My name is David, I’m 61 and live in Staffordshire. I work as a Programme Director for a global logistics organisation. Outside of work I obviously enjoy making models, following all sorts of sports and enjoying my Grandchildren

The big project
Having done a large number of manufactured kits I started to want to do something different and I decided to build a model for my very elderly father-in-law who is a passionate cricket supporter so my first custom build is my variation on Worcestershire County Cricket Club Pavilion. Project will be updated on a weekly basis
Custom Commission Builds
Occasionally I accept commissions for bespoke miniature builds and book nook scenes.
These projects are individually designed and built by hand, and are typically suited for collectors or special display pieces.
If you have an idea for a custom build, you’re welcome to reach out to discuss the project.
