  • The final design of drawing of the buildings in PDF, JPD or CAD.
  • Rendering for reference (if any)
  • Delivery and installation destinations.

Once we received the above information, we will prepare a scale model diagram (see right side) to offer the quotation within 48 hours.

Step 3. Architectural Model Sample Preparation and Confirmation

RJ Models will produce a portion of the sample during the model production to determine the display effect of the entire model.

Such as structure details, color match, texture, and lighting effect of the model to ensure the sample is consistent with your design philosophy.

Then continue the overall model production.

Step 4. Model production and progress report

When the model starts making, we will provide professional architectural model progress photos at regular intervals for you.

It is good for you to understand the latest situation of the model and the expected completion time, and to make sure the project goes well.

At the same time, depending on your needs, we can arrange customers to make on-site visits in our company.

Therefore, you can see your architectural model with your own eyes and comment it directly.

Step 5. Model Transportation and Installation

After getting your permission, the ship models will be packing and shipping to your address you designated.

RJ Models will confirm with you to the model’s position and direction, and install and test it on the spot to ensure that the model completed under your satisfaction.
