ABOUT SPiDERZERO
Hello, my name is Simon Lee, also known as Spiderzero in the garage kit sculpting world.
I'm an independent sculptor / creature designer located in Los Angeles, California.
Sculpting has been a hobby of mine since I was a little kid. Although I have never had any official trainings in art,
I did grow up in a family that has always been artistically inclined.
I started producing my own garage kit models in 2007, which I do exclusively my original designs.
I love monster movies, and I love creating new
monsters. Being able to visualize a concept and see to it that it takes shape in 3-dimensional form is to me,
pure bliss. I'm not a religious person, but I truly feel blessed that I am able to create my own creatures and monsters and be able to
share my creations with all my new found friends from around the world.
I enjoy the works of Bernini, Michelangelo, Norman Rockwell, Gustave Doré, Auguste Rodin, Frank Frazetta, Les Edwards,
Basil Gogos, Geof Darrow, The Shiflett Brothers, Steve Wang, Jordu Schell, Jose Fernandez, Carlos Huente, Chen Uen,
Takayuki Takeya, Yasushi Nirasawa, Keita Amemiya and many others.
"We believe we have found the single best sculptor not working in the industry today. Never heard of him?
neither had we. Prepared to be amazed by the works of Simon Lee." - The Shiflett Brothers
