AboutStudio Tour

Studio Tour

Bringing you the best 3d representations of your favorite pop culture icons is hard work…and we love every minute of it!

Each piece we create represents months, sometimes years, of dedicated planning and production. In this series, we take you behind the scenes to visit the central hubs of our creative process. From our Sixth Scale articulated figures to life-sized statues, meet some of the uniquely talented artists that make it all possible.

Whether you’re a long time fan or first time visitor, welcome to the Sideshow Studio Tour!
