Miniatures made out of Trash

A while back i had the idea to make an artistic frog and a home for him but i quickly abandoned it. Recently i started to make a miniature for a teacher rabbit out of a cardboard box but the idea wasng really working for the box i had. So i decided to revisit the first idea i had.
Its mostly made out of trash, air drying clay, watercolor paper and some cheap opaque watercolor. This is the first time i ever made a miniature (apart from when i was a child ) and i didnt use a scale, because i was to lazy.

I am really happy how it turned out
Any advise would be amazing

That's a lot of work. It must been a blessing killing time in such a playful way. Good on you for finding a way to feel good. Intriguing piece.
 
Love it! It's great to see so much imagination and individuality poured into a 3D artwork of this kind. You've definitely created a place I'd like to visit :)

Here's a link to a guy who shares his methods of prototyping and modeling with cardboard that you might find interesting. I've been meaning to use his techniques to build a sturdy cardboard pinhole camera.
 
Happy creativity here! This piece just overflows with joy. I love the Tiny Art Corner and the van Gogh bed. I'm ready to move in and play.
 
Wow, this is lovely and so creative and charming !
Cheers,
Patricia
 
Thank you all, for your nice and kind comments. I am accutally working on a second miniature right now.
 
The front of the bookstore is finished. Its supposed to like a bookstore mentioned in one of my favorite books (Soft Touch (which is available on Tapas) ). Im almost finished wiht the inside too, just need make a bunch more books . Materials are the same as before, except i used acrylic paint too. No scale used.
Advise would be amazing
