The Magic Trade Shop - Final Result

I started working on this miniature model commission back in Dec of last year (2010) whilst working full time in visual effects (doing 3D conversion) at 'Illuminate Hollywood'. It gained interest from a trade magazine editor who asked for an exclusive on this project for the Nov issue of her magazine. (See previous post about this here)... but now that this mag has wrapped yesterday's fish and chips I can share this with you... 

It's the smallest model I've worked on. Most are 1/6 scale (6 times smaller than real life). You'll be familiar with model sets of this size if you've seen 'The Nightmare Before Christmas', 'Wallace & Gromit', 'Coraline' etc. A lot of the models I've worked on have been smaller, at 1/12 scale (12 times smaller than real life), but this project was actually 1/24 scale. Pretty teeny.
