What we will Need: wherever practical, a personal visit to the subject of the commission is desirable. This would involve taking sketches, photographs and reference dimensions in order to complete an accurate sculpture.

However this is frequently not possible owing to the international nature of enquiries or as is very often the case, the person or animal to be sculpted is no longer alive. In such cases we need as much photographic information as possible together with some idea of dimensions or actual measurements if available. This applies equally to people, animals, places or things.

Regarding payment, we require a non refundable deposit of 20% followed by a further 50% on completion of the original prior to moulding and the final 30% prior to despatch of the completed figure. Each stage approval will be by emailed pictures or by personal visit, whichever is preferred or more convenient. Apart from the initial deposit, you will not be required to [pay for any work unless you are completely satisfied

Cost of Work: You might want a one off sculpture for your personal enjoyment or you might have a commercial project where you intend to reproduce the item in quantity. Either way, we we are happy to work with you, to develop your ideas into reality.

Price is totally dependant on the size and complexity of the subject matter. A 300 mm (12 inch') full figure piece might cost as little as £700.00. However, if facial likeness is paramount or complex clothing/equipment such as on military personell is present, the cost could easily double.

Portrait sculptures again are very demanding in terms of man-hours. We particularly specialise in this field. We can work from photographs or from life. Prices, as always, vary according to size, age of subject, complexity and of course finished media.

A typical half-life human portrait bust would be around £1200.00 in a resin bronze finish or £3500.00 in hot cast bronze life size to around £2,500 for a life size portrait.
