Greg Broadmore

Designer/Sculptor

Greg Broadmore is a Dinosaur nerd. He probably always was a dinosaur nerd. As a boy he drew dinosaurs, tanks and robots. Now he is paid to draw dinosaurs, tanks and robots. And Rayguns.

In 2005 Greg co-designed and oversaw the art direction of the Tripod-Wellington Film Industry Tribute sculpture, (a six metre tall robot of doom which lives on Courtenay Place in Wellington city) as well as the Riff Raff-Richard O'Brien tribute sculpture in Hamilton, New Zealand.

He was a designer and sculptor on Peter Jacksons King Kong and The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe and was also one of the illustrators and concept writers for Weta Workshops first publication, 'The World of Kong: A Natural History of Skull Island'.

In 2006, Weta revealed their latest Weta Originals Rayguns range, entirely designed and conceptualised by Greg. The Rayguns: Dr Grordborts Infallible Aether Oscillators, is a line of 1:1 scale antique styled sci-fi hand weapon props. With charming, 1900s contraption styling and finish, the Rayguns evoke the nostalgia of a lost age of exploration and discovery.

He is currently working on expanding the Rayguns universe and is writing and illustrating 'Dr. Grordborts Contrapulatronic Dingus Directory', a graphic novel publication filled with Rayguns, contraptions, moon soldiers and detailed alien breeding pictograms.
