When it comes to art, bigger does not necessarily mean better. Here to prove this statement is 51-year-old Malaysian artist Eddie Putera, who creates stunning miniature dioramas. Putera combines his talents of miniature modeling and photography to create scenes so detailed that it's hard to believe they are all hand-made versions of objects, as opposed to real life photography. He doesn't take too long to complete his art either. Some scenes take just as little as a week to complete.
Eddie built his first diorama about three years ago after he realized that the subjects of his works need a physical background to fully explore their history and context. He has created some of his miniatures completely from memory, reliving moments from Putera's past. It's especially difficult as some of the scenes no longer exist in the real world.
As you can see in his work below, he pays attention to detail, making his dioramas look extremely realistic. It's no wonder that his painstaking work attracted people's attention. Without a doubt, his work is truly impressive! Take a look below:
