C-Customs is a custom model company specialising in 1:400 custom diecast models . The concept is you either send off one of your own models to have the decals changed or the owner will source a model for you and then change the decals on that . The pricing at C-Customs is reasonable and affordable . The quality of the models made is extremely good and surprised me at first . This concept is perfect to get some of those models you just wish you had , but haven ’ t been released yet . Ordering from C-Customs is simple . Just send the owner a message on Instagram (@ c _ customs ) and he ’ ll be happy to hear your requests . There is a waiting list which can take a fair amount of time but remember , these customs take some time to make and Callum is running the company all on his own ! However , the two times I have ordered , I have never waited that long and trust me , it ’ s worth the wait ! The customs themselves are great quality and are completed to a very high standard , I ’ ve never been unhappy with a custom from the company and haven ’ t heard of anyone who has been unhappy . The little touches such as a custom box , invoice , guide on how to handle the model and with some models , a complimentary C-Customs stand .

I was able to ask the owner a few questions about the company .

Q A

Q A

What inspired you to start C-Customs ?
It came about because I signed up to a charity expedition to Malaysia in July 2016 and I had to have a way to fundraise , so I started making custom models and selling them on eBay . It kind of spiralled out of control as you can probably tell !
What ’ s been your favourite custom that you have made so far ?
It ’ s very hard to say and I don ’ t have a favourite as I like many of the ones I have made . My favourite times however are when I get to make models I haven ’ t made before or are from far away destinations !
