A few months ago I stumbled across an Instagram account called Revival of the Fittest and I was hooked.
It's like a TV show that follows a small record store in NYC and the people that hang out in it. It was actually the picture of the shop at the start of each video that inspired me to start making these model shop fronts!

The tiny records are loose in the crates as shown in the video with my rather shaky hand...

Repurposed carriage clock. £40

I got this vintage bakelite carriage clock and disemboweled it ( took the clock bits out) then I rebuilt the back ground from air dry clay, painted it gold and added things like a peacock feather and preserved moss and leaves. Then I added an, ethically sourced deer (? Or sheep?) vertebrae that I had cleaned and painted with gold highlights.

Clear plastic front cover is a little scratched but is also removable. I have included pictures of it with and without the cover.

TW: infant mortality, bones.

Something a bit different as this building doesn't actually exist irl! - I was inspired by a beautiful short story by Blindboy Boatclub called the Poitín Maker. I've included some excerpts from the story on the images to explain some of the little details I've included in the model. The story is included in his book "Topographia Hibernica", which I highly recommend, and he reads it aloud on an episode of his podcast called "The Poitín Maker".

This is my first attempt at adding lights to a model too and I think it's worked out well! They flicker to give the impression of an open fire or candles in the cottage.

I feel like it's not fully finished. Every time I look at it or reread the story I find more elements I'd like to add. I also realised as I was making this post that I have the copper worm the wrong way round so will have to alter that at some point... 🙈

Thanks for looking and following! Keep checking back for updates and new stuff.

Dog bless!

Hyde Park Book Club.
Another fantastic small venue. Made even smaller...

I've realised it's hard to see how small my miniature buildings are so I've included some photos of my latest one outside the actual building. I'm going to make a separate post soon about the scale I work in for these with more comparison photos. So keep ya eyes peeled!

Music is by the fantastic Junior Brother who I saw perform here last year.

Part 4 of my series of miniature versions of iconic buildings.
I can't think of a more iconic shop than this one from my favourite movie universe!

Snoochie boochies!

This is my favourite (and probably the best) thing I've made so far. My tiny 3d picture of one of my favourite places!
The incredible 1in12 club in Bradford.

I've had so many amazing times, and met so many amazing people here. And, hopefully will continue to do so for many more years!!

Another one of my iconic buildings 3d pictures.
CBGBs.
I still feel the doors and windows are a little messy but I'm particularly pleased with how the canopy and the fire hydrant turned out!

The past few months I've been making tiny 3d pictures of iconic buildings and where could be more iconic than the legendary Brudenell Social Club?!
This is the first one I made and there are a few details, like the doors and windows, that I think are a wee bit messy. - I definitely think I've improved my techniques with each one I've made since.
Keep checking in to see more and let me know what you think of them and where else you think I should make!

Been quiet on here for a while again- working on some really different stuff that I'm super excited to share when I have more completed.

In the meantime I have been upcycling these picture frames and mirrors. I have them up for sale on my vinted..

The pot measures:
28.5cm/11.5inch high (Inc handle)
21cm/8.5inch across
5cm/2inch deep.

£15 - drop me a message if you're interested!
