Dracarys - Props, Miniatures, Costume & Re-enactment

I also offer services involving prop making, costuming and historical re-enactment. Dracarys Props is primarily a miniature painting service, as well as providing custom built terrain, basing, miniature sculpting and conversions. I also build props and costumes for both the cosplay, collector and historical re-enactment communities. I offer both my own completely bespoke work, and will also help w

ith any modification and customisation, please contact me with your project ideas. This page acts as a portfolio of previous projects for both my own hobbies and customer commissions. I offer two standards of miniature painting depending on your budget:
Wargames Standard: these are simple, though very neatly painted. Featuring basecoat, midtone and highlight, basic shading, simple shield designs and basing which includes a painted ground texture and static grass, sand or snow. Collector/Display Standard: as above but including multiple stage highlights and shading, more complex shield options and basing with extends to multiple foliage types and seasonal effects. Please see the photo albums for both types of painting standard. Both standards have the option of Matt or Gloss varnish finish. I can also prep your miniature before painting, which includes assembly, the flashing and mould lines cleaning up and magnetic strips can be added to bases. So you have the option of sending me your miniatures in their 'just bought' state. I also make clothing and textile pieces for Anglo-Saxon and viking Re-enactment, and am a member of Regia Anglorum. Authenticity is paramount in my work, and the appropriate research goes into every design and item I produce. I specialise in embroidery, and can make fully hand-sewn garments or add period and region-specific embellishment to an existing garment, banners, embroidered scenes (ala Bayeux Tapestry), leatherwork and tooling. I am also a member of the 501st and Rebel Legion and can offer my services to cosplay of any kind. I will help with the prep and finish of 3d printed kits you may have, though do not have the facilities to produce 3D printed or vac formed parts myself. Please be aware that my day job is Senior Prop Painter at RS Prop Masters, and so any commissions that may be seen as a conflict of interest, I would respectfully direct you over to RS. For example if you purchased RS products and wanted me to paint/finish/assemble privately, I would suggest instead you do so through RS itself. Please see my photo albums for all the different types of work I can produce. No job is too large or too small, feel free to PM me for quotes and other details and we can talk through your specific needs. :) I accept payment via PayPal. Thanks for taking a look!
