How does it work?

First, you are digitally sculpted by hand based on your photo. No scan. That’s why not everything has to be visible in the photo. (such as the feet here, for example).

We sculpt you much like working with clay. Just digitally. Then you are printed in white using resin...

Afterwards, lovingly cleaned, hardened, and finally painted by hand with a mini brush...🎨 This couple with bouquet is in a 1:32 scale

For your 3D frame

For your 3D frames, object display frames and shadow boxes for cube shelves.

Here shown as an example in 1:32 with a handmade wooden walkway, a few little flowers, and it instantly looks completely different :)

Werner Schlothauer

I can recommend it to anyone looking for a special gift

I can absolutely recommend Shrinkme...

I had the honor of receiving a figure of my character Ian MacMahoon.

Let Schrumpfmich freeze moments for eternity for you.....So realistic like I had never seen before. Great work by genuinely talented model makers. Unique, in my opinion"

Biggi Mussil

We have three groups of 3 and 4 people each

to have it shrunk to a 1:24 scale as a Christmas gift for our 3 children and their families. The result was fabulous, and the delivery was faster than expected.

I was also delighted with the excellent support afterwards via e-mail, because I still had a few questions about the glue and further processing at home.

Even the backs of the figures (which of course cannot be seen in the photos) were perfectly crafted. I can only warmly recommend Schrumpfmich.de! These figures really make a very special gift!

Heinz Hofmann

"The delivered figures"

...are exactly as detailed as shown in the submitted photos. The faces are reproduced true to the original.

The scenes created with the modeled miniature people radiate identity and the desired moods.

I can only recommend the "Shrinkers" from Schrumpfmich! I'm already looking forward to the next project with figures from Schrumpfmich."

Guido Kruschke

"We’ve simply become amazing 😍

We Upper Bavarians as miniature figures in 1:87.

We really like ourselves as replicas and say THANK YOU to the great Schrumpfmich team 🤗🙏!

A clear recommendation from us - and more figure variations will definitely follow 😀!"

Sandra Langenmayr

"I got for my boyfriend for Christmas"

have a figurine of us made in size 1:87.

I can hardly put into words how impressed we were with the quality. My boyfriend was very happy. 1:87 really is very small, and despite that, the Schrumpfmich team recreated us almost perfectly.

The communication was also very friendly. Clear recommendation!"

Udo Schlemmer

Model Making Schlemmer says thank you for the great figurines

Whether for me personally or mainly for my customers, it is always a pleasure to work with you. 😊

So far, there hasn't been a single request from me that you couldn't make happen - quite the opposite, I was sometimes surprised by what's possible.
