the basic idea: the mini effect shall chance a regular landscape or urban photo into a miniature world impression by adding a blur effect and other detailed adjustments.
after showing you a lot of miniature fakes i made, here i want to present a before-after comparison. so i hope you can see that the manipulation is very intensive!
i want to underline with my manipulation that the lightning effects and color-effects mustn't be forgotten. they are very important to opitmize the impression of the mini-view :)
thanks for watching! i love fake minis, so spread the idea!
Continuing our miniature Oribana project... and here is another artwork for the miniature version of our Oribana composition called SOLO.
The starring vase is Yuri's design called Solo, hence the name of the composition. The flower design is my Solo-Lily, a special kind of an imaginary bloom :-)
The vase is just 4 cm high, 1-3/4 inches, and the whole arrangement is 4 inches high (10 cm).
Used wonderful hand-made Japanese paper Moriki Kozo for the flowers, classic origami paper for the greens and some silvery designers paper for the vase.
Note for origami enthusiasts: The step-by-step diagrams on how to fold the composition are published in our ORIBANA BEAUTY

I got some new vintage dollhouse furniture, so I played around with photos :)
food handmade by me out of polymer clay.
1:12 dollhouse scale
The model is worth the price of admission unfortunately the rest of the “museum” is a disorganized mess. It’s a shame there is a lot of potential there.
The commentary from a “guide” who hated the Kennedy family, having a particular dislike for Jackie, and adored the Trumps did not in any way make the visit more enjoyable.
“The House of Presidents proved successful and remained in operation under the original concept until the 1990s, when John and Jan Zweifel purchased it. John Zweifel had been creating miniatures of historic sites since childhood; after his marriage to Jan in 1959, the couple built a business that crafted Christmas displays for major department stores in Chicago and other cities, as well as exhibits for various clients. They moved to Central Florida in the 1970s. As the new owners of the House of Presidents, the Zweifels added a massive scale model of the White House that became the museum’s new centerpiece. They also gave the attraction a new name – the Presidents Hall of Fame – to mark their expanded concept.”
This is a miniature building made to 1:20 precision! It was taken at Abingdon Miniature Village - Mandurah, Western Australia. There are over 35 individual buildings from all over the UK depicting the different architectural styles from 12th century onwards. Well known buildings such as Anne Hathaway’s Cottage, Red Lion Pub, and the traditional Village Green are all featured.
The buildings and all of their components are hand crafted on site, some of the larger and more intricate buildings taking over 600 hours to complete. A miniature steam train winds its way around the ornamental lake and is activated by an electronic eye on the bridge. Amongst the model settings are dozens of miniature figures. Some are playing cricket on the Village Green, enjoying a pint at the Red Lion, attending the wedding ceremony at St Mary’s Church and many others. The figures are all hand made and painted, requiring repainting every 6 – 12 months. New figures are continually added to make the settings more life like and add a touch of humour.
The Re-ment Addicts Group did a Color Theme Challenge quite some time ago, but I didn't have time to do it. I was inspired by all of the great photos they did, so now that I have a lot of time on my hands, I decided it would be fun to do. I am going to do the whole rainbow, and probably post way more photos than I should!
