This is the kind of thing I'd wallpaper my rec room with if I had one. So many neat little things to discover. I especially liked the apple orchard and the Snow White parade. Thanks goodnewsfortheinsane! posted by Shecky at 11:50 AM on February 15, 2007
I feel 6 years old again. Can someone get me this Lego set for Christmas? posted by fleetmouse at 12:03 PM on February 15, 2007
Pshht, but can he do it in two point perspective rather than isometric?
I mean... Wow. That's huge. I'll need some time here... posted by Roger Dodger at 12:09 PM on February 15, 2007
If this artwork is from mainland China (as I assume), I am struck by how it is a reiteration of all that was hella cool innovation from the late 20th century USA . . . here's hoping we in the US can continue to be frontrunners in this area. posted by Heywood Mogroot at 12:13 PM on February 15, 2007
Huh. Taiwan has the space shuttle now.
Also, some motorists are presumably exchanging insurance info after a rear-ender, while in the opposite lane a violent police chase is underway.
And I wonder what "services" the lady in the pink cabin offers...
I'm totally rooting for the blue football side btw, that goalie is well too far from his line. posted by goodnewsfortheinsane at 12:13 PM on February 15, 2007
I would've hidden a mugging or some senseless murder in there somewhere.
of course, I have issues so.... posted by Parannoyed at 12:14 PM on February 15, 2007
This is (still) very cool and all, but I'd rather see credit where credit's due. Lovepixel's responsible for this amazing piece, if I'm not mistaken. (The original.) The Digg discussion over here also has lots of other sites to explore, as well as zips and stuff (unless they've been taken down). posted by soundofsuburbia at 12:15 PM on February 15, 2007 [1 favorite]
More than anything, I'm reminded of Syndicate. I'm not sure I have the patience to go looking for the minigun-wielding cyborg posse, though. posted by MadDog Bob at 12:20 PM on February 15, 2007
Excellent, soundofsuburbia, thanks. I stumbled onto this randomly and had no idea where it was from. posted by goodnewsfortheinsane at 12:23 PM on February 15, 2007

goodnewsfortheinsane: Yeah, I figured it was like that.
And now I shall explore the streets once more! posted by soundofsuburbia at 12:42 PM on February 15, 2007
This person clearly has never seen the roof of a supermarket. posted by Mr.Encyclopedia at 2:01 PM on February 15, 2007
Am I the only one who kept looking for people having sex somewhere? posted by papercake at 2:12 PM on February 15, 2007
Heywood Mogroot, just in case you didn't see goodnewsfortheinsane's post right after yours: It was very definitely from Taiwan, not from Mainland. Check the space shuttle if you're not sure.
I've been to some of the places mentioned in the Chinese: Wanfang 萬芳 is a suburb of Taibei, and the Locking Battle is clearly going on in a derivative of 西門町 Ximending. It's a very cute version of Taibei, basically. Cool beans! posted by jiawen at 3:18 PM on February 15, 2007

Huh? Other then the space shuttle, which sort of borders early/mid 20th century, what are you talking about? posted by delmoi at 5:22 PM on February 15, 2007
I loved this! posted by serazin at 10:01 PM on February 15, 2007
