The John Prothero-Thomas Collection

Mr John Prothero-Thomas is a frequent exhibitor and Gold medal winner at the UK Model Engineering exhibition.

These models have been seen and featured in the venerable Conways publication 'Modelshipwright' as well as 'Model Boats' and 'Marine Modelling' magazines. Sadly there have been few opportunities to see images of these superb models on-line.

This is no longer the case!!!

Mr Prothero-Thomas has permitted a selection of images to be posted here at Modelwarships for your enjoyment. The ships show the extremely wide spectrum of ships that he has built; ranging from ancient civilizations to modern naval ships! Currently circumstances have prevented him from doing any major photo sessions; however he hopes top redress this later in the year. We can look forward to seeing some real treats and perhaps learn some of the secrets of his building methodology. These models are ENTIRELY scratchbuilt, eschewing such modern conveniences as PE and ready made figures!
