    That is amazing.

    Of course my first thought was to have a miniature tabletop battle in there

    I've seen this before, it's an amazing model he's built. It could be argued that he's building a 3D map so imo it is a great link for the sight

    And I thought I had a lot free time on my hands, yowza. Reminds me of a guy who owns a rival stained glass shop in town who built a mini Noah's ark about 20 years ago and rode it down the Missouri river.

    Impressive to be sure. But he says that each of the 4000 figures takes him 3 hours to make, and to be honest, they don't exactly look like they should be taking 3 hours to do. The temple itself is tremendous, though.

    I can't say I'm impressed by the figures close-up but that thing is pretty amazing taken as a whole...should probably be in a museum somewhere. [edit]Somebody rep that guy [/edit]

    Sure, I bet it started with:

    "But where will I put my little wiseman ......"


    Kidding aside, its pretty impressive. Better hobby than drinking.
