Inside Outside by Imperial-Radiance

Alternate title: “Wearing Me Down"You have no fucking idea how long I’ve wanted to make some sort of capsule city. It’s not exactly how I thought it’d come out, but I’m damn proud of it. Gosh, I love me some well-executed, not cliche Giga+ content. I only wish I were better at making it… or anything. 

In regards to the size differential here, I think the layout of the capsule’s accurate, figuring out how to carry a portion of a miniature, manmade planet’s cores, mantle, crust, and outer atmosphere into space (yes, all of them - can you tell?) on-the-go with some science bullshit. As for the actual size, the view of the city itself might be zoomed in here from the glass and the grid. The history of that neighboring, pen-pummeled city was/is left to the wayside for now. The data from exactly how much of it was brutalized by the touch of the writing tip is both unknown and unneeded, but I could see a metropolis grander than the view of this scooped-out Mesa Metro being demolished with a huge margin of flattened earth - the dirt kind, not the planet - surrounding it. Yes, I could see that, or maybe it was just part of it pounded, similar to the aftermath of a ‘small’ nuclear explosion or an asteroid. What say you? Compared to other works from this story Zero to One, found here in the gallery, you may notice some gained tans from both main characters. For Big D (pun not fully intended), he’s more or less sunkissed, but there’s also the lighting. That farmer’s tan, though is totally not just maker’s error… As for the mini miss, I’ll just say there is a myriad of reasons that you probably wouldn’t have guessed - shit’s too real for what should be just a sci-fantasy story - and it’s absolutely intentional. It’s amazing enough that she’s outside for something that’s not a study, though maybe this could be considered one, too. Where in the fuck are they even going, anyway… in both cities? The Pieces to the Picture ~Software: Autodesk Sketchbook ~It’s your boi, Devin~ ~a strong chest… and the background ~glass… was an okay movie, from what I’ve heard ~I’ve got a jar of dirt~ ~in the city~ ~the same city but on the streets ~textures and shadows and sheens, oh my! ~The most important necklace clasp in existence ~do you hear the Inception theme playing, too, or is it just me? ~He’s got the whole (story-focused part of the) world in His hands~ ~a hex… grid ~It’s your gurl, Lauren~ ~real macro, too close for comfort circa July 2019. Merry Chrismahanukwanzakah, and Happy Holidays, from your unknowingly favorite degenerate.   Don’t you just want to swipe the pictures like a gallery? lol To the little freaks of the internet thinking he could put that pendant in a lot of places… you are not wrong.  He wouldn’t with this one, but it’s only one small circumstance to this pseudo-god of a mad scientist. I can post a zoomed-in/full-size pic of it if you want. I need to know this model’s name; oh, my goodness. Four-ish pictures will never be enough.

Japanese artist Aki Inomata 3D prints homes for hermit crabs

These beautiful plastic shells feature miniature versions of cities and structures from around the world including New York, Thailand and Greece. Hermit crabs usually inhabit empty snail shells but have been known to opt for wood or whatever they can scavenge when shells aren't to be found. Inomata decided to play on this activity by printing these forms and leaving them for the crabs to find. The series is rather aptly titled: "Why Not Hand Over a 'Shelter' to Hermit Crabs?".

The work is reminiscent of the art produced when Caddisfly larvae where given gold leaf to make protective cases from, which you can see here at: Laughing Squid
