My theme this year has become Dr. Von Frankenstein's lab, mostly because I feel my Bride of Frankenstein costume deserves more display (and I'm revamping it) and approximately 1/3 of the set will actually be dressed with my medical antiques that I collect from the 50's sonogram machine to the Victorian wheelchair in my collection.
But I need more. While looking for inspiration of what props to focus on building in my limited time as well as a facade, I've come across the works of Jacob P., a bit of deranged artist with some incredible pieces. I thought you all might get some inspiration from him as well.
Some of my favourites are his "Quick and Dirty Daemon" for a music video:

And Deus Ex Arca, a salesman's kit for genetically engineered pets:

I was working on something similar to his Von Richts Mechanical Glove, but now I will be stepping up my game after viewing his flawless craftmanship:
