Napoleon Bonaparte

French Empire, 1812

Why ME23D

A small workshop. A real artist. Your face on the shelf.

We are not a generator and we are not a factory. Each figurine is built from your photo, hand-finished, photographed for your approval, then shipped.

10,000+

Figurines created

Years of process refinement on real subjects — from historical portraits to family photos to working dogs.

Wisconsin

Made by hand

A cabin in the middle of nowhere. One artist. A technique developed over a lifetime of design work, not a factory line.

Minutes

First preview

You see a render of your figurine in minutes, not days. Approve the look before we put a brush to anything.

Approved

Before it ships

Every finished piece is photographed and sent for your sign-off. If it’s wrong, we fix it. If it’s damaged in transit, we replace it.

About the technique

The ME23D process was built by a lifelong artist and designer working from a small cabin in northern Wisconsin. It is not licensed from anyone. It is not a generic AI service. Every step from photo to print to brush has been tuned for one thing: producing a recognizable likeness at hand-scale.

Start your build

Your subject. Your scene. Your figurine.

Upload a photo. Add a reference image if you want a specific look. Choose the size, occasion, and group. We render a preview in minutes, you approve, then it goes to the cabin to be printed and painted.

Before you submit

  • A clear, well-lit photo gives us the strongest likeness.
  • The reference image is optional — use it to show costume, scene, or transformation direction.
  • Pre-ship photo confirmation is included. If you don’t love it, we redo it.

Submission Form

Send your project

Use the number from your paid design-fee order so we can match this request to the purchase.

Upload the main subject image. This should show the person, pet, or primary subject clearly.

Upload a second image showing costume, character inspiration, outfit, pose mood, or transformation direction.

Group composition

How many subjects are in the figurine. Each adds a small fee; groups of 5+ are priced by quote.

Occasion

Helps us pick a base, pose, and packaging that matches the moment.

Size

Picking 6cm if you’re unsure — that’s our most-loved size for a personal figurine.

Style

Realistic preserves likeness most strongly; the other styles trade some likeness for a more distinct aesthetic.

Priority focus

Tell us what matters most if tradeoffs are needed.

Keep it practical. Call out the details that should survive into the final design direction.

Submissions opening shortly

We are finishing the build pipeline. Add your email in the banner above and we’ll let you know the day uploads open.

Bundles & group orders

One figurine, the whole family, or the whole wedding party.

Designed-in-batch projects share artist time, so the more figurines in one order, the lower the per-figurine price. Final pricing locks at the preview step, before any paint touches resin.
