SKILLED ARTISANS
ModelWorks Direct is a designer and creator of hand-made models built from scratch by expert craftsmen, model-builders, and fabricators. What does custom-made mean? Our skilled artisans are well-versed in copying from photos or images as well as available blueprints. All our customized models are painstakingly hand-carved using solid and high-quality wood. In addition to that, they are painted by hand. Therefore, our craftsmen take care of even the smallest details. Clients also have an option of providing digital pictures and indicate their preferences regarding colors and other specificaitions.
Unparalleled Expertise in Crafting Precision Models
At ModelWorks, our team of seasoned artisans brings decades of experience to every project. While we’re a dynamic startup, our innovative model-builders have earned acclaim as top-tier creators of aircraft, ship, and custom vehicle replicas.
Direct Craftsmanship
We specialize in DIRECT model creation, ensuring each airplane replica model and aircraft display model meets exact customer specifications. Our craftsmen, with nearly 30 years of collective experience, have produced desktop airplane models for global corporations and distinguished individuals alike.
Affordable Excellence
We’re committed to delivering classic-looking wooden aircraft models and airplane collectibles at competitive prices. Our satisfaction guarantee includes a full refund if you’re not completely satisfied. Each ModelWorks creation is infused with passion and crafted with soul.
Masterpieces Without Compromise
Quality is never sacrificed, even at our accessible price points. We craft each model from scratch, eschewing pre-made kits. In fact, we often supply models to other creators. For example, while a large custom aircraft model typically retails between $3,500 and $4,000, we offer the same quality for just $2,500 – a substantial saving of $1,000 to $1,500.
