Enough of the monster stuff! I know you Moonbasers are really only here to see the water pistols I made for Greystanes, the Tik Tok Horror series!
The story is set in the 1990's and our young heroine arms herself with a brace of water pistols containing the only substance that can overpower Il Hadiela's Maltese folkloric evil!
Ryan found some contemporary water blasters that looked a bit like period props

and I modified them to (break copyright) and painted them in retro colours.
For good measure, I took the boxes they came in and covered them in $3 wrapping paper ( did I mention this was a low budget production?) then designed and printed out some period style graphics using my colour laser printer!

To my delight, the boxes feature quite prominently in the establishing shot. so all that Art Department storytelling was put to good use!
I had a great time working on the series, mostly because I got to design and build the Boss Monster!
...and make packaging for water pistols!
