Post 4 - Guillermo Carrion

 What is the meaning, idea, and message of your work? 

I don't have any meaning behind my work, the idea is to bring fiction to reality, and the message is not everything from your favorite media has to stay in that media

What is a problem in the world that your work helps to solve or a story it helps to tell? 

I don't have any meaning behind my work, the idea is to bring fiction to reality, and the message is not everything from your favorite media has to stay in that media

What is important to convey in your work? 

a problem is that people don't always get the items they love from media made into toys or reasonably priced collectibles and I make them become real and decently priced props people can enjoy having.

How do you want your audience to feel? 

i find it important to convey that not everything made or getting into the hobby has to be expensive. You don't need skills to get what you want made and learning the skills doesn't take much learning either.

How do you imagine the work will be received? 

i don't really care how the audience receives my work because everyone wants something different and everyone will request something different. My point is to make myself happy or whoever asked for the item happy.

What does the work accomplish? 

It makes a person happy and myself

Explain how the examples of your work included in the post might fulfill this mission(s).

The works I've made have all fulfilled their roll of making the client happy. they all got what they asked for and got to either dress up in the outfits they wanted or even just have a prop from a game or movie they always loved since their childhood. 

This is a Darth Vader helmet from Revenge of the Sith made for my friends dad. It was one of the movie series their father grew up watching and they always wanted to have a helmet. Unfortunately, the market always sells helmets that are too small since they are always made for kids and the custom-sized/movie replica-sized ones are insanely expensive. So they asked me and I made them a custom-sized helmet that looked screen-accurate and custom-fit to them for half the price.

This is a custom made helmet of the moon god Khonshu from Moon Knight. This client wanted it for their cosplay for New York Comic Con. i went and made them the helmet since the show just came out and no one was even selling helmets or things of this character. so I made it for them and delivered it and they loved everything about it.

This is a Deadpool cosplay I helped my friend build and make. no place was selling shin guards or the katanas as a cheap price, so I printed them for him and helped him complete his outfit for New York Comic Con

The same friend I helped him for a previous suit. he needed a helmet from a specific comic-book version of Daredevil which wasn't available anywhere to buy so I made him the helmet and the Billy Clubs. I sized the helmet to be perfect sized and fit for his head and also made the clubs be perfectly sized for someone of his stature.

This is a helmet made for Youtuber Marques Brownlee. I custom-painted it in his iconic brand colors after I made him that helmet as a thank-you. He DID NOT ask for the helmet but I made him the helmet in all black and saw it in one of his videos being used as a background prop. so I asked for it back to be repainted in his channel colors.
