Custom Corner: A Wedding Wish from Tiana + Naveen
Fairytales can come true, it all depends on you. So reads the wise words of Princess Tiana’s father, and with this jazzy fairytale dancing through, we can see that they ring true. This 9″ Vinylmation featuring Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen on their wedding day, created by Mark J. Hoffmann, is a blissful figure full of heartfelt joy and whimsy and love.
Hoffmann is not new to the custom Vinylmation game, having created tens if not hundreds of expertly crafted custom Vinylmations over the last several years. Four years ago, Hoffmann had a blank Vinylmation sitting around, itching for a painted makeover and, after waiting a year to be used, Hoffmann finally took the plunge and created his first custom. He quickly became hooked, loving the process so much he couldn’t wait to design another, creating custom vinyls featuring Disney Princesses, the seven dwarfs, and more. When contacted for a “The Princess and the Frog”-themed wedding gift, Hoffmann knew he wanted to focus on Tiana and Naveen’s wedding day, featuring the happy Disney couple holding each other on the vinyls face, the lily pads on the back representative of their web-footed journey.
Like Princess Tiana says, if you do your best each and every day, good things are sure to come your way. Hoffmann surely brings his best game to this vinyl, with a depiction of the characters so well painted it seems effortless, and a whimsical style that never pulls away from the Disney film he was inspired by. The result is a gorgeous mouse-eared representation of love and wishes coming true. Here’s to another fairytale ending!
