+## Intercepting the Model Type Used to Find Validators
+By default, the component will use the type of the model being validated to determine what validator to resolve from the DI container.  In most scenarios, this will be the model's compile-time type; however, if your model is being proxied (by [Castle Project's `DynamicProxy`](http://www.castleproject.org/projects/dynamicproxy/), say), the component will fail to resolve validators from the DI container or from scanning assemblies because the runtime type differs from the compile-time type used to implement the validator.
+
+You can control this behaviour using the `ModelTypeFunc` parameter.
+```csharp
+// using System;
+// using Castle.DynamicProxy;

+public static class ModelTypeInterceptor
+{
+	public static Type Execute(object model)
+	{
+		if (model is IProxyTargetAccessor proxy)
+			return proxy.DynProxyGetTarget().GetType();
+
+		return model.GetType();
+	}
+}
+```
