Preston Woodyard in N-scale

  • The Preston Woodyard model kit is inspired by the classic charm of a corrugated Dutch barn, complete with a wood burner chimney and an external staircase that leads up to the upper-level yard office. This model brings a distinctive character with double doors at the front and a variety of unique window frames. To complete the authentic look, the kit also includes the iconic 'woodyard' signage.

Make your own Rye Red Roof Hut

  • For anyone who has walked along the Rye Harbour Nature Reserve, this iconic little red roof hut perched on the shingle, gazing out towards the sea and Camber Sands, will be instantly familiar. This model kit captures that coastal charm perfectly, bringing a piece of the reserve into your collection. The kit includes a wooden base for display and a little bag of scenics (sand and lichen) to help you add realistic detailing.

A miniature Margate Lido

  • This miniature model kit celebrates the iconic Margate Lido sign, a true symbol of the seaside town’s rich history. Known for its bold design and vibrant colours, the Margate Lido sign has been a beloved landmark on the coastline for decades, evoking memories of summers by the sea. Now, you can recreate this classic piece of seaside nostalgia and display it proudly on your mantelpiece or bookshelf.

Creating miniature models enables us to escape into a different world. Everyone connects to models, they evoke memories and capture a place in time.

Recent projects

  • The MetMo Shed

    Postcard Models was commissioned to create a unique promotional model of the ‘Metmo Shed’, a miniature kit designed to delight customers and promote the use of MetMo’s unique ‘multi drive’ tool.

    Metmo, known for engineering beautifully designed mechanical objects, blends precision with nostalgia, creating products that are as functional as they are fascinating. For this project, we adapted one of our original models, refining the brick card and incorporating Metmo’s signature branding across the lasercut kit, packaging, and instructions.
