I presented at the fedi's Summer School / Solstice School in July and it was useful + fun; we also started talking about our favourite miniatures + diorama projects - which led to a call for a future fedi #DioramaCon.

after the presentation went for a walk and lo + behold - in the window of the local vinyl shop was a diorama of the local vinyl shop 😍

(will repost this with photos of said diorama when I empty the camera)
