Custom mechanical portrait figures
Commission a caricature of a loved one that can actually move
Selberg Studios / Tim Selberg
Tim Selberg invites commissions for mechanically articulated portrait figures based on supplied photographs or an arranged reference session. The maker discusses realistic or caricatured likenesses, drawings for approval and optional mechanisms; this is a physical figure commission, not a hired ventriloquist appearance.
