Rubrik Sotiris Kyriazis, director of Imaginary Reality, with a model of a container ship. The whole world at a scale of 1:100 In his company Imaginary Reality (www.architecturalmodels.gr), our customer of many years, Sotiris Kyriazis from the Greek capital of Athens, now works on his extraordinary models with the aid of three <strong>Step</strong>-Four machines. The wide range of subjects modelled by the specialist reach from country estates to special trucks and industrial plants to enormous container ships. He mainly uses polystyrene sheets of varying thicknesses, which, to a large extent, are processed with 0.6mm milling cutters. MDF is also used for the hull of his ships. This material is particularly suited for the construction of the prototype, because the hull of the ship can subsequently be used as a master form for a form made of epoxy or polyester resin. Why not a laser cutter? Some readers will probably ask themselves why no laser was used for the processing of these models. Mr. Kyriazis is totally convinced that there is nothing better than milling technology for processing polystyrene. In addition to this, the experienced model maker swears by the advantages of speed and low investment costs. The model ship has been built to a scale of 1:100. Thus, the original super-freighter has an incredible length of 230 metres. Mr. Kyriazis’ company will be moving into larger premises sometime during the next few weeks. Considering the size of his models, that’s not at all surprising.
