Manhattan in Miniature



Randy Hage is a Los Angeles-based artist on a mission to preserve the crumbling storefronts of Manhattan--one 1/12-scale miniature at a time. The project started when Hage noticed the generic and mass-produced logos of chain stores and restaurants shoving the small, worn shopfronts right out of the city. My goal is to document and bring greater attention to those disappearing storefronts,” he said. There are more examples of Hage's awesome miniatures in the capsule he curated for How to Be a Retronaut. http://www.howtobearetronaut.com/2011/07/manhattan-in-miniature/

You can achieve the same the effect using a plastic bowl. This way you don't have to worry about a latex reaction or the ickiness of using a balloon. Just pour the chocolate in the bowl, tilt and cover the sides, then turn over and remove any excess.
