Cleary Customs
I've made costumes, props and models for many years. I studied special effects and model making at the university of Hertfordshire. They are one of the worlds leading universities in their field working on films like Thor, Star Wars the Force Awakens, Guardians of the Galaxy, Harry Potter and many more. I have taken a year out becoming self employed making props and costumes for cosplay. I have been commissioned to make a few sculptures and tattoo designs. I have also been commissioned by a local Charity Hamilton Davies to design a children's play train and restore a 35+ year old sculpture which now takes pride of place at the Irlam train station seen by hundreds of thousands of people a year. Doing the tattoo designs helped me to create a portfolio which I then used to get an apprenticeship at Candy Scull Tattoo, my dream job which enables me to be flexible enough to continue with my prop and costume business.
