Astonishingly Detailed Carved Model of Midtown Manhattan by Michael Chesko

Artist Michael Chesko has been lovingly carving a true-to-form model of Midtown Manhattan:

This scale miniature of Midtown took 2000 hours to complete. As reference, he used blueprints, old photographs, digital reproductions,
and satellite images. On a good day, he'd work his way through four city blocks. The entire model is 36" x 30"... a good deal smaller than most office desks. At the 1:3200 scale, the Empire State Building Chesko's favorite skyscraper) roughly reaches the dizzying height of a Campbell's Soup can.
