AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A unique, hand-crafted diorama inspired by New York City urban architecture, made in 1:12 scale and presented in a shadowbox frame, creating a ready-to-display artwork suitable for wall mounting or shelf display.

The scene depicts a fragment of urban street architecture with distinctive industrial details: a technical metal door, a riveted kick plate, a downspout gutter, a projecting cornice, a brick wall, and the atmosphere of a dark, gritty side alley. The set includes realism-enhancing elements such as trash bags, damp decaying leaves, an old newspaper, a discarded chip bag, and a rat figure. Action figures shown in the photos are not included in the set.

The diorama is entirely handmade, with great attention to proportions, textures, and realism. Many elements are made of real metal, which further enhances the authenticity of the piece. Visible stylized wear, scuffs, and aging effects give the scene a convincing urban character.

This item is perfect as:
a collector’s piece
an interior decoration
A display background for 1:12 scale figures (Marvel Legends, GI Joe Classified, Mezco, Storm Collectibles, SH Figuarts, as well as McFarlane Toys and NECA).
• an exhibition piece for fans of urban / street / NYC aesthetics

One-of-a-kind artwork – the only existing piece, signed by the artist.

The artist is an independent creator working at the intersection of underground comics and physical diorama design. Inspired by dark mood, raw details, and realistic miniature environments, his work blends visual storytelling with handcrafted three-dimensional scenes. Each piece is built entirely by hand as a one-of-a-kind artistic object. The artwork is accompanied by a signed certificate of authenticity.

Height: 27 cm (10.63 in)
Width: 21.9 cm (8.62 in)
