2 PDF WOSpecs Diorama Gift Set
We recently put together a rather different diorama for the good folks of 2 PDF. It is a large scene with various components that form a snapshot of the recipient’s work, achievements and contributions. This diorama was quite unlike the usual jungle scenes that we build. Therefore it was pretty challenging to plan and execute […]
Chettiars – The Bankers of Old
The Chettiar Moneylender is one of our newest Singapore Heritage figurines.

Custom Thailand Army Scouts
Recently, a team in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) approached us for a gift to a Thailand Army delegate. They wanted a diorama that symbolised the bilateral exchange between our two militaries, in particular, army scouts doing recon. We, unfortunately, only had figures of the Singapore Army. Hence we had to look to an external […]
