  • Adam examines a casting of Dream's Helm as seen in Netflix's The Sandman show, fabricated by the specialty costume makers at FBFX. Modelmaker Diana Denisova walks Adam through how the team at FBFX created this iconic prop for the show, from the sculptural bone-like elements to the detailed textures that cover its exterior surface. Truly a piece worthy of Dream of the Endless!

    Oh man. This is AWESOME.
    I got into Sandman because of Netflix, since then I've bought the comic set and I'm almost done with my second read.
    The emotions seeing these pieces! The stories behind them only make it better. Part of what I love so much about Sandman is how it came together, who drew it and coloured it. This is like that, but for the equally great series.
    Thank you so much for this!

    I absolutely LOVE what they did with the helm - what an amazing job. Honestly, I love what they did with the whole shebang, Sandman has gone far beyond my favorite piece of literature. I remember reading through the books for the first time and how truly awesome it felt. It's how I feel whenever I reread them, and seeing it in live action... it's brilliant, it's wonderful, it perfectly compliments Gaiman's masterpiece. Bravo, FBFX. 🖤

    Such an amazing job on that helmet. Very interesting to hear about the challenges of making props and how different materials react differently in the production process. Also I think Diana Denisova presented the process in a great way so that we who don't know anything about it both could understand the process and the complexity.

    It's crazy what exhaustive effort is being asked of costume and prop makers in the name of continuity, but script-, set- and posture-continuity from scene to scene is just thrown out the window routinely even on the most expensive productions. On the early Internet whole sites were dedicated to finding rare movie mistakes, now they have become too numerous to tally.

    Prop making is awesome and I enjoy miniature sculpting, terrain creation, models, etc., but jeez. The whole concept of making a work of art, multiple times, identically each time, would drive me insane. How do they do it? Like the heads from the Pinocchio video; how does an artist go through and make 10, 20, 50, or a hundred of those heads identically!?

      I believe it's covered a bit more in the more recent Sandman Overture issues. Here's hoping the show does well enough to get that far, I would be beyond thrilled. If you have the time though, I would highly recommend checking the books out. Not at all as some sort of purist - I absolutely love the show - but between Gaiman's writing and all of the brilliant artists attached to it, it's just one of life's many delightful wonders haha cheers! 🖤
