Modelmakers are naturally flexibleModelmakers are naturally flexible. They can accommodate direct changes that are needed to be done prior to the delivery and even after the customers already have the items. However, these changes done are dependent on the extent of the changes that must be made. There are things that limit these changes such as the cost and the timescale and there are penalties that must be faced as well. It is important that modelmakers will conform to the needs of the client so that they can make the clients happy and satisfied.

They are highly valuable although it becomes harder to find those that work on a per project basis unless you go to major establishments and centers. If you have what it takes to be a modelmaker, you will be included into the major definition of what ideal is.
