Houston, We Have A Problem...

June 02, 2015/ Tommy

I really dig this simple little vignette by paddybricksplitter. it's clean, funny and well photographed. It also tells a story, which I think is the real secret formula of small scale dioramas. It's not about how much detail you can pack in, it's how you can evoke emotion or suggest a narrative.
