Creativity can be found in the most unexpected of places. The motivation to build something different often arises from an idea one loves dearly. One particular Game of Thrones fan created one of the most amazing dioramas of a medieval mini-alley in their bookshelf. And it is delightful to watch! Check it out here!
The video description shows a bookshelf packed with the five A Song of Ice and Fire books yet released. In between A Storm of Swords and A Feast for Crows, there’s a lovingly crafted medieval-style alley. It’s like peering right into Westeros.
The attention to detail in this diorama is beautiful, from the sword and shield placed at the entrance to the cobblestone pathway leading to the doorstep of the Dragon Tavern. And there’s even a little dragon in there! Creativity at its finest.
You can learn more about this project on the creator’s Kickstarter page, which gives a breakdown of costs, timeline, etc. You can even get one of these book nooks for yourself! The Wizard miniAlley gives its onlookers a mysterious illusion that the alley continues through the wall. How is this possible? The trick is the angled mirror placed at the end of the alley. But don’t tell your friends and family that too early – let them figure it out and have their minds blown with this witchcraft.
Meanwhile, Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke is exploring her creativity by writing her own comics. Do you like this tiny version of Westeros-inspired alley? Talk to us in the comments below!
