STAR TREK VOYAGER
CONSTRUCTED COSTUMES
Voyager is attacked by swarms of tiny spaceships which attach themselves to Voyager's hull.
​
CCFx founder, Paul worked with a small team at Total Fabrication to construct two of the “Swarm” aliens suits in 5 days. The finish and paint work were done entirely by him.
The Star Trek costume department at Paramount Studios was so impressed by the costumes, they broke into a spontaneous round of applause during the fitting. It’s the small things that make it all worthwhile.
