At The Forgotten Imp, we are dedicated to turning your ideas into reality!
WHAT WE DO.
Whether it's a creature suit or an animal prop for filming, props for your larp/cosplay character, a maquette of a company character for a tradeshow or simply a OOAK mask for a masquerade, we can work with you to realise the project. From big to small jobs we aim to help realise your ideas.
In certain projects, we utilize various processes including in-house designing, 3D printing, mold making, sculpting, fabrication, airbrushing, prosthetics creation, patterning, and more. All from a brief provided by you the client. If you don’t have concept sketches this can also be done by our team.
To view our work and products created using the processes described above, please visit our portfolio gallery section.
Our work is heavily inspired by nature and fantasy themes, drawing influence from folklore and mythological tales worldwide. While we focus primarily on themes of fantasy, our style is grounded in a sense of realism and believability. If you believe our style aligns with your project, please reach out to us today!

Chief Imp: Amber
FOUNDER: Sculptor, Designer, Artist, Lead Fabricator & 3d Modellor.
Chief Imp has been working as a prop maker for well over a decade in both the film/TV industry and the corporate sector. She creates props and costumes for a variety of needs, ranging from realistic prop animals used in filming to a cat costume for a trampolining stunt for an ad campaign.
After working in the TV sector for a few years, Chief Imp set up and founded The Forgotten Imp to pursue more creative projects of a fantasy-based nature outside of the realistic bodies, wounds, and props that UK TV productions demand. Her passion lies in the theme and realm of fantasy, heavily inspired by Jim Henson, Dungeons & Dragons, tales of folklore, and a sprinkling of science fiction and horror. These influences inform the projects she chooses to work on.
Outside of work, Chief Imp uses her free time to build her own world of creatures in the hope of inspiring others, young and old, to embrace their creativity and love of fantasy.

Tech Imp: Adam
TECHNOLOGY SUPERVISOR: 3d Print Specialist, LED/Arduino Light Specialist, 3D Modellor. Tea Maker.
Tech Imp is a tech enthusiast with a passion for new technologies and classic practical effects films such as Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, and Star Wars, which is evident in his work at The Forgotten Imp.
Tech Imp met Chief Imp, who was working at an SFX Prophouse in Liverpool. Not long after, Tech Imp joined the team to contribute his technological knowledge and logical thinking. His responsibilities at Imp HQ include handling non-organic 3D modeling, managing and maintaining 3D printers, programming Arduino lights for prop builds, and coding as needed. He also makes a great cup of tea!
Outside of the workshop, you may find him at comic cons assisting Chief Imp, creating his own cosplay props, painting models, or leading a battalion of Dwarfs on the battlefield!
