With Gladiator II in cinemas - featuring some costumes by FBFX! - we've been looking back at the work we did on the original Gladiator movie. The Tigris of Gaul character was an undefeated gladiator brought in by Emperor Commodus to fight Maximus before the crowds in the Colosseum. The costume for actor Sven-Ole Thorsen was one of the many FBFX fabricated for the film, with the clay sculpt for the helmet (pictured) by concept artist Paul Catling, with the face sculpt by Mark Doddwell. Oscar-winning costume design for Gladiator was by Janty Yates. We'll be sharing more memories of Gladiator over the coming days, and keep an eye out on Monday for a rather special video...

This award is considered the most prestigious award for business in the UK. Less than 300 of the 5.5 million UK companies have been presented with this prestigious accolade this year. It was a very proud moment for me and a testament to the hard work and dedication of the amazing Propstore team ❤

Deadpool & Wolverine has arrived on Disney+! Hugh Jackman finally appearing on screen in Wolverine’s yellow and blue suit was a fan highlight of this summer’s undisputed blockbuster. With vis dev by Andy Park and Ryan Meinerding, and costume design by Mayes C. Rubeo and Graham Churchyard, the yellow suit was realised here at FBFX. Earlier this year, we were able to share an in-depth look at the costume with Tested and Adam Savage and talk him through how this iconic suit was made. Watch it here: https://lnkd.in/edagSf7h
