Incredible! I always admire Lego buildings in (near) mini-fig scale that capture all the details of the Real Thing.

It is better than MiniLand, since I can almost imagine getting enough of the right bricks to build one - and have it still fit in my house, and it also takes more creativitiy to capture the essence of a building at your model scale. The domed roofs and architectural details really stand out.

Do you have any fears about the heat from the light bulb hurting the model? (warping, color fade, etc.) I’ve thought about lighting some of my models up - but I didn’t want to risk adverse effects from the bulb heat.

This goes on my list of “Most Beautiful Lego Buildings Modeled from the Real World”

Keep on inspiring us with your excellent models!
