Building an axe throwing booth for Bellwright at IGN Live meant balancing authenticity, safety, and a little acoustic engineering. 🪓⚒️

Working with Experiential Supply Co., we created an immersive experience that looked true to the game while keeping guests safe and minimizing noise for neighboring exhibitors.

A unique challenge and a seriously fun build from start to finish.

Would you just toss these in the bin?

Need a sandy scene without turning the shop into a beach? 🏖️

This is a sand mat. We create it by spraying a layer of urethane onto a flat surface, then covering it with real sand while it’s still tacky. Once it cures, the sand is permanently bonded, creating a lightweight, flexible sheet that looks just like the real thing.

It’s a simple fabrication trick that solves a big production problem: getting the look of sand without the mess, cleanup, or hassle of bringing in the real thing.

One of the most common questions we get is: “How do I get started in scenic fabrication?”

The truth is, there’s no single path. We asked some of our artists how they got their start and what advice they’d give to someone looking to break into the industry.

If you’re curious about scenic fabrication, we hope their stories help inspire your own journey.

What’s your path been? Let us know below. 👇

Weeks of work. Thousands of details. One giant Xenomorph.

What most people see is the finished creature. What they don’t see are the countless hours of sculpting, fabrication, painting, engineering, and craftsmanship behind every inch of it.

At Monster City Studios, we obsess over the details, even the ones no one will ever notice. That’s what separates good from unforgettable.

Sometimes the cleanest solutions are the simplest. 👌

When a foam piece is too large or oddly shaped for the hot wire table, we break out this trick:

After measuring the exact cut line, we attach standard 90° construction trim directly to the foam to create a rigid guide for the manual hot wire cutter. That gives us a smooth, consistent cut even on massive or awkward pieces.

A little fabrication hack that saves a LOT of cleanup later. 🔥✂️
