Step Inside Shawn Thorsson’s Workshop

Read MAKE magazine: Volume 32Down a dusty road in the eggs-and-butter town of Petaluma, Calif., sits a big, handmade pink Victorian complete with chicken coop, storage containers, vintage cars, and Shawn Thorsson’s badass workshop, where he brings characters from tabletop games, video games, and the occasional movie to life. Check out the profile interview, along with a catalog of 16 of his amazing costumes, and a workshop spread with tool callouts in the new issue of MAKE, Volume 32.

And check out this slideshow to step inside Thorsson’s workshop for a closer look:

I'm a word nerd who loves to geek out on how emerging technology affects the lexicon. I was an editor on the first 40 volumes of MAKE, and I love shining light on the incredible makers in our community. In particular, covering art is my passion — after all, art is the first thing most of us ever made. When not fawning over perfect word choices, I can be found on the nearest mountain, looking for untouched powder fields and ideal alpine lakes.
