Custom Miniatures, Built Around Your Vision
How Your Custom Miniature Comes to Life
We’ve designed a structured process to make sure your miniature isn’t just “good enough” — it’s exactly what you imagined (and maybe a little more, because, well… designers can’t resist adding tiny details).
Step 1 — Share Your Idea
Send us your concept, sketches, or reference images. The more we have, the better — trust us, vague descriptions like “it’s a wizard… but cooler” might send our sculptors on a quest with no XP reward.
Once we understand your idea, we’ll send you a detailed quote. If it’s a match, we’ll secure your slot with a 50% upfront payment.
Step 2 — Sculpting Your Miniature
Here’s where the magic happens. Sculpting is our favorite dungeon to explore — full of hard surfaces, flowing cloths, and the occasional rogue muscle group.
01
Base Sculpt
We build the full character in a neutral pose:
- proportions
- main shapes
- hard-surface elements
Approval Required
02
Pose Definition
We bring the character to life:
- stance
- balance
- expression through movement
Approval Required
03
Dynamic details
We refine elements affected by movement:
- cloth and folds
- muscles and tension
- secondary shapes
No major changes at this stage
04
Final Validation
We review everything before production
- Last opportunity for minor adjustments
- Final approval before printing
Approval Required
- Each stage is approved before moving forward
- Approved stages are not revisited
- Small refinements are included
- Major changes may require additional work
Time Investement
8–20 hours of focused sculpting
1–2 weeks including feedback and revisions
Where Craft Meets Function
This structured process ensures your miniature is both visually accurate
and technically ready for production
Step 3 — Preparing for Print
Before your miniature can see the light of day, we make sure it’s technically ready:
- Pieces are watertight and properly joined.
- Smart splitting for optimal printing with minimal supports.
- STL files are exported and tested.
- If you find any issues while slicing at home, we fix them.
Simple models can be prepared in a couple of hours, more complex ones may take up to 8 hours. Every minute ensures a smoother quest for your printer.
Step 4 — Optional: Printing and Painting
You can add these options at any point — you don’t need to commit upfront. See Materials & Finishes and our Painting Gallery for examples.
Printing
- Printed in DLP (resin) for miniatures and FDM for larger figures.
- Post-processing includes removing supports, sanding, and cleaning imperfections.
Painting (Tabletop Level)
- Priming for adhesion
- Matte miniature paints applied
- Protective varnish
Step 5 — Shipping
- Miniatures are packed safely in tins or boxes; larger figures are wrapped in bubble wrap with additional protection inside a sturdy cardboard box.
- All shipments include tracking.
- If anything arrives damaged, we’ll replace the necessary parts — no need for extra quests to recover lost pieces.
WHY THIS PROCESS MATTERS
Every stage ensures your miniature is not only visually accurate but also functional, printable, and durable. It’s like having a carefully balanced RPG character: the stats matter, but the story is what makes it epic.
