Large-Format 3D · FRP · Sculptural Props

Approved creative in.
Production-ready reality out.

FORMERA helps agencies, artists, designers and production partners turn defined characters, product forms and sculptural concepts into buildable objects—resolving scale, structure, sections, surface and shipment through our Shanghai engineering and production center.

Built behind your creative team

We do not compete for the idea.
We make the difficult object buildable.

Your team owns the client, creative direction and approvals. We develop the manufacturing package, sample logic, production controls and protected handoff. White-label and disclosed production support are both available.

One controlled path

From source file
to protected shipment.

Every visual object is treated as a production system: what the audience sees, what carries the load, how sections connect and how the finished surface survives delivery.

01

Approved creative

Reference art, dimensions, finish intent and use conditions.

02

Digital development

Model cleanup, scale review, sectioning and production geometry.

03

Structure & form

Internal support, molds, FRP layup or large-format printed sections.

04

Surface system

Joining, sanding, primer, texture, paint and protective coating.

05

Assembly & QC

Fit, stability, color, close-range detail and photo evidence.

06

Protected delivery

Separated modules, hardware, wrapping, crates and assembly guidance.

Real production footage

Two forms.
Two different build logics.

The media below is used once, in the context where it proves the engineering and production sequence. Poster frames come from the same footage so finish color and project identity remain consistent.

01 / Oversized product replica

White body to finished surface.

A large product form moves through body refinement, repeated hand sanding, surface preparation and a controlled high-gloss finish. The final color shown here is the same color carried through the video and its cover frame.

  • Large curved FRP body
  • Fine texture retention
  • Edge and opening refinement
  • Primer, color and clear finish

02 / Branded event character

Digital model to modular mascot.

A character and racket are resolved as separate fabrication systems: digital geometry, divided printed or molded parts, internal structure, hand finishing, surface color, assembly, inspection and protective crating.

  • 3D model and dimensional review
  • Sectioning and internal support
  • Separate body, limb and racket parts
  • Assembly, QC and delivery protection

What engineering resolves

The form is only
the visible layer.

Scale changes everything. The production plan has to account for weight, wall thickness, internal load paths, handling, surface continuity and the final delivery route.

01

Model & section strategy

Source geometry is cleaned, scaled and divided around equipment limits, structural needs, visible seams and transport dimensions.

02

Structure & material choice

FRP, printed shells, foam, steel, wood and hybrid reinforcement are selected around quantity, use conditions and required finish.

03

Surface & color control

Sample panels establish texture, sheen and color before large surfaces move through primer, paint and protective coating.

04

Assembly & pack-out

Parts are test-fitted, labeled and protected with the hardware, templates, crates and guidance needed at destination.

Responsible production

Approved assets.
Clear authorization.

FORMERA engineers and produces from client-approved creative, models and brand standards. We do not claim ownership of third-party brands or characters, and we do not license intellectual property on a client’s behalf.

Before release, the project record should identify the authorizing party, intended use, quantity, destination and approval owner.
