Well i started printing back in late 2024 it was something id been contemplating for some time, and then finally took the plunge and began my journey.

At that point this was purely for pleasure and personal use, enjoying the ups the downs and the mistakes along the way.

Whilst on this journey i discovered that i liked Blood red skies by Warlord games, this coupled with my love of aircraft in general seemed a good fit.

whilst exploring i discovered some really nice plane designs on Patreon and that started my path to where i am today.

After a lot of printing i found that i had got to a reasonably good standard with my prints and was very happy.

So why start a business and sell them ?

I help out a friend who owns Sheppey Models who travels to most of the wargaming shows in the uk and whilst at these shows noticed that there arent many aircraft being sold at these events.

Could this be an opportunity to start something ?

i spent three months mulling it over and decided to get the ball rolling in march of this year so i paid for the license from Plane Printer and here we are.

its built up over 6 months ive had to buy another resin printer and now need a website.

So what do i offer ?

i currently print predominently 1/200th scale aircraft that are suitable for Blood red skies but also offer a range of aircraft in 1/144th scale which are suitable for Flames of war and Tema yankee.

As mentioned and shown in the Portfolio i have also printed these in 1/100th for Milton Hundreds Sword beach table and they came out very nice.

i am open to scaling these at varying scales depending on what peoples needs are if you would like something specific message me and i will see if i can help.

so if youve read this and lasted this long please go take a look and see if anything takes your interest.

this is my first time creating a website so be gentle with me any feedback is appreciated.

This section wouldnt be complete without a big thank you to Roman Troyan who is the designer behind these wonderful prints and it is his patreon that i am using for these Plane Printer.
