I'm one of those people who if I see something I find interesting rather than buy it I try to make it instead. I also loved certain videogames growing up and having a physical memento was enough to get me working out how I can make my own. 

I began helping out with local theatre groups making props and painting background scenery for their upcoming shows. The process of turning other materials into something else I find really exciting and I hope to do a lot more of this in future.
