Little figures, lots of late nights.

I sculpt characters, terrain and magnet bases, print them in resin and paint them by hand at my desk. You can buy the files and print them yourself, or ask me to make you something and I'll send it finished.

What I can make for you

It could be one painted hero or a whole table of terrain. Quotes are free, and I'll tell you upfront how long it'll take. Most jobs take two to three weeks.

3D sculpting

Characters · creatures · props

Send me a description or some artwork and I'll sculpt the figure for 25 to 32 mm. I split the parts where they make sense and set up supports that come off cleanly.

Sculpted adventurer figures, print-ready

Terrain modelling

Buildings · ruins · scatter

Terrain made to be played on. The pieces are modular with flat bases, and the walls are thick enough to survive being knocked off the table.

Resin printing

Your file or mine

I'll print your STL or one of my designs in high-detail resin. Every print is washed, cured and checked before it goes in the box.

Warlock figure, resin-printed and painted

Miniature painting

Tabletop to display

Anything from a solid tabletop job to a display piece with layered highlights, glow effects and a scenic base.

Magnet bases & toppers

25 to 60 mm · 60 × 30 mm

Sculpted toppers that clip onto magnetised bases. You can swap a figure between games and scenery styles without rebasing it.

Custom commissions

Concept to finished piece

I handle the whole job, from sketch to sculpt, print, paint and post. You'll get a photo at every stage.

How a commission works

How a commission goes

Brief

Tell me the scale, how many you need and when you need them, and send any references. A sketch on a napkin is fine.

Quote

I'll come back with a fixed price and a date, usually within two days. I don't start until you say yes.

Sculpt and print

You approve the sculpt from renders before anything gets printed. Then I test print, clean and cure it.

Paint

We agree on the colour scheme first. You get a photo halfway through and another before I pack it.

Ship

It goes out from Queensland, packed in foam and tracked. Digital files come as a download link.
