Project Overview
A development project that takes character design through three-dimensional translation, structure and finishing, and shows the resulting production system across the full range of formats.
Project Brief
Translate professional character identities into production-ready sculpted figurines, covering three-dimensional development, structure and finish control.
Development Approach
Work from pose and proportion translation to base stability and support points, part splitting and assembly, then sculpt and colour samples with defined hand-paint boundaries.
Completed Collection
The 18 items produced by this method, presented as a single body of evidence rather than a catalogue of separate products.
Final Product Collection
The formats produced through this project are shown together so the development method can be reviewed item by item: 18 items across sculpted figurines, packaged versions, portable accessories, recognition pieces and retail packaging.

Design Consistency
Consistency is controlled through the development method: proportion, structure, colour and finish are defined once and applied to every format.
A Consistent Character System
- Role-specific uniforms and equipment provide immediate character recognition.
- Firefighter red and gold, healthcare blue, police black and gold, and military camouflage distinguish occupations while maintaining a coordinated presentation.
- Simplified character proportions connect dimensional figurines with compact keychains and pins.
Presentation Range
- Shield, star, eagle and medical symbols extend recognition themes into metal and PVC formats.
- Dark presentation packaging keeps the collection visually consistent in retail and gifting contexts.
- Each format shares the character language while its own material and production route are developed separately.
Designed for Production
The production methods that turn the designs into repeatable, shippable products.
Material & Process Considerations
- Figurine wall thickness, undercuts, component joints, tool support and base stability.
- Paint boundaries, repeatable colours and fragile protrusions.
- Keychain attachment points, ring closure and pull strength.
- Badge relief depth, colour separation, plating and back attachment.
- Coin relief, edge treatment and surface finish.
- PVC patch thickness, raised borders, flexible relief and backing options.
- Window-box insert fit, product retention and abrasion protection.
Confirmed Before Mass Production
- Figurine dimensions, material and base construction confirmed against the approved sample.
- Paint references and finish agreed from the painted sample.
- Metal items: alloy, plating and back attachment confirmed with the sample.
- Patch construction and backing confirmed against the physical sample.
- Packaging insert, protection and packing method verified on the packed sample.
The images document the finished formats; they do not evidence exact alloys, plating, enamel types, patch compounds or packaging materials, which are confirmed per project and sample.
Customisation Options
The collection is developed from the customer’s own service theme, so the following elements can be adapted for a different organisation or programme.
Customisation is agreed from the artwork; final dimensions, materials, finishes, plating and packaging are confirmed during sampling.
