Four paws. An unbreakable bond Bespoke pet figures in needle-felted wool
We do not need professional sessions or studio cameras. We only need clean natural light, frames at the height of their eyes and enough sharpness to read the gradation of their coat, the line of their gaze and their secret markings.
File review with no obligation
Do you only have old photos, or has your companion already gone? Do not rule out your case: our team analyses WhatsApp files, scanned printed photos and phone screenshots before confirming any booking.
Each frame plays an irreplaceable technical role during the needling and fibre-blending process.
01 / FACE
What we are looking for:
Luna’s exact olive green with an amber halo, the white chest peeking under the chin, the dark “M” pattern on her forehead and her white whiskers with black roots.
Tip for your photos:
Get down to their eye level; avoid foreshortened shots that distort the distance between their eyes and ears.
02 / SILHOUETTE
What we are looking for:
Luna’s profile showing the crisp white chest bib, the soft curve of the nasal bridge, the stop of the forehead and the base of her tabby ears.
Tip for your photos:
Place a treat or call their attention in front of a window so they keep their head raised and calm.
03 / COAT
What we are looking for:
The symmetry of Luna’s dark tabby coat from the nape (with the white neck ruff) to the black tip of her tail, essential for carding the wool.
Tip for your photos:
Take the photo from above while Luna is sitting or in sphinx pose with the tail extended or curled.
04 / QUIRK
What we are looking for:
The exact bow-tie shape of her immaculate white chest, her white paws with pink pads and the tabby flecks on her legs.
Tip for your photos:
Take advantage of when they are resting on linen or a blanket to photograph close up the contrast of white with brown.
Small changes when taking the photograph help capture the true colour of the merino wool fibres.
Luz natural diurna difusa
Near a window or on a shaded balcony. Coat colours show in their purest, truest tone.
Sharp focus on the coat
Tap the screen on their face before shooting so the coat texture does not blur from movement.
Send 4 to 8 varied frames
Different postures and times of day help triangulate the real morphology of your pet without ambiguity.
Tomas espontáneas cotidianas
Photographs taken where they are comfortable in their favourite spot are usually the ones that capture their real temperament best.
Direct camera flash
It flattens the bone volumes and produces a reflective artificial shine that distorts the tone of the iris completely.
Social media filters or retouching
Warm or high-contrast filters distort the ash, cinnamon or chestnut tones we need to dye into wool.
Backlight and dense shadows
If the light is behind the cat, its silhouette goes solid black and the anatomy of the coat cannot be studied.
Top-down shots taken from far above
Taking the photo standing while the animal looks up at you makes the body look stunted and the head huge.
The photographs are complemented by your words. You are the person who knows the secrets of their coat best: the notch in an ear, the tone of their paws or how their eyes change in midday sun.
Creation File #CAT-084
REVIEWED & APPROVEDCase Luna · Client Record Extract
Olive green with an inner amber ring depending on the light. Pronounced black lining on the lower eyelids.
Left ear with a small millimetre notch at the back tip (from their sterilisation). Long white inner tufts.
Chest marking in the shape of a crisp white bow tie that widens towards the left armpit. Pale pink pads with brown freckles.
A strongly marked dark dorsal line. The tail ends in exactly four closed black rings and a fully ebony tip.
No situation is foreign to us: every story and every file is unique.
We examine them carefully before formalising any charge. If clarity is missing on a particular angle or in the tone of the iris, we will write telling you precisely which shot is needed to reach the exact likeness.
We regularly work on posthumous memorials. We have recreated figures from family video captures or scanned paper photographs. We agree each uncertain area with you through guided, careful interpretation.
Absolutely yes! Short videos (5 to 15 seconds) where the cat walks, yawns or turns its head to the camera give the sculptor an incomparable three-dimensional understanding of its volume and coat fall.
We review your everyday photographs and guide you with complete honesty on the size and expression best suited to their wool figure.
