A Street Corner in Lisbon

[zathros]

Look closely, this is a diorama. With certain camera angles, it looks like a "street corner is Lisbon". So many techniques and models are needed to complete such a scene. The sense of continuity, understanding the area, and the feeling of it being not a model but a slice of life, makes this the new "Model of Merit" by Xavier, a master model maker, who has made so many incredible works, everything he touches could be in this spot. So Kudos to you Xavier, Thank you, for posting this beautiful place. It's peaceful, and broadcasts peace like a radio playing beautiful music.

This is one of the nicest dioramas I have ever seen.

A well-deserved MoM ! Congratulations! The dio is so life-like that you could take it for a picture of the real city. Excellent! Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of art with us!

Even Though I have never been to Lisbon, I have been to Eastern Europe (Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Austria, and Poland). This diorama reminds me of there.

You did a PHENOMENAL job on this diorama! This is museum quality!
I look forward to seeing more of your work!

Usually any reasonably well done build look great if seen at a proper distance.
Not all look equally great if seen much closer.
Very few can sustain a very close look.
This one is absolutely INCREDIBLE even if you look as close as if you were actually walking in it.

Wonderful!!!
Have you seen that air conditioning machine out of the window? It's REAL!
Increbible work, master craftmanship!

I could not let a masterpiece like this go by without the fanfare it deserves. This is way beyond my abilities, I am not ashamed to say.

It really captures the flavour of Lisbon. This street exists for real.
