About the Book

This follow-up to Shawn Thorsson's bestselling Make: Props and Costume Armor takes readers even farther into the world of making realistic science fiction- and fantasy-inspired prop replicas and wearable costume armor. It's designed to be useful for everyone from the beginner all the way up to the experienced craftsman looking to expand his or her repertoire. The author's clear, step-by-step approach to explanations and his entertaining, humorous style of writing make it easy for readers to follow along and reproduce amazing-looking creations. This standalone sequel to Make: Props and Costume Armor introduces a host of new tools and techniques, including:

  • Reusing existing objects to make props
  • Working with foam and thermoplastics
  • Creating clear parts with resins and vacformed plastics
  • Incorporate electronics (including programmables) into props and armor
  • Designing costumes with non-human outlines, including "dog-leg" stilts
  • Making storage and display bins, racks, and stands

    This book is for cosplayers, science fiction and fantasy fans, film fans, comic fans, anime fans, and anyone who gets carried away on Halloween. Written in a casual, humorous style that includes detailed descriptions of methods and materials, the easy-to-follow instructions are accompanied by lots of full-color photos to clearly illustrate processes. New costume and prop makers will benefit from shortcuts and lessons learned from years of experience of a seasoned professional.


  • About the Author :

    Shawn Thorsson is the founder of Thorsson & Associates Workshop. A lifelong tinkerer, he learned at a very young age that the best way to have the coolest toys is often to make them yourself. A hopeless Halloween addict and fan of all things science fiction and fantasy, Shawn's hobby of building prop and costume pieces for his own collection has long since gotten out of control. He now spends his days immersed in his workshop for countless hours turning whatever he can find into pure, concentrated awesome. Shawn and his props and armor have become a major attraction at the annual Bay Area Maker Faire. Today, his workshop regularly produces props, costumes, and set pieces for films, convention appearances, and collectors.
