Starting 1st of August 2025, custom mesh heads, custom lips, custom artwork will be discontinued and unavailable for purchase.

Shiva.vu has been offering custom services for years for a select number of people. I have enjoyed working on every single head and it has made my work in general improve. The decision to discontinue this service has not been easy, but it is necessary in order to allow me to focus on my work as a creator on IMVU and to develop other projects outside of IMVU.

I will still be actively creating on IMVU, so keep an eye out for products you might like.

 

Here are some statistics about Shiva.vu custom works created at the time of writing the article (11 July 2025):

Notes:

*  The longest mesh head took approximately 31-32 hours to create, including all revisions based on customer feedback. There were three feedback sessions, which together totaled around 31 hours of actual work time.

** The average creation time for a custom mesh head does not include the time spent on:

    • communicating with the customer,

    • stylizing the avatar for product icons,

    • showcasing the product,

    • researching mockups and reference images (e.g., of specific people or celebrities the customer wants the head to resemble).

This additional process typically takes 45 minutes to 2 hours per custom mesh head.

Your work will stay forever protected, meaning exclusive products will forever stay locked and unavailable for purchase, and limited products will always have a higher price for purchase, to limit the number of other possible owners.

I am deeply grateful to everyone who has ever placed an order for any kind of custom work! Your trust, vision, and support are what allow me to bring creativity to life with every project. Each request, no matter how big or small, is a piece of a shared artistic journey — and I feel truly honored to be part of it. Thank you for choosing me to turn your ideas into something unique and meaningful. ♥
