Bringing Your Visions to Reality

Whatever model you need, our expert model makers are adept at bringing your vision to a perfectly formed reality. From miniature to life-size replica to oversized, we are confident that our models meet the specific requirements of each and every customer. We’ve created appearance and mechanical models, as well as historical replicas for museums. Models for events, exhibitions and filmsets. Models for simple personal enjoyment.

Our 3D models are widely used in the Marine, Aerospace, Engineering, Medical, Defence, Consumer and Arts industries. We can produce both desk-top and full-scale working models and prototypes.

Working closely with you, ensuring we get the model you desire

We might only ever get a picture. Or a simple sketch. Or the idea for the model might exist only in our customer’s mind. Our job is to ask the right questions and capture as much information as possible, so we can accurately translate the concept into a working model or prototype.

Some of our model making projects…

Full scale replica models

We were asked to produce a full-scale wood and GRP model replica of the Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft, which was used on the recruitment trailer for public events, and subsequently at RAF aircraft shows.

Wooden and plastic furniture

These full-scale form and function prototypes allow our manufacturing clients to check comfort levels and ergonomics prior to production. Plastic furniture design such as plastic chairs, beds and tables for prisons.
