Griffith Observatory – Micro Build

While planning & waiting for part orders on the larger build, I put together a quick micro-build version of Griffith Observatory (minus the landscape & right cafe/deck area). Seemed to turn out pretty well and the frontside-top more closely resembles the real building than the larger model I’m putting together.

I liked the challenge of the micro-scale on this one, that scale seems to suit my preferences the most.

The Church

I didn’t know what I was building when I started, I just started putting a base together and see what came to mind.

As IĀ built the base I kept changing it around as I thought of different things to do until it seemed to be forming a church-like structure.

Back side – there is a side entrance visible here.
