What is the Final Product?

Regardless of what I decide to base the characters I design on, the final product will ultimately be the same: I want to produce figures of the characters I design.

I've been looking at a lot of collectible figurines from small vinyl toys to specially made maquettes. I've looked into toys at threeA toys and also the animated style maquettes by Gentle Giant Ltd and Electric Tiki Design, which I'm quite fond of.

Creating sculptures like these would be an excellent way to show off my characters.
