Among the more delightful members of the set of all possible World’s X-est Ys, IMHO, is this 3 x 2.4 x 1.4 cm freshwater fishtank from Russian miniaturist Anatoly Konenko. It’s stocked with three tiny zebrafish and outfitted with matching tiny net and bubbler. There’s an English-language piece at The Daily Mail. [Thanks, Alan Dove!]
Beautiful customization of kidrobot’s mini MUNNY toy by Raul Villanueva. Many more views in his Flickr set. [via toycutter]
When I was a kid, I had a copy of dog-eared copy of Shep Paine’s How to Build Dioramas that I carried almost everywhere and spent countless blissful hours poring over and dreaming about.

Great tutorial by Ron of From the Warp. Almost great enough to start me down the WH40K rabbit-hole again. Must…resist… [via toycutter]
Woohoo! I’ve been looking forward to this one for a long time. I have painted a few minis in my time, but my eyes are almost always bigger than my stomach when it comes to buying and planning elaborate armies. Thankfully, there’s plenty of eye-candy out and about the web, and in our own archives, to satisfy my long-standing dreams vicariously. Here’s a list of top content that can get you started on your own mad schemes. Happy Friday!
The listing also claims that “the tallest piece measures 3″,” which, unless an oversize penny is actually part of the set, seems like a slight exaggeration. Majorl awesomesauce, anyway. ]via Neatorama]
