ModelShipMaster.com is a U.S. company located in
southern California, about 25 miles south of Los Angeles
International Airport. The
company was founded in 2000.
In May 2009, the accuracy
level of our models caught the
attention of Mr. Ray Ashley--president of the
Maritime
Museum of San Diego--
who commissioned four ships.
Today, our models
have been featured in major museums
such as
the
Smithsonian Museum,
Coast Guard Museum NorthWest,
Mariners' Museum,
Museum of
Science and Industry,
National
Museum of the American Sailor.
Training centers value accuracy the most, and our models
are displayed in the
United States Naval War
College,
U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps,
Naval Postgraduate School.
Not only reputable public
institutions, private shipyards and many
cruise ship operators also contact
us when they have a need.
Our team
loves to learn and learns fast. In 2019, when the owners
of the company decided to expand the submarine line, we
diligently studied the history of submarine
developments. Soon after, we became the only one in the world that
scratch builds correct sub models. There are important
exterior parts/features that submariners know only our
models portray correctly.
ModelShipMaster's ability to make ship
models is far superior than that of any other firms.
Take our
Coast Guard line
as an example. We started the line in 2020 - more than
10 years after a prominent Coast Guard model maker, and
by 2022, all
of our Coast Guard models are much better, and the
Coast Guard Museum Northwest reached out to
commission a model in 2023 and another in 2024. Another
example is the iconic
USS Monitor that we built
in 2020 for Mr.
Dwight S. Hughes-a
Civil War navy historian,
and in 2022 for
National
Museum of the American Sailor.
Being explorers by heart, we have pioneered many
features that give ship models the level of
sophistication hardly existed before. Nowhere else you can see stunning micro woodworking
on wood parts, spectacular details on guns and aircraft
on warships, captivating lighting on yacht models,
advanced remote control functions, and many more.
Without our passion, majestic models of maritime marvels
such as the Wonder
of the Seas and Paul Allen's Octopus superyacht
would have never existed.
Economywise, what separates
ModelShipMaster from the rest of the model ship business is that
we care more about our patrons' prestige than money. As you might
have known, ModelShipMaster is the
only company in the USA who does not mix junk in its
offerings. We sell what
we produce; no
dropshipping, no horrible items in our lineup.
After over 20 years of
gratifying work, many members in our team start thinking
about creating the world's first comprehensive maritime
museum. We have visited many nautical museums and felt
that the ship models in there seemed to be collected
randomly by many successive curators and, as a result,
the museums offer very little educational benefit. Our
envisioned museum will have many spacious
rooms, each features one type of ships and changing
themes (i.e. Maritime Innovations that Changed the
World, Naval Battles that Shape the Future, Historic Submarines, Famous Yachts,
Mega Ships, Most Loved Boats.) In the front stand several massive 15'-20'
models. Outside, we plan to have a pond to reenact
famous battles (the ships are connected to runways on
the bottom of the pond and the whole acts are
computerized.) We hope that with the
creation of this museum, many schools will start to
offer a class about maritime history, authors will
collaborate to write text books, and southern
California will have one more great place for millions of global
tourists. When private benefactors and corporate
sponsors participate, the museum will be able to give
free admissions on certain days of the year. This
endeavor requires high finance and we need assistance,
investment, or partnership. We are sure many cities and
counties will be eager to fund parts of the project.
