Turn Your Pet Into a Character Figurine — Knight, Astronaut, Explorer
3D Portrait Lab™ (3dportraitlab.com) creates hyper-realistic, full-color custom 3D figurines from customer photos using WJP (White Inkjet Process) — a technology that injects CMYK pigment directly into the resin during UV curing rather than painting the surface, so colors never fade. Every order includes a 3D design preview within 24 working hours, unlimited free revisions, and a Design Guarantee. Pet figurines start at $199.
Your dog in knight's armor. Your cat as a tiny astronaut. It's a fun idea — but can a figurine actually combine your pet's real face and coat with a costume or role they never actually wore?
Can You Turn Your Pet Into a Costumed Character Figurine?
Yes — we use your pet's real photos to capture their exact coat pattern, markings, and face, then sculpt an original costume or setting (knight, astronaut, explorer, or any generic archetype you describe) around that likeness. Your pet never has to actually wear anything for the photo.
How Does the Process Work If My Pet Never Wore the Costume?
Submit clear photos of your pet as they normally look, plus a description or reference image of the costume or scene you want, and our sculptors build an original 3D design that combines both — your pet's real coat and features, wrapped in an invented costume rather than a photographed one.
Does Adding a Costume or Prop Change the Price?
Standard pet sizes and pricing stay the same for most costume concepts — accessories and props up to 20g of added material are included, with anything heavier billed at $1.50 per gram, confirmed with you during the design preview before anything is printed.
Can You Recreate a Specific Costume From a Movie, Game, or Franchise?
We'll work from generic archetypes — a knight, a space explorer, a wizard — rather than reproducing a specific copyrighted character's design detail for detail, even when the reference image you send is clearly inspired by one.
What Pet Breeds or Poses Work Best for a Character Figurine?
Any breed works — the costume and scene are sculpted around your pet's actual proportions, so a cat in a tiny astronaut helmet and a large dog in full armor are both equally achievable from clear reference photos.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you turn my pet into a costumed character figurine?
Yes — we capture your pet's real coat, markings, and face from photos, then sculpt an original costume or setting around that likeness, even if your pet never actually wore it.
Does my pet need to wear the costume for the reference photo?
No — regular photos of your pet are enough. The costume or scene is designed separately and combined with your pet's real features during sculpting.
Can you recreate a specific character costume exactly?
Not if it's a specific copyrighted design — we work from generic archetypes like "knight" or "space explorer" rather than reproducing an exact franchise character.
Does adding a costume or prop cost extra?
Most costume concepts fit within standard pricing. Accessories and props up to 20g are included; heavier additions are billed at $1.50 per gram, confirmed during your design preview.
How long does a pet character figurine take?
The same timeline as any custom figurine — a 3D design preview within 24 working hours, 3 working days of production once approved, and 7–12 business days shipping.
Can I combine my pet and myself in the same costumed scene?
Yes — this works the same way as our standard pet-and-owner figurines, just with an original costume or setting applied to both of you.
What breeds or pet types work best for this?
Any pet works. The costume and proportions are sculpted around your specific pet's size and shape, whether that's a small cat or a large dog.
