model making

I guess you could say we made this as a love-letter to makers and making. Over the past four years and with the help of an amazing crew, my wife Lindsay and I created a new kids series for Canadian broadcaster TVOkids, brought to life with puppets and model miniature effects. It stars...

Hi :) Just finished my Moose-kit and I loved the build from start to finish. I've added some printed part such as the grenade-shells, the casings, the Police droid sawed off leg, the scorpion and sand-lizard and some missing parts not were missing from my kit on the minigun. Came out pretty...

I have always loved this film and especially this single wooden tower. There's a few places I dream of building one day, but I thought this one would be a nice place to begin. It's made at 28mm scale for table-top RPGs. I built it out of basswood, air-drying clay and white twine. I lost...

I’m currently a Model Making student at the National Film and Television school just outside London. Over the last five and a half weeks we have been busy building a 1:8 scale replica of base set from the film MOON. This was our first team project which was lead by John Lee (who actually...

With Scotland sitting in another three week lockdown, I thought I'd keep myself busy with another project. With 2020 marking Ray Harryhausen's Centenary, I decided to pay tribute to an iconic stop motion character! Made with scrap wood and sculpted with Milliput epoxy putty in my garage...

Hi everyone! Here is a look at my 1:8 scale Eaglemoss DeLorean. I was lucky enough work on the restoration team of the original A-Car, so I modeled this one after that car. I also was lucky enough to shoot the reveal trailer for that car back when it was completed, so I have riffed on my own...

Hello all, I really want to start doing more model building, specifically scratch building. I love the look of scratch built models made for older sci-fi films like Blade Runner and Star Wars. I think the super custom and unique models would be extraordinarily fun to make and be able to...

Hi all, I have decided to start my first large-scale model building project, a miniature city. There isn't a specific scale for the city set rather I am just trying to have it feel real because it will mainly be shot in dark scenarios. The concept is that it is a floating city because of...
