Hello and welcome to
ARACHNIUM FX

I am trainee sculptor, runner and mould maker from Preston, currently based in Grimsby but willing to relocate. 

I have just graduated from a BA (hons) degree in Special Effects and Prosthetic Design at University Centre Grimsby.

I developed a passion in makeup after doing short courses in makeup and lash extension and following on to study level 2 and 3 in Hair and Media Makeup. I developed skills in theatrical and media makeup and went on to focusing on prosthetic work after some brief special effects work in Level 3.

I specialise in sculpting, moulding and running using materials such as foam and silicone, with additional skills using out of kit products for casualty simulation makeups. I also have good skills in seaming, patching and painting.
