¿Alguno de ustedes sabrá cómo se dice esto en inglés? Había pensado en scale modelling, pero no estoy segura.
Muchas gracias por adelantado

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mockup
In manufacturing and design, a mockup, or mock-up, is a scale or full-size model of a design or device, used for teaching, demonstration, design evaluation, promotion, and other purposes. A mockup is a prototype if it provides at least part of the functionality of a system and enables testing of a design.[1] Mock-ups are used by designers mainly to acquire feedback from users. Mock-ups address the idea captured in a popular engineering one-liner: You can fix it now on the drafting board with an eraser or you can fix it later on the construction site with a sledge hammer.[2]

It's not the same as a scale model, which is much more precise. Notice that the text refers to both.
