Digital sculpting from your photo
A sculptor builds the likeness on screen, working from your photograph — bone structure first, then the details that make it read as that person and no one else.

Commissions from the atelier
Each piece below began as a single photograph. Sizes and painting hours are as delivered.
The craft
Four hands-on stages, in our European atelier
Nothing is automated between your photograph and the box it arrives in.
3D print in premium resin
The approved sculpt is printed in fine-detail resin, then cleaned, cured and sanded by hand so the surface takes paint the way a primed canvas does.
Hand-painting by our artists
Skin tones are layered by brush, wet into wet, over 12+ hours per piece. Eyes and hairlines are painted last, under a lamp, with the reference photo alongside.
Quality check & gift packaging
Two people check the piece against your photo before it is sealed, boxed in satin lining with the artist's card, and handed to the courier.
Likeness
From your photo. Exactly.

Illustrative examples of the pieces we make. Commissioned work is shown as it is completed.
Craftsmanship
Painted by hand. Never printed.
Every sculpture leaves our European atelier only after a trained artist has hand-painted it — skin tones layered by brush, not sprayed by machine.
It's the difference between a keepsake and a knick-knack, and it's why collectors trust us with the faces that matter most.

Two likenesses, one piece — sculpted from a photo you both love.
Mini-Me
A miniature of yourself, or of a child at the age you never want to forget.
Pet Owners
Their markings, hand-painted by brush — not printed approximations.
Corporate Awards & Retirements
A recognition piece that outlives any engraved plaque.

Client notes
What people say when it lands on the shelf
“I sent one photo of my grandmother and the paintwork on her eyes is exactly right — it doesn't look printed at all.”
“We commissioned five retirement busts and every one came back with the right likeness on the first preview.”
“The hairline and the fold of the collar were hand-finished — that's the detail I judge a studio on.”
Illustrative examples. Verified client photos and reviews are added as they are collected.
Questions
What clients ask before commissioning
If your question isn't here, write to the atelier — a person answers.
How accurate is the likeness?
Accurate enough that people recognise the person before you tell them. We sculpt bone structure and proportion from your photo, and you see a digital preview from several angles before anything is printed. If the preview is not right, we adjust it until it is.
What photo should I send?
One clear, well-lit photo where the face is unobstructed — no sunglasses, no heavy shadow across the features. A straight-on or slight three-quarter angle works best. Extra photos from other angles help, but they are optional, not required.
How long does it take?
Production runs 2–3 weeks from the moment you approve your preview (3–4 weeks for the largest pieces), plus shipping time to your country. Preview renders are usually ready within a few days of your order.
Can I request changes to the preview?
Yes. The preview stage exists for exactly that. Tell us what looks off — the jaw, the hairline, the expression — and we revise the sculpt and send it again. We do not print until you say yes.
What sizes are available?
Four standard heights, measured including the base: 8″ (20 cm), 10″ (25 cm), 12″ (30 cm) and 14″ (35 cm). Larger collector formats are possible on request — write to support@sculptuvo.com before ordering.
Do you ship to my country?
We ship worldwide, tracked and cushioned in a rigid box. Duties and import taxes, where they apply, are set by your country and are not included in the price.
What if I don't like it?
You approve the preview before we print, which prevents most problems. If the delivered piece still does not match what you approved, we re-do it free of charge — that is the re-do guarantee, and it covers the painting as well as the sculpt.
Can you sculpt pets or multiple people?
Yes to both. Pets are sculpted and painted the same way faces are, markings included. Multiple people share one base and are quoted at the larger formats depending on how many figures and how much detail the composition needs.
