If you tried to get in touch with the team over the last quarter of 2021, you might have had a tough time as we were all a little busy….

Over the course of a few months we delivered one of our most complicated builds for some time. It would be large, detailed and for a client a very long way away. In fact, we’d never meet or even talk to the client. This is the story of how it all came about.

I love working on projects that are a bit out of the ordinary, and this one definitely hit that mark. A friend asked if we could make a special present for his wife’s birthday. She loves Sugar Skulls and he was arranging various parts of her birthday celebrations around that theme.

I thought this was a really interesting idea, using a fun and colourful medium to represent the essence of sugar skulls as a joyful celebration of life and love.

Allison Sparks of the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders Museum had seen the bespoke figures we had created for the Bannockburn, Alloa Tower and Culross House visitor sites, and she was interested in seeing if we could work together on some figs. The Museum was undergoing a major overhaul and planned on re-opening in Summer 2020. As with everything that was delayed by the pandemic, but they have just re-opened to the public (with some COVID restrictions still in place) and we’ve been delighted to be part of their story.
