Commissions

We undertake all kinds of projects to a client's specifications,
especially the construction of model farms or houses based on the owner's real life buildings.

Working on the largest model farm constructed to date measuring 32½ square feet.

This model was based on Wraysholme Tower Farm
near Grange-over-Sands, Cumbria.
It featured a medieval pele tower, farmhouse, cowsheds with removable rooves,
sliding doors & contoured base.

In tribute to Debbie Shaw

The delighted new owner !

We also specialise in making models of a client's own real life dwelling.
This is a 1:24 scale hand painted model (not dolls house) of client's Georgian home in Devizes, Wilstshire.

Two of these model farms (1:32 scale) were made as representations of the Northumberland working farm
on which well-known children's illustrator/author Kim Lewis lives.
Her books tell simple stories of life on the farm and include "Floss", "Friends", Little Calf" and "Emma's Lamb".
The hand painted farms were commissioned by The Centre for The Children's Book, Gateshead.
One is currently on exhibition at the Shipley Art Gallery in Gateshead whilst the other is an integral
part of a travelling book roadshow touring the rural villages of Northumberland.

Sometime ago we made a range of model sports cars for use as shop display items for Mothercare UK. This is the prototype which was lost in the post - perhaps you know where it is now !
