General
What are miniatures?
miniature noun
min·i·a·ture | \ ˈmi-nē-ə-ˌchu̇r , ˈmi-ni-ˌchu̇r \
A copy on a much reduced scale.
What scale do you work in?
I usually work in 1:12th scale but I have experience in 1:6th, 1:24th, 1:48th, and 1:144th scales.
How did you get started making miniatures?
I’ve loved miniatures ever since I was a child, but it wasn’t until college that I bought my first dollhouse kit. At the time, there weren’t a lot of unique or “adult” miniatures on the market so I began to make my own. I started a miniature dedicated Instagram in 2016 where I have grown my audience to almost 44k followers. I also have a Tiktok with a following of 470k.
Why “Panda” Miniatures?
Pandas are my favorite animal and it rhymes with my name- Amanda!
Commissions
Do you accept commissions?
Currently I am only accepting commercial, advertising, and TV/film production commission projects. If you have a personal commission request, I can recommend other miniaturists who may be available.
If you’d like to inquire about a commission, CONTACT me.
What are your rates for commissions?
This depends on the complexity of the miniature, my availability, and the project timeline. CONTACT me with your vision and I can give you a custom quote.
How long does take for you to make a miniature?
Like my rates, it depends on the complexity of the miniature and my availability. Miniature scenes can take me weeks or months or even years to complete. I recommend contacting me at least 1 month before your deadline.
If I want a commission, do I have to pay for it right away?
I require 50% of the total quote upfront before beginning a build. After I complete your miniature and have your approval through final images, you pay the remaining amount plus shipping before I ship it to you.
