Creation Process
for cast bronze plaques
or
cast aluminum plaques |
This page describes
the steps involved in the creation of a 3 dimensional
sculpting for use on a cast plaque. Since we utilize
our own graphic artists and sculptors, when required
for special dedication dates, we can create a cast
plaque containing a 3 dimension hand sculpted image
in as little as 6 days from start to finish (a normal
schedule should be 8 to 12 weeks). We have done
this
numerous times, especially for military customers
and although this is a very risky and aggressive
schedule,
we have had 100% satisfactory results (we have never
missed a date or had an unsatisfied customer). |

Step 1 - We start with a photograph. Although we can
use almost any quality photograph, the better the image,
the better the modeling effort. Remember, the finished
image will be an artists interpretation of this photograph. |
 |
Step 2 - Our sculptors create a clay model of the
subject from the photograph. This is NOT a computer
generated image. It is done by a sculptor. An image
of this clay model is sent to you for your comments
or approval. |
 |
Step 3 - When approved, the clay model is used for
the bronze casting process. While the clay model is
a monotone, the finished bronze casting contains highlights
as shown on the left. |
All of our plaques are custom designed and custom manufactured.
You may order them as designed here (with your own words of
course), or with any design you desire. Since they are all
custom designed and manufactured, you can change the graphics
and words easily. If you see bronze plaques that you like,
feel free to fill out our ContactUs form or give us a call
- there is no a cost or obligation.
