Many thanks for your help with the Santa Maria Model.
We successfully completed filming on Saturday, with the ship model being
one of the last things that was shot on. It looked very good on camera, I worked
with a local model maker and painter to give the ship a patina of having been
used and at sea of many years.
All worked well.
The ship is now being sent to the Advertising Agency in New York, so that
it can be made available to the visual effects company if they need it during
the Post Production process!
Some Air miles It will have collected over the past few weeks.
Many thanks to your team,
Best wishes,
Kevin Philips Buyer of Santa Maria 3 mts model for filming (UK July 2011)
Thank
you very much for the pictures - wow! It's very very beautiful - I can't wait to
see it in our pool in the theatre - it really looks
amazing!
In the ongoing craziness of approaching the opening of our
show, I did not get around to send you a quick confirmation and a thank you. The
Chinese Junk works actually very well and is indeed very
beautiful.
It has now been tested to be used in the opening scene and it
looks very pretty in the theatre.
Thank you very much for the great work.
Regards, Lina Baden from Franco Entertainment Group, Dragone Macau Limited, Buyer of Chinese Junk Model (China Sept 2010)
We
are doing ok, we already won the first regata (Giraglia Rolex Cup).
The model
was delivered in time, it looks great and we are already considering to make
some more.
We have received the 150 models scale 1:400 and we are very happy with the result. I am surprised with the amount of detail they could put into the model.
Also the give away box meets our expectations.
Thanks a lot.
Kind regards, Richard L.Krabbendam, Heavy Lift Specialist
Thanks for the Ship - we've just unpacked it and it looks great - congratulations to your team.
Lynn Thomson Project Manager MDM Props Limited ,Buyer HMS Victory Model Ship (UK May 09).
Rashid,
Thanks for the opportunity to work with you and Premier Ship Models on Tidewater's model projects! With one model project complete and another to be delivered in approximately 2 months, I can confidently say that Tidewater has been very satisfied with the Premier products As with many projects, our time lines have been shortened yet Premier has maintained their
quality throughout! I would say the largest challenges in the Chief project were the new customs agent who delayed the Chief model delivery and the carrier who appeared to have dropped a pallet of models causing damage to some of the models.
Throughout the process though Premier has been responsive to Tidewater's needs, engaged in continual communication throughout the model build process and quickly delivered replacements for damaged models! All in all, we were very satisfied!
Our latest project with Premier is another tugboat model which is scheduled to be given as a gift to our employees (first model went to employees and customers). Tidewater delayed the project for a number of months and once again Premier has come through with a time line which meets our needs. I look forward to the delivery of the Rebel and hope our paths cross once again! Please feel free to share this reference as needed..thanks again for your efforts!
Best Regards, Chris Kastella Manager Purchasing and
Administration Tidewater
Dear Rehaz / Rashid
Many thanks

but overall very good.

This letter is to serve as notice of my Company's appreciation of the work
carried out by Premier Ship Models Ltd regarding the design, construction and
delivery of five model ships for a project Rich Creation International Ltd has
to fit out the currently 'in-progress' installation of 'Hong Kong's first full Maritime Museum'.
We first
commissioned Premier Ship Models in early 2004 for a very urgent delivery on
custom making ship models of the Batavia and San Felipe Galleons. This then increased
to additional orders for a further two model historical model ships of the Borobodur and Perahu vessels and lastly, late in 2004, a Singalese model sailing boat.
The entire
project continued to undergo many design changes and even resulted in the change
of size/scale of the model ship Batavia. All accommodated without problem by
PSM. They worked very professionally and did significant research on the later
commissioned model ships as our client had little information on these
historical ships.
Constant
delays and our clients change of mind on needs, finishing, ageing of the model
ships etc added complexities to already difficult tasks, but in the end we
received on time very excellent wooden ship models, highly detailed and fine
finishing. The shipping and packing was excellent, and all five ship models
received after a near 3 week journey by sea were without damage.
We found
Rashid and his staffs' service to be very helpful, timely and professional in
every respect. We will and hope to use them again on other projects and further
commissions for this Museum as it expands and creates new displays. The general
quality, service and reliability has proved its worth in using them over less
expensive options, but in saying that we still find them to be highly
competitive and value for money. We would recommend them to any other
prospective client for the provision of high quality maritime ship models.
Best
Regards,Clive Miners, Director.

Re:
Supply of five historical ship models for Hong Kong's Maritime Museum
Premier Ship Models won the contract to research and build to scale a
collection of highly detailed world class transportation modelboats that would
enhance the atmosphere and convey the storyline at the 'Madeira Story Centre' in Funchal
Portugal.
The 'HMS Endeavour', in particular is
an outstanding well crafted display historical wooden ship model, which is
proving to be of great interest to the visitors to the Island.

