The build process

What goes into a £20 frame.

Source the data

I download the map data for the stadium and the streets around it, so the layout of the real ground is the starting point.

Build it in Blender

The stadium is built by hand in Blender, stand by stand, with the surrounding buildings and terrain, scaled to fit the frame. It is slow, painstaking work, and it’s where the detail comes from.

Print in resin

The finished model is prepared for printing and printed in resin, which captures the fine detail of roofs, stands and streets.

Finish and paint

Each print is cleaned up and finished in white by hand, and the backdrop is painted in the club colours.

Turf and frame

A grass-effect pitch is added by hand, then the model is mounted in a deep white 18cm × 18cm shadow box and packed for Royal Mail.

Any place in the world

Not just stadiums. The same process makes custom location maps of anywhere that matters to you: a first home, a wedding venue, the place you met. They come with a pin on the spot, your own words and a date. Ask us about a custom frame.
