Description

Ever thought about starting your own creative business? Ever consider the ups and down and personal discipline needed? Elliot Garnett is the mastermind behind Centerpoint Studios, a full-time custom miniature and diorama studio. 

Always a showstopper at various conventions around the country with large-scale, table-sized dioramas like Dex’s Diner, Elliot and Centerpoint is known for recreating your favorite sets and characters from a galaxy far, far away. 

In this conversation, Elliot shares his journey from drawing on toys with Sharpie to the highly-detailed, intricate figures he sells full-time. Elliot shares a lot of the entrepreneurial journey and the power of a dedicated fan base, and the difference between working in your own shop versus a studio.
