Just discovered a website about making buildings,walls, structures and cobbled roads out of foamcore. The guy's attention to detail is simply incredible.

Take a look:

When I first saw the photos at the top of the page I thought they were "real" buildings. A real craftsman at work.

I dread to think how long it takes to do a building one brick at a time. The results are stunning though.

That's all very well for 1/48 scale. I want to see him do it in 1/700! Grin

reminds me of the work that John Allen did on his model railroad - The Gorre and Daphetid. John filled his whole basement with his model railroad. There are other model railroaders who go into that amount of detail too.
