Building one of our models is a rewarding experience, and we understand that sometimes you may need a little extra help along the way. Whether you’re looking for practical build tips, ideas from other builders, or help with a specific assembly stage, there are several support options available.
Tips and Ideas from Fellow Builders
Many of the best building tips come from other collectors who are building the same models. These include:
Assembly tips and step-by-step advice
Solutions to common build challenges
Ideas for improvements, modifications, and finishing touches
Advice on tools, paints, and display options
Learning from other builders can make the process easier and more enjoyable.
Community-Run Building Forum
We’re pleased to recommend a long-running, community-managed building forum that is still very active and widely used by model builders.
Although the forum operates under a former brand name, it continues to support our collections and is maintained by experienced customers who generously share their knowledge.
Forum name: DeAgostini Model Building Forum
Website: https://forum.deagostini.co.uk
Supported Languages
The forum includes dedicated sections and support in multiple languages, including:
English
German
Italian
This makes it a valuable resource for builders across different regions.
Important to Know
The forum is run and moderated by customers, not by our Customer Support team.
Participation is optional, but many builders find it extremely helpful.
You may need to create a free account to post questions or view certain content.
