We like to have fun and work at our own pace, which tends to get frantic at times.
We have a dedication to making functional armor for people who rely on it... and we have a passion for making it gorgeous.
Paul Andre is the master of the armory.
He teaches art at Homer High School, and has a Masters from Alfred University.
Everything in the studio goes through him, and he is the driving force behind Nikkitta Armories.
Nick Lyon is a former student of Paul's and an excellent artist in his own right. His desire to be the best at everything carries over to a zealous attitude toward armor.
Leah Andre, Paul's wife, makes our quality leather strapping. Her dye, die, and punch work gives us a great extra touch to our steel.
Mikel Withers, me... what can I say, I don't have the artistry background of Paul and Nick, but I try to hold my own on knowledge and attention to detail.