SHARPE DESIGN LIMITED, UNITED KINGDOM,July 2005
When confronted with two projects for the BBC 'Ancestors' both requiring
detailed model ships, and both with a tight budget and limited timescale, I was
initially at a loss. Fortunately a quick search on the web introduced the BBC
to Premier Ship Models.
Having met
with Rashid to discuss my requirements, objectives and timescales, I was
sincerely astonished with both his enthusiasm and the detailed quality of his
company's ship models.
Despite an
almost impossible schedule, his extraordinary team of craftsfolk managed to
deliver '2 x 8 feet' ship models of the HMS Beagle and HMS Bellona -on time and more
importantly on budget!!
I greatly
look forward to working with the team of true professionals on another project
very shortly.
The ship
models are exceptional, everyone just loves them, floating in the air. Merima
(Finnish company) Marine Interior Solutions commissioned twenty ship models at
1.5 metres long each, to be hung from the ceiling of a new Cruise Liner

Norrie, Buyer of Archiever Model (UK May 2012).
As to your company, we did business together some while ago when I
purchased from you an excellent model of HMS Victory - with which I remain
delighted. I was most impressed, if I may say so, with the efficient manner in
which you conducted that transaction.
Your recent
e-mail to me triggered the order for the Chinese Junk! I suspect that you will
receive many orders for the Junk in future assuming that my friends and
colleagues admire it as much as they admire the Victory!
With warm regards, Graham Harris Senior Counsel, Liberty Chambers Buyer of Chinese Junk Model (UK May 2012)
Hi Rashid
Just a quick note to let you know that the model ship I

would be and the ship is now in majestic full sail in our conservatory and
looking magnificent. My wife loves her classic 1930s yacht and I am extremely
grateful for your help in selecting such a wonderful birthday
present.
You should be commended on the quality of your customer
service, packaging and delivery - I would heartily recommend your company to
anyone wishing to buy a spectacular model ship online. Well done to all involved
in helping make my wife's birthday present such a success.
WOW...... It looks absolutely fantastic. You are very clever and
extremely talented. Have a great weekend.

Model
received safely today as you said and the it looks fantastic
Just wanted to say, I am thrilled with the model
ship which I received a couple of days ago, I was slightly concerned I would not
be able to assemble it but even for one who knows nothing about boats I found
with the help of the diagram and instructions it was quite a quick easy job and
it looks stunning and my Husband will be thrilled as am I.
I just wanted to thank you again for the excellent work you have done on restoring the Phantom. I will be giving the boat back to my father in law later today and can't wait to see his face.
It was a pleasure meeting you and thank you for doing such a magnificent job. Please also pass my thanks on to the Premier team.
Firstly, I would like to thank you for the work you have done... the Phantom looks amazing and I'm sure my father-in-law will be delighted when I present it to him.
Thanks for you patience.
Best wishes Mark Smith client for the restoration of the Phantom Model (UK Oct 2011)
have well come at home and Trincomalee is already in the show case.
Now the model is so nice and valuable like on homepage from Premier Ship Models. .....
Indeed, the models must be also at least twice as expensive, maybe in a Super-Platinum area.
I am contented, in any case, and take a lot of pleasure with my model."
"Hi
guys! Just wanted to drop you a line, telling you how happy I am with the
process of building my custom model! So far you done a great job and the model
gets better with each stage! All the best to you Nawshad, Bunty and the rest of

Hi again –
the case has just arrived. As I don’t have time to put it together today I’ve
only unpacked it to make sure there is no damage and it all looks in order. It
will look great when I’ve put it together.
"...Oh I am happy that the best website for quality ship models belong to you! Premier Ship Models is really the best I can choose from! Congratulation!"

Dear Rehana.
I
received the model of the 'Endeavour' yesterday. It is now proudly
standing in my front window - it looks marvellous! Thank-you for a fine
piece of workmanship.Dear Friends.
I just wanted to
drop you a note to say thank you. My father took delivery of HMS Surprise
yesterday and the look of wonder on his face was worth every penny.
It was made
so much better by having many of his family around to witness his reaction - and
I am grateful for you in complying with my rather tight
deadline.
Delighted to say that HMS Endeavour arrived safely this morning. It was extremely well packed and suffered no damage whatever on it's long journey.
I already have some model ships but this one will be the star of my collection, the detail is superb and I am extremely pleased wit it. Thank you for all your help and patience.
May I thank you all for the custom-build project of the fishing boat
'ORCA', as seen in the movie JAWS that I commisioned
with you in early December of last year.
The boat has arrived securely without
any damage, and I am very impressed with the amount of craftsmanship. The
interior of the cabin detailing is incredible, along with the intricate
sculpting of the 'Fighting Chair' at the stern of the boat.
May I please ask that you thank all of your team involved in this project
who were throughout, professional, helpful and very patient with my constant
requests of changes to be made during the construction process.
The 'ORCA' replica has now taken pride of place in my
home along with numerous other film-related memorabilia. With a collection of
original movie props from movies such as JAWS, TERMINATOR
2 & DIE HARD to name just a few, I am pleased to tell you that
I personally think that this boat is going to command the most attention!
Many thanks again.
Russell Buckley Buyer of Orca Model (Uk July 2011)
Hi Rehana,
Thank you very much for
sending the HMS Bounty Kit, which I received.
My husband was so pleased to
receive it, he now has something to occupy his time in the Care
Home.
I want to thank-you for coming out to my house to repair my
model on Saturday. It has been a long journey, but my boat is finally 'ship
shape' and I am happy with the final outcome.
Thanks and regards Simon Webster for repair of Riva Aquarama (UK June 2011)
Dear
Bunty
The ORCA looks brilliant!
It's surprising how the little touches once added bring the boat to
life.I really cannot wait to see the
next series of photographs as I am really surprised with how quick the finer
details are coming along. P
lease thank your team for
me as they are doing a wonderful job.
Thanks.
Russell Buyer of Orca Model (May 2011)

really is a thing of beauty. I think you can look forward to another order in
the near future.

Thanks for sending the 1930's Yacht so promptly. I was initially apprehensive about the rigging but it could not have been more straightforward. The boat looks well and I would not hesitate in recommending you based on the service I received.
I received my model of the " Traditional Yacht " today and began to assemble it straight away. What a magnificent example of a yacht in full sail. Thank you for your no-hassle service and prompt delivery.
