# About me
I was trained as a marine biologist who specialised in hard coral taxonomy. I became a science teacher for three years, before getting kicked out and landing hard on my shebs. Things started going downhill from there. I started up and closed down a couple of businesses, my marriage was effectively terminated and hopped from job to job.I am now Artistic Director and Chief Monster Maker of Sanctumania Studios who designs and builds costumes and props, mainly armor. I am in the Malaysia Book of Records for being the first Malaysian to become a member of the Mandalorian Mercs Costuming Club, an international Star Wars fan-based costume club.
I've completed my third solo costumes exhibition, Resurrection III, at the Museum & Galeri Tuanku Fauziah, USM Penang in 2009, and was also involved in the Malaysian Contemporary Art Tourism campaigns in Penang in 2010 and 2011. I was nominated in the Signature Art Prize in Singapore in 2011.

Your Mandalorian Crusader artwork is pretty impressive, you really don't see a lot of artwork about those guys. Keep up the great work

Hi,
I'm interested in your Saya's sword/katana since it uses cardboard. Could you briefly describe how you made it? I think a tutorial would be pretty awesome as well ^^
I'm intrigued because I like making cosplay props out of cheap and easy to manipulate materials. I'm in the process of finishing a cardboard katana myself.

I would prefer you complete one thing at a time, stick to it and make sure it gets done. Focus, rather than wanting to have everything and yet nothing...

I wrote in google "haji sword" and entered in a tutorial of yours, that explains how to make the saya`s katana. And then your deviant came out. This is really amazing, your work is such an inspiration, for real.
