Slaughter City preview

Slaughter City opened this weekend and I'm pretty excited about it! It's completely different from anything I've designed before, and it was fun to learn more about ageing and distressing and bloodying up things! All of the design elements in this show turned out fantastic, and the actors are amazing as well. Definitely check it out if you get a chance, the info is in the post before this! It runs from February 19th to March 21st!

Here are some photos from the show to encourage you to go see it! :)

Busy busy busy,,

Not gonna lie folks, things have been pretty busy here on the home front! Slaughter City goes up in a little over a week, and Elektra is making good progress. Looking forward to having one show done so that I can catch up on that mound of homework that has crept up on me over the last few weeks! Both shows are shaping up to be pretty fantastic though, and I'm excited to see the final products! Here's one of my final renderings for Elektra of Klytemnestra, the queen! She's gonna be pretty fabulous.

Hope life is treating everyone well! I'm off to sew more snaps on bloody slaughterhouse uniforms!
