    Hi Dagmar, It is always easiest for a casting /finishing  factory
    like ours to receive metal models  that are done exactly as the
    customer would like the design to look. In other words ... as perfect
    as you can make it. If it is not perfect, then it becomes difficullt
    to know what level of perfection you are looking for... We can
    remove slight blemishes in the moldmaking process that may be hard
    for you to repair, such as a pit in the metal. But, in general, the
    better the model, the better the finished product will be. 

    Carving wax is also popular for one offs or for models... to make
    good carved wax models is a developed skill ... and ... naturally,
    more tools makes it a lot easier. In our case, we have 2 full time
    model makers who can make models from a customers drawings or , in
    some cases if you have good computer art, we can make the model on
    one of our cnc machines. If you should need more info, feel free to
    email me privately or call at my shop during the early afternoons.
