Yesterday we pointed out that modelmaking is dying as a profession, but there are still people doing it for love, if not money. Top photo, Frenchman Gerard Brion has spent an astonishing fifteen years recreating a miniature Paris; bottom photo, an insanely detailed model of Moscow by the Breadboard Workshop. The Moscow model dates back to 1986 and is still being updated as the city changes.
While we could only find the one photo for the Parisian miniature, be sure to click here to see the rest of the Moscow model.
