I ask you this, the Trojan Horse, was it real? It’s been debated for centuries, with many theories and explanations, but the truth is nobody knows for sure. It is a wonderful story though, which is why I suppose we still tell it, and things like this outstanding MOC by builder Martin Harris continue to be made. I personally like to believe it really happened, and it was a stroke of military genius that was surprisingly effective.
I love a good old theater, one that was built with the full theatrical experience in mind, when craftsmanship mattered. I love it even more when modern day people acknowledge the importance of an old theater and take steps to preserve it. This is the State Theater in Hong Kong, built by Alanboar and his friend Mythbot. The model was built as part of the conservation efforts to save the classic theater. You can view many more pictures, including the fully decked out interior and read more about the project at Alanboar's website.
