Miniature rose phart. natural light. Focus stacked using zerene stacker and pharted with a faded fractalius filter
The second miniature I've ever painted, the first one where I used washes and dry brushing, following the tutorials with the Reaper "Learn to Paint #1 - Armor & Fur" set.
The park of miniature châteaux is located outside of Amboise, so before we press on, here's a few miscellaneous images not linked to any particular château under discussion.
These things really are great. We were all let down by the discovery that the park's miniature golf course did not run through or around the châteaux themselves, and, worse, wasn't open until July. It was a hot day and we'd budgeted more time here than we needed in a non-golf reality. We ended up cutting that time down, but for some people it was still kind of a drag. I can understand that - obviously there's something extremely silly about a lawn full of scale châteaux!
To me, roadside kitsch is always charming, and it turns out that, honestly, these things really do have educational value, giving the chance to look at these things in 3D and in relationship to their sites. In the case of Chambord, at least, it helped me crystallize my burgeoning reading. So I vote for it, and was saddened to see it make it all the way to the third-place tie in the Battle of the Worst Buildings. The mini-golf disappointment lingered long and painfully.
4-H youth in the horse animal science project learn how to take care of, groom, and show horses. The 4-H Miniature Horse Show at the Lancaster County Super Fair includes Showmanship (based on the youth's handling of their horse), Halter (the horse's body structure is judged), In-Hand Obstacle Trail, Miniature Horse Jumping and Pleasure Driving (the horse pulls driver in a cart).
In Nebraska, the 4-H youth development program for ages 5-18 is part of University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension. Learn more about Lancaster County 4-H at lancaster.unl.edu/4h
Miniature wargaming terrain from the Star Wars universe.
The miniatures are from the old Star Wars Miniatures game from Wizards of the Coast. Some terrain scaled down and 3D printed from the 1:12 scale action figure crowd.
Most pieces I drew from assets in the on-line computer game Star Wars the Old Republic and then 3D printed and painted.

my first attempt at miniature imagery. its taken me so long to do this because I can never find a good enough shot with a view looking down, and finally did whilst walking along the pier. :)
This is the second half of the "street" of stores.
Today was the 25th annual miniatures show held by the West LA miniatures club known as "Miniatures West." I usually go; there are pictures in my stream from previous years. None of the displays here were made by me; they were the presentations made my Miniatures West members and their friends.
