Hi everybody!
I'm TrainWreck. A middle aged father of three blue collar worker living in sunny subtropical North Texas (it's sleeting right now...).
About three years ago, in an attempt to avoid the onslaught of a midlife crisis, I started working on making movie prop replicas and costumes. If it's not obvious my focus has been on Star Wars (that will be it's own blog post) but I'm hoping to branch out sooner than later into other films.
All of that being said the main focus of this blog will be on my amateurish attempts at prop making. It will be "How To's" which inevitably will lead to "How To Fix's" (my name is TrainWreck after all). I'll post mainly tutorials and general ramblings about costuming, prop building, and 3D printing as I learn and grow in this hobby.
I'm looking forward to starting this but for now please remember: Never be afraid to fail!
All of my love guys and hopefully I'll be seeing you soon!

Welcome!
Your post made me laugh (YES it is obvious that your focus has been on Star Wars :))
The text you are holding is the transcript of the paper sheet that we can see on the right hand side of your photo between two soldier helmets, right ?
Was not obvious at once ;)
Well, nice to see you here and waiting to see one of your post maybe going in the top trending of Steemit! See you.

Thank you!
Yeah. I was printing out the Steemit paper and realized that I had put aurebesh as a font on my computer. Well one thing led to another and the next thing I know I have an aurebesh version. I didn't realize the English one was so out of focus until I had it on the post. Oh well...

Howdy! I can see that you have signed up recently so I'd like to offer you my welcome. Here's an upvote from me and maybe upvote some of my stuff too!
As you are new to steemit, getting those big upvotes are gonna be hard so my advice would be to give @MinnowPowerUp a go as you can earn up to 30% more steem power than just powering up! It's a subscription based daily upvote bot that draws its power from a delegation pool. I also recently made this post explaining my experience with it in more depth while earning over $1 per day in upvotes.
