Thousands of hours of model building
As exhibition creatorRyan McNaught explains:
Some of these models are the most complex and difficult we’ve made to date, so it’s fantastic to be able to present them. We’ve created and used new techniques and invested thousands of hours in the construction of these models, of which I’m incredibly proud.
For the record, the exhibition required 11,000 hours to build the models, plus another 2,000 hours for design and production, for a total of 13,000 hours of construction.
