About Us…

Gunthwaite Miniatures was created to produce 1/72nd scale military miniatures for collectors, diorama builders and modellers generally. 

The original intention was that we should attempt to fill a gap in the market by producing 1/72nd scale figures of naval personnel to accompany Fleet Air Arm aircraft models.  More by accident than design, the emphasis of our first releases was British and Commonwealth Sailors generally.  Planned future releases include aircrew and groundcrew (Fleet Air Arm and Royal Air Force) and a further expansion of our range of sailors.

We are in a literal sense a cottage business.  Our main interest arises from modelling as opposed to producing, marketing or selling.  Consequently, we do not sell direct.  However, Gunthwaite Miniatures are available from Halifax Modellers World (www.halifaxmodellersworld.co.uk) (telephone 01422 349157) and ABC Models, Crewe (www.abcmodelsport.co.uk) (telephone 01270 505048) (see our Order page (Order) for more details).  The nature of our business is that the production of figures is likely to be intermittent and therefore from time to time specific figures may be out of stock pending the production of new castings.  We apologise now for any inconvenience or frustration this may cause.

 Work is in hand to expand the range of figures and additions to the Gunthwaite range will be released in due course, probably spring 2010.
