      But that stuff is brilliant

      there are not enough people in this country these days who make stuff. impressed
      ^^ Absolutely this. Very impressive indeed. The steam punk stuff is great. Loving bag 1 and 2!! Are you a steam punk fan then or just a spot in the market you are aiming at? How do you sell this stuff? Just out of interest how much do you charge for bag 2? That has to be a pretty profitable plan B surely. IMO that stuff is waaaaay beyond a hobbyist.

      Can I just add a bit of constructive criticism though... All of the stuff is amazing.. except for the bracelet saying Aaliyah on it. The letters are not straight and kinda detracts from the rest of it.

            I saw one of those for sale in Dubai.

                      The shots themselves are pants: I am not & never will be a photographer, they are more a guide / personal portfolio for me

                      Constructive criticism is welcome: I am only a hobbyist & this is not a plan B

                      & yes that is BGG in the Anubis mask
                      May not be a plan B now but it could be. The LARP scene has grown up a lot (well the players have) and people are willing to pay for good stuff for costume.

                      This guy is probably one of the best known, but plenty of others are doing well with it. Welcome

                      Etsy and other sites are good places to sell stuff like this. This Facebook group is worth a look as well (assuming you don't know it already) https://www.facebook.com/groups/289666864462656/
