We were asked to post personal favourite scratch built models handcrafted by Battlebirds Models. It's always a difficult choice as each model is built with so much attention to detail. With much thought, here are the ones to date. Each part handcrafted, no kit parts, no 3D printed parts and custom paint schemes and livery to clients specifications. We do not build models that are manufactured by the 100000s in Asia. The workmanship is individually made to the collector, Aviator, Aviation business or Airliners requirements and specs. For quotes or enquiries, please WhatsApp Jon +27722178960 or [email protected]
