Scale modelling begins with a kit. What becomes of it lies in the hands of the modeller.
InsightScale focuses on what defines high-end scale modelling: design, mechanics, materials, manufacturing, technology and the details that turn a good model into an extraordinary project.
We take a closer look. At new developments and proven technology. At kits, components and tools. At conversions, restorations and our own projects. And at the vehicles and machinery behind the models – their technology, their history and what defines their character.
It is not about presenting as many new releases as possible. It is about truly understanding things, sharing experiences and finding out what works – and what doesn’t.
InsightScale is scale modelling from a practical perspective. For everyone who builds, experiments, improves and is not satisfied with the standard.

Long awaited – here is the continuation of our build report for the Aeronaut Comtesse! Now that the hull has been completed, we are taking you through the next construction phases. In this part, we report on the further work steps, the materials
We also got carried away and built a Ford F-150 based on the TRX-4. Now, some might say you can just buy that… True, but we wanted something different. The Ford F-150 from Traxxas is a so-called High-Trail model with a long wheelbase
A three-cylinder radial engine for the highest demands Despite the rapid development of electric motors, which are increasingly becoming powerful counterparts, internal combustion engines that closely mimic the sound of their full-scale inspirations continue to hold an overwhelming fascination for model enthusiasts. This
Which techniques and products can be used to achieve a perfect result in model building? We at ScaleMonkey constantly find that more and more questions are arising here. The global market and new media such as social networks, forums, and model-building events introduce
For a long time, we’d been toying with the idea of building a fine timber boat. Now, while on holiday, my wife took a liking to an Italian sports boat. As the Pedrazzini Vivale Veloce in its original form is a little beyond
Anyone who enjoys spending many hours on model building will quickly realise the significant importance that high-quality tools can hold. For beginners and minor repairs, inexpensive or aged tools may suffice, but those who truly love their hobby will sooner or later come
At InsightScale, we don’t test and drive from a distance. We build, wrench, drive and test what works in practice – from current developments to proven classics.
We share experiences that you can’t get from data sheets, show technical solutions and take a close look at products, kits and components. It’s not about the next quick review, but about what really counts for sophisticated scale modelling: function, quality, design and the experience on the workbench and on the track.
InsightScale is made for modellers who get their hands dirty, question things and always want to take their model that little bit further.
