'Miniature' model

**glounsbury** · #1 03-30-2011, 12:07 AM

In Tucson there is a museum called the Mini-Time Machine that has a huge collection of 1:12 "doll houses". These are models built by adults and mostly for adults. They do have a room that is fantasy and child orientated but most of the houses in the collection are very intricate and accurately detailed. They recently had a contest to do something with a 1:12 door. Here is my entry (unfinished in the photos), of course the Maquettes are paper models at about 1:144 scale or 1:12 in the diorama.

Hi Glounsbury:
I like your vision, the image inside the image, inside...
It makes us wonder about Time and Dimension.

Carlos,

Thanks for the comments, and yes it just flowed out of my head with visions of of some prince building models in the castle, etc.

OhioMike,

That castle is an old Schreiber model of Lichtenstein, Chris at Marcle Models still has them in his catalogue:
