parts on my Prusa I3 MK2S using MatterHackers Pro PLA filament in gold.

TerrifiCon 2018 Cosplay Music Video!

I've been going to TerrifiCon the past few years and I always enjoy it! It's becoming one of my favorite conventions to go to. It's well run, it's fun, and the people are always great! Here's a compilation of some of my favorite cosplay that I saw at the convention. Please enjoy!



Many thanks to these amazing cosplayers!

Fan Expo Boston Cosplay Quick Cut!

I went to Fan Expo Boston last year, took a bunch of video and never got around to editing it. Now I'm back from Fan Expo Boston 2018 with a bunch of video and I decided to edit it all into this quick cut of the coolest cosplay I saw the last two years. Thanks to all the cosplayers in this video!

Ecto-1 License Plate Keychain

Here's an Ecto-1 license plate keychain I modeled in Fusion 360. I took a picture of the license plate, imported it into Fusion 360, and built the layers on top of it drawing out each individual letter. 

Connecticut Ghostbusters: Hot Trap!!!

I was with the Connecticut Ghostbusters this past weekend at ComiCONN at Foxwoods Casino and had the pleasure of filming this little skit with actor and ghost hunter Chad Lindberg. Had a lot of fun doing this, Chad brought a great energy to it, and I still feel kind of out of breath... ;)

Happy Ghostbusters Day!

On June 8, 1984, Ghostbusters premiered in theaters and the world suddenly knew who they were going to call if they saw something strange in their neighborhood.

To celebrate, I've compiled some pictures and videos of Ghostbusters I've met the past few years. Please enjoy and have a Happy Ghostbusters Day!
