Aerospace Model Making

Curvature Group has been associated with the aerospace industry since 1953. We can cater for one-off interactive demonstration models as well as short-run production (typically from between 25 – 500 units) of liveried desktop models or larger. The aerospace sector not only covers commercial airlines, we are also very much involved with the defence sector of the aerospace industry.

We regularly receive commissions for projects such as scale replica missiles the size of a ball point pen for promotional use through to full size weapons and radar equipment that can be mounted under the wing of a real aircraft for design validation and / or, display at the world’s many Air Shows.

More recently, we have produced all of the models, large and small that have been used for the exciting Virgin Galactic project from initial World Press Launch, through to high end gift and subsequent promotional merchandise. We are now constantly producing miniature replicas right up to the full size mockup as was seen at Farnborough Airshow in 2012.

Scale Models

In addition to prototype models we also have an enviable reputation in the field of scale models for the Marine, Aerospace and Automotive industries.


We have used Curvature Group for boat models through to full size plugs and mould tools since we first embraced the use of fully up to date manufacturing and design development techniques and throughout this time, we have come to believe that they are the best at what they do. Each time they have delivered models/plugs & mould tools to the same exceptional standard and acute level of detail and accuracy that we demand of ourselves. Their experience and understanding of our product means we can hand a project over with confidence, knowing they will translate the information into a true scale model with minimum communications, on time and to budget. Nick and his team are true artisans.
