When it comes to custom statues, every project tells a unique story. Last year, we had the pleasure of working with a client in the United States who wanted a one-of-a-kind cartoon character statue: a dog flying an airplane. From concept sketches to the finished product, our team guided the client through the entire process. This case study showcases how we bring ideas to life, and why customers worldwide choose us when searching for a reliable statue for sale.
1. Create Design Drawings
The project began with detailed design drawings. Based on the client’s theme and requirements, our design team transformed the idea into accurate sketches that reflected the playful personality of a cartoon dog pilot. Whether it’s custom life size statues for outdoor display or a custom small statue for indoor decoration, this stage ensures that the creative vision is clear before production begins.
2. Make Sectional Models
Once the design was approved, we started producing sectional models. The statue was divided into manageable pieces to maintain accuracy and efficiency. This method is especially useful for larger statues, such as custom life size statues, as it guarantees precise proportions while making production and transportation easier.
3. Assemble the Complete Model
After the sectional parts were completed, our craftsmen carefully assembled them into a full-size statue. This stage allows us and the client to inspect the overall shape, size, and details. For this project, the dog pilot character began to truly take form, showing its distinctive cartoon charm.
4. Apply Primer and Adjust Colors
With the model ready, we applied a primer coat to protect the fiberglass surface. Initial color adjustments followed, ensuring the tones matched the client’s design expectations. Whether for vibrant custom small statues or large outdoor pieces, this step is crucial for long-lasting results.
5. Refine Details
Next, our artisans refined every detail—polishing edges, adjusting curves, and enhancing facial features. The cartoon dog’s playful expression and the airplane’s sleek lines were carefully brought out. This stage highlights the craftsmanship that sets our custom statues apart from ordinary mass-produced products.
6. Apply Finish Paint
Finally, the statue was coated with durable finish paint. This not only ensures vivid colors but also provides protection against weather, UV rays, and scratches. The completed dog pilot statue stood tall, ready for installation at the client’s venue.
This project demonstrates the full process of creating a cartoon statue—from drawings to final painting. Our expertise allows us to handle projects of any scale, from custom life size statues that serve as park landmarks to custom small statues perfect for retail stores or themed spaces.
