Painting and Finishing

By | News, Uncategorised | No Comments

Our dedicated painting and finishing room ensures the best environment for completing projects.  This is where sparks of life are given to the pieces we create. Where a rubber gun becomes an authentic looking Karabiner 98 Kurz (K98) complete with a beautiful hand painted wood finish or a horse receives its flock coast eyelashes and final details or a fiberglass and resin bust has its finish buffed to bring out the authentic metal details.

In short, we have a finish to suit each of your requirements #films #television #props #weapons #stunts
