Custom figurines inspired by your photo

A goal celebration. A favourite pose. Two people who belong in the same picture. Formacara turns your idea into a custom 3D-printed figurine in single-colour PLA, for a desk, a shelf or a gift with a personal story.

Start with the person and the moment you want to capture. Tell us what matters: a gesture, an outfit, a ball or the way two people stand together. We’ll discuss what can work at the size you have in mind.

Made to express a shape and a story

Your figurine is printed in a single PLA filament. Its shape and chosen finish create the character of the piece. It does not reproduce the separate colours of skin, clothing or accessories from your photograph.

A marble-like finish is an effect in the filament, not a stone sculpture. Different finishes can change the look of the same form. The available choice for your project will be confirmed during your enquiry.

Our guide to choosing a photo for your figurine explains how to show the face, pose and details clearly.

From a photo to a clear proposal

Tell us your idea. Use the contact form to describe the person, occasion and pose. Include your preferred size and delivery country if you know them.

Choose the right reference. A clear face and an easy-to-understand pose help us assess the project. Additional photographs may help explain details hidden in the main image. We’ll clarify which pictures are useful for your subject.

Agree the details. Size, finish, price and delivery options are discussed for your particular request. An illustrative preview can help show the idea; it is not a photograph of the finished print.

For birthdays, couples and sporting moments

A figurine can celebrate a player’s favourite sport, a coach’s contribution or a birthday that deserves something personal. A couple’s pose can also become a gift for a wedding or anniversary.

Fine accessories, outstretched arms and more than one person need particular care. Their suitability depends on the design and size, so we check what can be made before confirming the project.

Questions before you begin

Do I need a body scan? The design starts from photographs and your description. The views needed depend on your subject.

Will it be an exact copy of the photograph? A figurine is an interpretation. Hidden areas, small details and the print size affect the result, so an exact likeness cannot be promised.

Can I have a full-colour figurine? The current offer uses one PLA filament and one colour for the whole piece. The selected surface finish is part of its appearance.

How big can it be? Share the size you have in mind. We’ll assess it alongside the pose and details rather than promise that every design works at every size.

What will it cost, and when can it arrive? These depend on your request. Include the destination and any event date so that the available options can be discussed.
