Tam – Professional Scale Modeller | Custom Builds, Repairs & Restoration
I’m Tam – a passionate scale modeller, content creator, author and lifelong hobbyist based in Spalding, UK. What started as a sincere love for assembling and detailing scale models has grown into something I’m proud to do every day – and yes, I’m pretty sure my YouTube channel and my slightly elevated blood pressure go hand in hand!
I don’t claim to be a “master modeller” – I do this work simply because I love it, and I’ve been told I’m rather good at it too.
Some say “sticking bits of plastic together” isn’t a proper job – and I agree it never feels like hard work when you enjoy every minute of it. Being able to earn a living from what I love is just a wonderful bonus.
I take on commissioned scale model builds for clients who want expertly crafted models made for them.
I also provide model repair, renovation and restoration services – including work for museums, collectors and heritage organisations.
Whether you’re looking for someone to build a scale model for you, restore a treasured piece, or repair a damaged model, I can help.
I also run a YouTube channel where I share my work, techniques and projects – and I’m open to collaborations with other creators, brands and industry partners.
Planes, trains and automobiles, tanks and boats as well!
YouTube Channel & Content – You can find all my latest work, guides and projects right here on my YouTube channel.
I share hints, tips, kit reviews and full build videos to help you get the best results from your own models, or simply to enjoy seeing projects come together.
My favourite subjects are aircraft and armour models – but you’ll also regularly see me working on Warhammer miniatures, car models, custom scratch builds and detailed dioramas.

BF109 Specialist – Custom Builds, Restoration & Dioramas
Based in Spalding, Lincolnshire, I am a dedicated BF109 scale model specialist – this is a subject I have loved building for as long as I’ve been modelling.
Whether you want a BF109 custom built from scratch, an existing model restored, or a complete BF109 diorama created, I can help. I work across every variant – from the very first prototypes, through the classic versions, right up to the BF109 Kurz and Zwilling – in any scale you require.
I can finish your model exactly how you imagine it: pristine factory-fresh condition, or authentically weathered to show sandstorms, snow, mud, oil stains, or even a crash scene set within a detailed diorama. I deliver historically accurate detail down to the smallest oil streak, or can create fully custom, imaginative finishes – yes, I’ll even paint it bright pink if that’s what you want!
If you are building a BF109 yourself and need guidance, reference material or practical advice, I’m also happy to share my knowledge and experience to help you get the very best result from your project.
