Harbinger 3D was founded by Mark Lyon, a sculptor and digital designer with nearly two decades of experience at the intersection of traditional craft and cutting-edge technology.
​
Mark studied sculpture and painting at Tyler School of Art in Pennsylvania before finding his way into the world of 3D technology at a fine arts bronze foundry — starting as a patina artist and working his way up to leading the foundry's digital department. That hands-on foundation in traditional fabrication, combined with deep experience in 3D scanning, digital sculpting, and CNC milling, shapes everything Harbinger 3D does today.
​
Over the years, Mark has worked with artists, fabricators, foundries, and makers across a wide range of industries and scales — from highly detailed fine art to large-scale architectural and industrial projects. The through line is always the same: precision, craft, and close collaboration on every project.
​
Whether you're an artist, a designer, or an engineer with a problem to solve, you're working directly with Mark — not a team of technicians.
