a lovely inn - a three musketeers diorama

Show it on TMP and I liked it very much:

the original poster doesnot provide more details/link etc and I cannot figure the scale and possibly other details.
however is a very nice job and thought to repost it here.
thanks to the original posters and a great bravo for the creator

Yes, exquisite, but I didn't realize Ben Franklin was old enough to have been around when the Musketeers were in business - I mean, I know he lived to a ripe age and all... lol

Looks like the man in the green jacket at top the stairs is a minimal conversion from a Franklin figure, identify it and identify the scale for certain, me thinks.

It's 54mm.  Here's Andrea's Porthos.  Compare it to figure in second picture from TMP link.



The blacksmith's tools in picture 8 also look like Historex pieces.

A fantastic 54mm diorama, and really beutiful. However, is this just a diorama or something that is actually meant for gaming?

Really impressive and a beautiful job.

However I am often left wondering, what do you do with it once its finished?
It doesnt seem to be a gaming piece, and its probably too big for an average home to display (assuming the creator enjoys making these, and thus makes more...). So, a museum perhaps??
