Admiralty Model Works is a new Company which specializes in producing top quality custom models and prototypes of all subjects, and includes a range of model ship kits in 1/700 scale. From traditional methods to AutoCAD, 3D and Rapid Prototyping, we do it all. From wood, metal, resins or any other material, no project is too small, no matter what it may be.

Although Admiralty Model Works was established only in May 2007, I am skilled and well seasoned in the art of model-making and casting. My experience was built over 15 years, with a Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts and a Master Jeweller's Certificate from Europe. Skilled in the art of Jewellery Making, Architectural Models and Master Patterns my experience was gained and honed by working for only the best, including the top design studio in Pretoria, South Africa, where my jewellery pieces adorn the wives of Government Ministers and Ambassadors posted to South Africa.

Always interested in model making from childhood, I was soon branching out to this exciting field. With a passion for creating unique pieces of art I gained knowledge and experience by making models as a free lance agent. From small to large, sculptures and custom kit builds, there is very little that has not been done.

Our first model kit's were launched on May 19th, 2007, the Federal German Navy's Hamburg, D 181, 1965 and the Schleswig Holstein, D 182, 1985. They have met with a very good response from the modelling community. The future looks exciting.

Our motto is: "Secundus ad nullum", - second to none.

Thank you for visiting.
