The first stage is to compile a collection of reference of the subject. In some cases it will be possible to meet the celebrity and take photographs and measurements of them. We also have a great deal of experience in working solely from photographs.

The portrait sculpture is built up slowly in clay by hand. I use the photographic reference and measurements to ensure an accurate sculpture. This is a crucial stage in the process and I welcome your involvement and feedback on the developing portrait likeness.
The body of the wax figure is either sculpted in clay or lifecast directly from a model. If the body is to be sculpted, clay is built up onto a metal armature to replicate the proportions and shapes of the subject's body.
If a lifecast is carried out, an appropriate model is selected and their body is cast using alginate and plaster. Alginate captures every detail of the model's skin.

The body is then cast in fibreglass to create a lightweight yet durable figure.
The first step in completing a celebrity wax figure is getting permission. Believe it or not, some celebrities have expressed no desire to be immortalized and touched by tourists years after they're dead.
Then comes the consultation, where the waxwork team meets with the subject and they discuss the position they'll need to pose in during the modeling process.
