• Jim Rogers Sculpture Home "Jim Rogers Sculpture Studio has been in business since 1985. We can bring just about any 2d artwork to 3d form. When most people take their kids to the toy store, or the local fast food restaurants so that Junior can get a burger or taco and the latest giveaway toy, they usually don't give any thought as to how that toy came to be. If they do, they probably assume that it was designed and manufactured all by computers. Increasingly, more products are being prototyped that way, however most are still sculpted by hand. Our goal is to produce grade A sculpts for the toy and collectible industries, in short time frames, and at reasonable costs. We do some machining and model making as well as silicone rubber molds, urethane resin casts, and working samples. "
