CD City.
As seen in my profile banner.

I was looking for something to do with a broken CD player and thought of making a diorama of sorts.

I imagined opening the player and a tiny city magically pops up.

I couldn't achive the magic or popping, but I did scratchbuild a city at the smallest scale I've worked at.

More angles of the CD City.

Including the service station on the bypass (gotta build bypasses...), and a subway that makes use of the headphone and power ports with track and a train peeking out.

CD City.

As part of the theme of opening a CD player and finding a tiny city, I modelled the water of the sea pouring out of the (now open) front.

I'm sure the boats will be fine...

Flying above the CD-City is an advertising blimp.

Clearly inspired by those seen in Blade Runner.

I tried various ways to attach the blimp, some more/less visible, and a range of sturdiness.
I opted for a sturdy clear plastic rod that is held in place with a magnet. This allows it to be removed for transport and the like.

Have you travelled to the off-world colonies?
