I want a gift for my girlfriend that I think she would love, so I want to have unique custom made mini's of the characters we were using when we first met. Problem is they're an anthro cheetah and an anthro fox, which are not something easily achievable. I was wondering if anyone knew a site or an individual that works with customers to make custom mini's?
Edit: If not a place that can make the mini's, then maybe someone who does REALLY good paint jobs who can make a hero forge mini look very unique.
I know you mentioned it in your post, but they are really the only go-to site for custom minis that I have seen. Play with the options and you will be surprised at how unique you can make one look.
There is also Eldritch Foundry now, but they're still new and very few options. I wouldn't mind hero forge, i mean I'm fairly particular with what I want for example the fox should have three tails, but I could forgo some of that detail if I knew where to get it painted. I'm not great with crafts and I can't hold a pen steady let alone a brush. With hero forge I would need to get it painted by a professional, so the detail missing can be made up for. But I have no idea where to even look for that.
I have commissioned only one place to paint a mini for me. It was my first Heroforge mini, and it was for an iconic character of mine, so I wanted to give it the best treatment I could. I went with www.minipainterink.com and she did a great job.
I was originally going to use www.metalheadminis.com but they were really busy when I contacted them. They are the ones that referred me to minipainterink.

Why not look for someone who does commissions? I'm sure if you Google 3D Mini Figure commissions something should pop up.
