how to make thumbnail images?
I would like to find a book or a CD that shows how to make miniature paintings for dolls houses my daughter also has to miniature scenery from time to time. Thanks Ali
I have several books on miniatures, but none small enough for your needs. I suggest a good graphics program like Photoshop. You can scan photos on a small size and reduce them further. It might also seem texturiser a canvas or even coal and chalk drawings. This would also be a good way to handle the staging. Be a fan of trains using the technique. Its stone walls are very good, because everything he has done is reduce the size will never go out of proportion. Hope this is of some help.

Make Miniature Food
People just love miniatures. They are not only beautiful but also very detailed and interesting as well. Young or old, does not matter. Thumbnail collection and creation is fun and very rewarding for all. Building Your Own thumbnails is something that many collectors like to do. The creation of its own accessories is really impressive and makes everything you have very original. Many people can not assume that you can even Make Your own food you really, miniature can. It's a great way to save money and accumulate a collection. Making miniatures is just as popular as its collection.
With something like Polymer Clay is probably your best bet for the design and configuration of miniature food. Try starting with things like fruit, a watermelon because it tends to be quite simple. Form the clay until it is the right way and you are satisfied with it. Use your fingers to smooth it out until it is perfect. Let the clay dry for a while until it's hard prior to painting. You can paint lines on the watermelon color or lines can be cut with a small blade before the clay dry completely.
Cereal boxes are another matter relatively easy it is simple to do. Use cardboard or thin wood to cut and shape the boxes. It can be a challenge for the design and color name and logo on the box, especially if you re-create the real cereal boxes. Of course, you can always Make Your Own kind of cereal too. You may need tools very small which is in the craft store to carve in the details of your cereal box. Most craft stores in your neighborhood should have what you need. If not, can be ordered online.
You will have to make sure you have all scales measured correctly in order to prevent their food too large. It can be easy to make this mistake. Scales need to be properly measured so that the food is the right size according to the dolls and other miniatures in a Miniature Doll house. The scales were measured as a foot in real life is equal to One Inch in miniature form. Do the math on their wrists in order to determine smaller amount of food in miniature has to be compared with her dolls and other accessories such as furniture.
You can also use the computer and the printer to print small pictures of cakes and other foods. Then you can cut cardboard in the correct way to match the photo and paste en. There are sites that offer miniature food items to print the check out some online craft sites for this type of option. Make Miniature Food is much cheaper to buy real items in miniature. It is a great alternative and also lets you create specific elements that may not be able to find in other places. Be creative and have fun with it.
