ABOUT/BIO
I NEED SCISSORS

Hello! I'm Curtis, also known as Crater - a nickname I got instead of a spaceship pilot's license.
 

It turns out correcting the orbit of a moon is horrifically expensive, not to mention embarassing. Seemed time to finally leave the inner system. With little else but determination and a few tools, my wife and I hopped a cheap colony ship bound for the Kuiper frontier.

​​​

After a glimpse at the brutal fringe life, we established Starside Armory to serve the everyday working spacer. I don't make fancy inner gear, designed by committee to meet quarterly goals and entrap consumers, shipping in 6-9 months. I make the best gear I can with whatever skills and materials I've scraped together, providing immediate solutions to immediate problems.

​​​

I want to pull people into the future when they hold my work. I want to make ordinary things that don't need to exist yet. I want to find where I fit on the fashion timeline. I want to make things that I want.

​​​

Major influences, in order of exposure: Aliens, Marathon 2: DurandalWipeOut XL, Cowboy Bebop, Metal Gear Solid, Ghost in the Shell, Titanfall, Cyberpunk 2077, and Marathon (again).
