Wordless Wednesday: Animal Miniatures
I love the Mini Time Machine Museum of Miniatures. How people have the patience to make tiny things so perfectly is amazing to me. Enjoy!

Images are a tad on the blurry side because you can’t use flash there so my hand held pics in the dark rooms had a bit of a longer exposure than usual. Sorry about that. I might ask them if I can use a tripod next time I visit.

| love the Retro Candy site, especially seeing candy by decades. Did you know Butterfinger has been around since before the 1920s? | I love Stampington magazines. The images in Digital Studio, the latest one I bought, are amazing. The magazines should come with a warning label: Addictive when read |
Comedy Plus hosts Wordless Wednesday, a fun blog hop where the pictures speak for themselves

hello cactus catz its dennis the vizsla dog hay luk at those kyoot littel tiny animals!!! i think they ar eeven smaller then my tiny frend the mowse!!! that definitly luks like a fun playse to vizzit!!! ok bye
It is a fun place to visit. You might have to get a service animal jacket though to get in. They even have some miniatures in the floor and the glass on top so you peer down into the little town. You would just love it!
Monopods come in handy. They aren’t as bulky and you can whack people with it if they hassle you about having a monopod. My Sony Nex 7 setup is geared for low light since I tend to avoid flash on the fly.
well here the light is pretty low and you’re not allowed to use flash so your Sony Nex 7 setup should be perfect. I’d love to see one of your pics taken with the Sony.
I have been building models for quite a few years for electric trains especially. The reward is the look on other people’s faces when they see it.
That’s really cool. Do you make just the trains or like the tracks and little towns too? And the big question is … when you turn them on, do the cats chase them?
Everything these days is boxed up and stored away unfortunately. Buildings and scenery made. Trains and tracks manufactured. Never operated with a cat present ever!
Awww that’s too bad that they are boxed up. sounds like you put a lot of work into them and it would be great to see a pic. (you might run an old railcar on an old track and see what the cats do — with your video camera/phone ready!)
If you search for “Christmas means 2015” on my blog you will see a disastrous attempt for Christmas trains. Not my handmade as too risky but mostly antiques,
found it! https://felinecafe.net/2015/12/20/christmas-means-2015/
the little houses and train is cute. The cats look like they had a great xmas that year too!
I love these miniatures soooo cute heheh!
Have a patiencetastic weekend 🙂
I think they’re cute too. So much work has gone into them.
Hope you’re having a great Feline Friday!
Those really are amazing and we don’t know anyone with the patience to do anything like that!
Neither do I. I wonder if the miniature makers say the same thing about bloggers? that they wouldn’t have the patience to write like us? I think when you love doing something, you just do it and don’t count the time.
I’ve never seen any place like it, I would love to visit.
It’s a magical place. I love the historical miniatures there too. Definitely check it out if you’re ever in Tucson.
What a fun place to explore. I want to go.
Hope you had a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ♥
it was fun. I really enjoy offbeat museums.
Hope you’re having a great Thursday!
You find the most amazing places in the nook and crannies of Tucson!
I think the Miniature Museum is kinda new. They opened their doors September 1, 2009. Too bad it wasn’t around when we were growing up, Dad would have loved it especially as they have a couple of tiny movie sets in there.
