From their photo to their hands.

Four real orders, every step kept. The photo that arrived, the preview we drew from it, the 3D model they turned round before approving, and the piece that ended up on a shelf. Nothing here was staged for the website.

Couple figurine · 8 cm

Her parents, photographed from across a bridge

Maria had one holiday photo of the two of them together. They're small in the frame, backlit by the falls, faces barely there. It was the photo she had, so it's the photo we worked from.

  1. The photo she sent

    A couple standing on a bridge in front of a waterfall, small in the frame and lit from behind

    Shot from the far side of the bridge, into the sun.

  2. The preview, next day

    Preview render of the couple as a figurine, him in a green polo, her in a navy jacket

    His polo, her navy jacket, the bag across her shoulder.

  3. The 3D model

    Turned all the way round before she approved it.

  4. In her hands

    The finished couple figurine held in one hand on a balcony at sunset

    Hand-finished resin, out on the balcony at golden hour.

Photo figurine · 10 cm

Two photos taken months apart, one figurine

She had a photo of herself outside a green door, and a photo of her cat sitting in a window. Never one of the two of them together — the cat had other plans every time. So the figurine is where they finally met.

  1. The two photos she sent

    A young woman standing in front of a dark green door, smiling at the camera A black and white tuxedo cat sitting upright in a sunlit window

    One of her in town, one of the cat months earlier.

  2. The preview

    Preview render of the young woman holding her cat, in white trousers and a striped top

    Sunglasses up in her hair, cat tucked into one arm.

  3. The 3D model

    Checked from every side before she approved it.

  4. In her hands

    The finished figurine of the young woman holding her cat, held up against a garden at dusk

    10 cm, hand-painted, down to the cat's white chest.

Pet keychain · 4 cm

A black dog, in long grass, facing away

About the hardest photo there is to sculpt from. A black dog reads as a silhouette in most light, and Cacau had his back half turned. The red harness gave us the scale and the shape of him; the ears did the rest.

  1. What Rui sent

    A black dog in a red harness lying in long grass beside a bench, half turned away from the camera

    Lying in the grass by the water, mostly in shadow.

  2. The preview

    Preview render of the black dog as a keychain, sitting up in his red harness

    Harness buckles and all, sat up and facing forward.

  3. The 3D model

    The keyring loop is part of the sculpt, not glued on after.

  4. On his keys

    The finished black dog keychain in its red harness, held up against trees and blue sky

    Small enough to forget about, until you look down.

Pet figurine · 4 cm

Two kittens who would never sit still together

Teresa sent one photo of each, both taken over an open laptop, because that is where kittens are. On the finished piece they're sitting side by side on one base, which is more than they ever managed for a camera.

  1. One photo of each

    A grey and white kitten standing on an open laptop, looking at the camera A brown tabby kitten lying in front of a laptop, looking at the camera

    Both taken over the same laptop, weeks apart.

  2. The preview

    Preview render of the two kittens sitting side by side as one piece

    Sat together on one base, each with their own markings.

  3. The 3D model

    Turned and approved before a single print started.

  4. In her hands

    The two finished kitten figurines on one base, held in front of white orchids

    Hand-finished, and photographed next to the orchids.
