Awesome Micro Miniatures

[CheckMouse]

Most of you know I am totally besotted with the micro scales of miniatures. I have built a scene in a half walnut shell, and in a watch casing - but these just blow me away. Most of them are in jewelry ring-boxes.  Such beautiful work, such fascinating scenes!  I now have new inspiration - just wish I could make RL go away and leave me alone!

So totally weird.

Kudos to anyone who can build that tiny, I got a brain pain just trying to view them.

I knew you would like them, Blondie!

I'm always fascinated by micro minis. Having done some limited 1:144 work I can really appreciate the precision involved in the micros.

I built my first 1:144 kit recently and loved it! Some of these are beautiful, especially the ones with trees in the "lids" such a nice affect!

Amazing work, but totally weird and some are downright inappropriate.  Guess I just don't appreciate fine art.  :/

Sorry, didn't mean to offend anybody. I'll keep my future micro-mini enthusiasm for the FB group.

Well I liked them . Made me look at my own stash of little boxes with renewed interest, thank you for the inspiration!

CJ, Link us to stuff like that in your gallery (I don't do FB); even if some of the images are weird or disturbing, they are still unique and interesting and stimulate conversation.

I guess I looked at them less for the content, but more how he built them. I liked the way he moved from base to lid all in one scene. It didn't say if the boxes closed, but I'm assuming they did. So that had me studying them to see if there is room for the figures in the base to fit into the scenery at the top; something I always have to allow for in my cutaway boxes. I will definitely be trying this! The model train people would be great for this - a picnic table, a canoe ride - fun!

I'm finding myself looking at small boxes in a whole new way. I've seen many interesting things that have been built with the tiny train people.

Noooooo! I love your micro minis and am happy you shared the link with us. Please don't stop sharing them.

I think they are very beautiful and not offensive at all
