SECTION 01 — HERO

OUR PROCESS

THE WORK
OF MANY
HANDS.

Every commission moves through a considered process of sculpting, moulding, colouring, individual hair placement and hand-finished costume work.

SECTION 02 — FOUR STAGES

SCULPT

Form and proportion are sculpted by hand before the moulding process begins.

03

SURFACE

Skin tone, eyes and individual strands of hair are built up layer by layer.

Costume, posture and final details are brought together, refined and reviewed.
