Blue Realm Studios Gets a New Look
By way of introduction, I’ll briefly explain a few of the goals and ideas we have for this site. While there are several excellent online portals and communities available for prop designers , we have noticed that there are few general blogs covering this industry. In fact, beyond individual blogs of artists posting their work, we found this area quite lacking. This is a niche we would like to fill.

What are some of the things we have in mind?

Industry News & Highlights. Covering the latest news & events related to prop design, custom fabrication, and related topics.
Tutorials, Workshops, Tips & Tricks. Helping to bring prop builders together and furthering their education.
Featured Artists. Provide a venue for talented artists to showcase their work and reach their audience.
Reviews. Highlighting helpful books, sites, hardware, and software related to the the industry.

We welcome all to contribute news tips, suggested links, or any related material by using our contact form. Thanks for visiting.

Extra Life – Do it for the children!!!

Extra Life – Do it for the children!!!
It is time for us to stand up and help out where we can. We have a great time laughing and joking with each other, playing games together but not all are so lucky. Some very special children out there need some assistance, and we can help! It is time for us to stand up and help out where we can.

What is it?
405th and BlueRealm Studios are teaming up to collect donations to Benefit the Texas Children’s Hospital. These are awesome kids who have been dealt a crappy hand, and we can help out. Read this touching letter.

When is it?
October 18th – play as much Halo as you can to earn money!

How does it work?
Devin and I are trying to get people to sponsor us while we play Halo. We’re asking our friends, family, strangers to sponsor us while you play Halo for up to 24 hours on October 18th! For instance, maybe my uncle says he’ll give us $1 for every hour of Halo we play. We play for 24 hours straight, she gives us $24.00 to donate to to charity! Get it?

Now if we can get 5 people or 10 people who will pledge $1 for every hour we play, you’re really making a difference!

How do I sign up to donate?
It’s very simple, donate on this page. This will keep track of how much 405th, and BlueRealm Studios has collected for charity. The donation page accepts credit cards and paypal.

What if I want to play Halo for charity?
Well, direct people to that donate page I just showed you. Then join Adam and Devin online. Adam’s gamertag is Gargamel Gt, and Devin’s is BlueRealmStud.

405th and BlueRealm Studios will really get a chance to stand up, and make a difference for these kids. Tell everyone you know, and ask them to pledge. It’s as little or as much as you can give. It’s very easy to make a donation of $1, so the MAX they’ll be donating is $24. You know you’ve spent more than that on glue, paper and resin this week, so why not donate it to these deserving kids!

We’ve gone and started the mercury meter with small donations, so contribute what you can.

Go for it, pledge your amount, then email your friends, and family and get them to sign up. We need your help!

Blue Realm Studios visits Bungie Studios
The guys at Blue Realm Studios sent fans into a frenzy when a few Spartans and some UNSC Marines showed up on Bungie Studios webcams. Excitement quickly infected the internet with the curious questions of shirts bearing a unique logo and glimpses of armored figures passing by the webcams and Bungie employees gathering in large masses. The team at Blue Realm Studios was working on a project with Bungie and wanted to show off the finished product to the staff.
