I am a professional diorama builder, I build custom diorama displays for action figures of different science fiction genres, for example, Star Wars, Star Trek, DC Comics, Masters of the Universe, Transformers.  Each set can be used for displaying action figures, video animation, even gaming.

I also create custom action figures and paint Warhammer 40000 miniatures. 

What started as an enjoyable hobby for my own action figures has evolved to the point where I am now creating custom dioramas displays for clients around the world.
