Our Story
“Your focus determines your reality.”
-Qui Gon Jin
Long ago in the corner of an apartment a foamsmith began…..
No but for real, a while back I (Liam/ Ashen warrior props) began tinkering with prop making with the desire to create stories and films, a bit later my best friend now wife Emily began helping me with sewing projects and in turn I taught her the ins and outs of foamsmithing, later we decided that we wanted to turn this hobby into a more serious adventure and thus AWP was born.
Liam (Ashen Warrior Props)
THE ARMORER! Prop making and story telling has always been a passion of mine with my personal goal as I build and paint being, to achieve a hyper real and accurate representation of the source material, often times losing sleep until I build and place every tiny detail where it goes. My favorite parts of the process being the building and painting of the props.
Emily (Ashen Bug)
THE BRAINS! While Ashen tends to come up with the crazy ideas and plans my typical activity is to come up with the logical way to make it happen, in all seriousness we both possess the skills necessary to turn fiction into fact, transforming fantasy into reality is our number one goal in every activity. My favorite part of the creative process is figuring out the details!
