Custom Figurine Process: Brief to Delivery

Follow four stages: clarify the brief, coordinate manufacturer assessment and quotation, review samples, then coordinate production and delivery.

Clarify the brief

Share character references, intended use and known size and quantity. We organise missing information, rights notes and desired appearance into an assessment brief.

Manufacturer assessment and quotation

Coordinate partner assessment of materials, construction, finishing and packaging. Clarify assumptions for tooling, sampling and production costs. Mark unresolved items as pending rather than treat estimates as final quotations.

Sampling and sample approval

Agree paid scope, sample deliverables and revision terms before sampling begins. Record feedback on proportions, colour, assembly and finish to establish an approved reference for subsequent work.

Production and delivery coordination

After sample approval, quotation and written terms, follow production communication, change records, packaging and delivery arrangements. Inspection scope, responsibilities and transport terms follow the project agreement.

Good ideas deserve to exist.

Partner process references

Partner-provided materials illustrate digital sculpting, injection moulding, polishing, painting, pad printing, resin work, unpainted-part handling and packaging. FigureCloud turns requirements into project questions and coordinates relevant assessment and approvals. Not every project uses every process.
