Once the design is ready, we’ll send over a proof for your approval. This preview shows how your pet’s portrait will come together — with line work indicating each distinct wood layer and painted section. On the back, you’ll find our logo, your pet’s name, and a custom message if you’d like to add one. The proof includes a simplified color map of the final piece. If you’ve chosen the blocky style, what you see will closely match the final result. If you’ve picked the detailed style, the proof offers a base color guide while the final product will include more nuanced shading and hand-painted depth.
