1/4"=1' scale
48" x 12" x 11"
Large scale models are all about experiencing a place well before it actually exists. This scale affords us the opportunity to simulate colors and textures of materials in a highly realistic way that is often not practical at smaller scales. At Gemmiti Model Art, one of our mantras is “if you are going to do it, do it right!” Wood elements have to be made of wood (as opposed to painted acrylic), stone must have just the right number of over-sprays to get the proper depth, and details, such as railings and grates, have to be rigid, straight, and perfectly duplicated. Not only is the right tint on the windows important; the right degree of transparency is key to the overall effect of the model.
