This is Himeji Castle in Japan:
It’s a world heritage site, considered the best example of a feudal-era Japanese castle still standing.
Here it is in metal:
This was the largest and most difficult metal miniature model I’ve assembled yet. Taking about 6 hours in total, this was an exercise in patience even with the correct tools. Don’t even think about making this without fine needle nose pliers! It also suffers from the common problem of less-than-stellar instructions.
Sadly, as with most Japanese structures, Himeji is vulnerable to the occasional attack from an oversized monster…
The shot with Yossie is great!
It is a great shot of Yossie, but I hope your construction was not damaged by him, as it looks very good.
