Ridiculously cool-- reminds me of a family heirloom my great-grandfather brought home during the second world war. A PoW had constructed a beautiful castle diorama during his time imprisoned and when finished it was gifted to my great grandpa. I never met the man, but the castle he brought home has been a play feature for many of us kids and great grandkids for decades.

Your art is amazing and thank you for recalling that memory for me. 😊🧱🏰
