Dragon Models

Dragon Models Limited (Dragon or DML for short) is a Hong-Kong-based manufacturer of plastic model kits founded in 1987.

The high quality products that DML have produced have won numerous awards from magazines and modeling societies throughout the world.

Dragon kits focus on military subjects, primarily 1/35 WW2, but do also produce ships, aircraft and space related models. The 1/35 WW2 vehicles and figures are their most famous products.

Their kits, in general, are aimed at the advanced builder. Many kits include high parts count and photo-etched metal details that make them complex and challenging. The attention to detail also means that there are many thin and fine parts that need particular care during handling.

The reputation of the kits is high, as the research for the attention to detail is comprehensive. They originally aimed to be more detailed than Tamiya and they have achieved that. Often their kits will be more expensive than a similar offering from Tamiya.

The surface details such as weld seams and rivet detail is of a realistic size. This means that the detail can be easily damaged with sanding and construction, but will look most realistic on the finished model.

If you like a challenging or extremely accurate looking model then Dragon Models will be perfect for you.
