So I was stumbling through the internet one day, which is not an unusual occurrence for me seeing as my attention span is equal to that of a squirrel who just ate a sugar cube, and I ran into a flickr page titled “365 days of stormtroopers”. All star wars geekyness aside, this was a pretty awesome stumble. It shows toy stormtroopers acting out scenes of daily life but not in a miniature setting but in our setting and our scale. This brings up a great scenario. Imagine that the things we make, whether they are mockettes or our fully resolved pieces, can experience the world as we do but in our scale. Recently the topic of scale has entered conversations and discussions and I am torn between making them bigger or making the small things that I do incredibly detailed, borderline hyper realistic. At the moment I am leaning towards small and intricate but there still needs to be more play and more investigation into both ends of the spectrum in order to achieve a happy medium. Hopefully I find a happy medium. This is just a little comic relief that helps me look at things from a different perspective.
