Stunning Muppet Theater Model

Post by Shellyfish » Apr Sat 02, 2011 4:34 pm

An artist named Lance Cardinal built an amazingly detailed Muppet Theater model complete with multiple backdrops and scenes, including the Swedish Chef's kitchen and Pigs in Space. As someone who has a fondness for miniatures and the Muppets, I had to share it.

He has quite a few other noteworthy projects on his site as well - lots of theater set models and Whoville and other scenes. Very cool!

Wow, that is great. My eldest created and built a mock-up for a Disney rollercoaster as part of a school project last year. It took her weeks just to complete it, so I can only imagine the work this guy put in.

I wouldn't have the patience to trust myself. I am an artist by night...but my lack of patience is probably what has kept me from ever making it my day job.

That is awesome. I have seen small doll houses but that is cool.
