About ITLA Scale Models
"ITLA" stands for Imagine That Laser Art. In business since 2008, we continue to provide our customer base with the best in unique, precision laser cut wood model kits.
Now we're known as "ITLA Scale Models Inc.", bringing precision laser cut scale model kits to a worldwide customer base, our “3D” laser engraved and cut wood materials represent masonry, steel, and concrete when painted using basic techniques.
“Configurable by Design”... many of our structure kits are engineered to offer you the opportunity to build the model in a variety of “footprints” and varying wall combinations.
Some of our kits can be built in as many as 15 different wall combinations, from background “Flat” to “Shallow Relief” formats, in addition to the Full Walled structure.
Our Design Inspiration
We love that “old downtown city”, “back alley” and gritty architectural look that you can still find across North America today.
The connection to a railway enabled many of these small towns and cities to prosper. Our tag line "Where the City Meets the Railway" represents this theme.
Unique details, quality, precise & repeatable fit, ease of paint and modular assembly is our hallmark.
Above all, we stand behind our product and want you to have an enjoyable build experience. If you break a part through normal handling, we'll replace it for you!
