We sculpt
people.

A photograph is a file. We turn it into an object, modelled in 3D, printed in premium resin, painted by hand in our Kathmandu studio.

Drag to turn it

Our own mark, modelled and lit the way we light a commission. Everything that leaves the bench starts as geometry like this.

What we do

Two workshops, one team.

We make objects you can hold, and images that move. The artists who sculpt your figurine are the ones who animate it.

In the workshop

Printed & painted

Animated & composited

How it works

Four steps. Nothing prints without your yes.

  1. Studio paint bench with pots of acrylic paint, a mixing palette and a reference photo on a phone

    01

    Send your photos

    Two or three clear photos on WhatsApp. Front and side if you have them. Ordinary phone photos are enough.

  2. Unpainted grey resin print of a man with folded arms resting on a workbench beside brushes

    02

    We sculpt the model

    Our artists build the likeness by hand in 3D and send a preview render. You ask for changes until it is right.

  3. Hands holding a Ganesh statue while a fine brush picks out detail on the robes

    03

    Print, paint, finish

    Printed in premium resin, then cured, sanded and hand-painted at the bench in Kathmandu.

  4. Hand-painted 3D printed figurine of a young girl sitting cross-legged on a round base engraved with her name

    04

    Boxed and delivered

    Protective packaging, delivered across Kathmandu Valley or couriered anywhere in Nepal.

Kulman GhisingRaw print, pre-paint

Standards

The likeness has to be unmistakable.

That was the brief when we sculpted Kulman Ghising. It is the same brief for a birthday figurine of a five-year-old.

Premium materials

High-detail resin and durable filament, not the brittle prints that chip on the first knock.

Handcrafted with precision

Every model is sculpted, sanded and painted by hand. Nothing leaves the studio half-finished.

Realistic or toon

Lifelike likeness or a playful stylised version. Your call, on every piece.

Print and screen, one team

The artists who sculpt your figurine can animate it too. Rare in Nepal, and it shows.
