About
A small studio with an unusually wide bench.
A creative 3D printing studio specialising in custom couple and family miniatures, personalised avatars and unique 3D-printed creations.
Photographs are easy to lose.
A phone holds thousands of pictures and shows almost none of them. The moments that matter most, a first birthday, a wedding day, a family finally in the same frame, get scrolled past. We wanted to give people a way to put one of those moments back into the room.
So Avatar Studios Pvt. Ltd. was built around a simple idea: take an ordinary photo, sculpt it properly in 3D, and hand back something you can pick up. No stock poses, no generic body with a face pasted on. Every avatar is modelled to the person in the picture. their build, their outfit, their haircut, the ball they never put down.
That standard scales in both directions. We have sculpted deity statues for homes and temples, commemorative portraits of public figures, collectibles for shops, and prototypes for businesses that just needed a part printed properly.
Because our artists already work in 3D, we produce animation, motion graphics and visual effects as well. The same character we print for your shelf can walk across a screen in your campaign film.

Hand-painted in Kathmandu
Four things we will not cut corners on.
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.
Most of the work happens before the printer starts.
Sculpting the likeness is the slow part, and it is the part that decides whether your family recognises the figure on the shelf.
