Praise and Reviews (aka, a List of Quotes I'm Proud Of)

Over the past few years A few people have said or posted things about me that have flattered me to no end.  I can't help but share some of my favorites...

"Costume and prop-maker Shawn Thorsson creates some of the most detailed and realistic costumes and props I’ve seen in the cosplay world." Geeks are Sexy

"This guy doesn’t make costumes and props, he creates something of a reality distortion field around him and his creations.  You can’t stand next to one of his, say, mind-bending HALO costumes, and not feel a little bit like you’ve stumbled through Alice’s looking glass."  -MAKE Online

"Maker Shawn Thorsson has a long history of making impressive props and costumes, but it wasn't until he won a 3-D printer from Instructables that he could unleash his inner Tony Stark and craft Iron Manarmor.

"Every once in a while you find other prop / costume makers that you truly envy in both skill and ambition. Spend a min and look through this mans blog. Your jaw will hit the floor." -Facebook page for Arms, Armor, and Awesome
