If anyone looked through the workshop window without context, they might have some questions. Between creature effects, prosthetics, animatronics, props and all manner of weird and wonderful creations, there’s never a dull moment at Sharp FX. Sometimes that means spending hours carefully detailing a chopped-up body.

All eyes on this 👁️
In 2022, Sharp FX created three life-size orca models for the National Museum of Australia.
Suspended in the Great Southern Land gallery, these whales represent the famous Eden pod — including Old Tom — and tell the remarkable story of humans and orcas working together in Twofold Bay, NSW.
A rare and powerful chapter of Australian environmental history brought to life at scale.
Huge thanks to the crew involved for their hard work and dedication to this project.
