Goodness gracious that is awesome. Your first pic is a little misleading. It looked a little fig on a plate for a moment until I took a closer look and realized the editing that went on there. The city in the dome is simply brilliant without the lights. Add the lights, nothing but net. Masterpiece. Well done.

ravishingly beautiful!

Fantastic!

Just like you're daughters, I like them both. But I do Side with Kairi a BIT more...

Brilliantly done Batman! And here I always thought you had a grudge against Superman. :P It's really cool how you built a microscale city AND added lighting! Excellent job!

Thanks for the compliments AND thank you for all your work in judging!

I guess I should have used more black ;) Thanks for all your hard work in judging this contest.

Glad you liked the lighting, the effects on the ground were a wonderful accident. Thanks for all your work judging.

I actually thought about taking that picture, but didn't think I looked enough like Le Luthor to pull it off. Thanks for all your work in the contest Calin.

Brilliant idea and masterful realised. The lighting is icing on the cake. Your score: 10 Pts.

Score = 9

I really love this creation!!! Although the area is small,you still can create a beautiful city!I really enjoy it!

I'll begin by saying that I consider we have Four Fantastic Winners in this contest. Every single one has scored a top mark in his/her own particular way. Whether it was ingenuity in using available parts, sensitivity in chromatic choices, cleverness in manipulating ideas or plain (and sometimes subtle) humor, they all managed to really impress through fantastic, skillful MOC's. That being said, please understand that my score will ONLY reflect the sad necessity of having a first and second place in our contest, as I'm determined not to leave Xenomurphy to face this decision all alone. ----- As for your MOC: I won't insist on your mad building skills, or the perfect control in all that crazy shaping and detailing, or the flawless use of parts in creating the shrunken city. I also won't insist on the fantastic atmosphere created through use of lights, which adds so much life to your creation! For me, this is just a Brilliant idea and mind blowing ability to manipulate it! It's large, but it's microcale. It's a city with its own pulsating life, and yet it fits your hand. And speaking of which, has anyone tried to imagine Mr. Kaleta HOLDING THIS CREATION IN HIS HAND? Think about it for a minute... we just might have a Super Hero amongst us. Congratulations, Fantastic One :)! Your score = 9

Just brought this over to my local comic shop (http://firstaidcomics.wordpress.com/) where it will be used to promote an author signing on August 9th by Larry Tye (http://www.larrytye.com/) who wrote a fascinating book on Superman. Be sure to check it out if you're in Hyde Park!

Awesome Dave, i love this brilliant idea, and the effect that you have done on in the main photo. Really a Master work.

Ha! I was wondering if you'd remember that; you still need to build it as I gave you that canopy to use :)

Oh so THIS is what you had in mind for my fortress of solitude all that time ago... Now that I have enough white I may revisit that idea in the future. In the mean time, this is AWESOME! Love the play on size thing you have going! And the life lites really bring it to... well... life! Good luck! ~ Chris.

We'll have to credit Davey on the lighting, as he's the one who got me to purchase those lifelights. But I learned a good deal about mircoscale from watching you!

Yeah, sorry I didn't get to share more WIPs, I was a tad busy. The first version had more white below the jar and the letters of Kandor were much larger and more stylized; then I realized you wouldn't be able to read them without turning the jar - fail. And yes, I do like to test the limits from time to time :)

No, just tan :)

Hehe, nice image editing ;)

Love the colors and all the detail you packed into the city, and the lighting is the icing on the cake.

Great Job! Thank you for adding me as a favorite builder, but I wanted to ask you if you had done it because you think I am a good builder, or if it is because I added you as a favorite. If it is the second, I would ask that you remove me from your favorite builders until I earn it.

Great idea, and well executed too! Love the added lighting.

Excellent job. Many original ideas perfectly executed! Is the top made of "golden" pieces¿?

It's one thing to build an amazing microcity. But to put it under "glass"? Genius! Nifty parts usage. Great effects with the lights. Impressive idea! 10 points.

The main pic is a hit!! Excellent!! I love the concept and the light effects bring a great value. Brilliant idea!

Brilliant ! Such a great effect in the dark, and the city its self is so immaculately done, magic stuff !>.....well done

Great build Dave! I expected to see Bruce Wayne of course, but this was a great surprise. Thanks for the tips on the lighting, I checked out the site and placed an order for some LED's!

It wouldn't be a genuine Kaleta if it didn't stretch the boundaries of category and brick. I did see your WIP of this on Flickr and knew the finale would involve lighting; you did not disappoint. Well played, Detective, well played indeed!~H

You got me scratching my head with that first pic, outstanding effects! The take on the subject is very creative and the execution of the plan is masterful, great job Dave!

THis is just excellent !!!

Whether it gets DQed or not, I enjoyed the dual nature of it being a microscale city built life-size. That's what drew me to the subject and made it fun!

The big blue boy scout, really? Hahaha, this is a neat take on the category, detective. The city is as brilliant as the display with the word Kandor inbuilt. The filigree lightning is a perfect addition to the whole creation, as is the old comic cover. ----- Technically, it counts as micro, since the city itself is a) smaller than in "real life", in this case, smaller than Kandor in the comics and b) the citizens of Kandor in this MOC are smaller than minifigs.

Interesting how this is both microscale and life size at the same time, which brings up a question: is it technically microscale? technically, it's more macro, since it should be smaller than say a superman minifig. on the other hand...AARGH, i dont know, it's too confusing. I'd say it counts though. nice job! :)

Pretty crafty there, Bats! Good luck!

Very well done! Fantastic work Dave, beautiful. When I was looking at the pain picture it took me a moment to work out what scale I was looking at! The globe is stunning and the city inside gorgeously made. Fantastic stuff. Good luck in the competition! --Blast--

Wow indeed! Love the main photo. Good luck :D

Wow, amazing work! I love the cool details and the lighting is brilliant!

Absolutely amazing build. Great parts usage all around and the lights really bring the city to life. Superb job.

Many MOCs are awesome, some are stunning, almost none is perfect. This is perfect. It looks like a 30s illustration of a futuristic city, which is the way Kandor's supposed to look.

You're probably looking at the large technic scuba flippers which were used as engine details in the last Space Police theme. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=32008

I was definitely constrained by the windscreen size (this was the largest I could get in clear), but if you approve, then it must have worked out okay :)

Nick, Different comic artists have different interpretations, so there is no one universal standard for Kandor. This is how I chose to interpret it. ~Dave

Very nice, I really like the light up shots. The intricacy of the creation is inspiring, well done.

awesome! 5/5

Again, fantastic superhero build, and that whole superman holding the city on the comic book, just awesome. Just wondering though is the city really white in the comics or is it your awesome interpretation?

That's a beautiful little city. The comic cover is fantastic too.

Wow! Strange, original & looks great. Impressive photo editing on the cover photo as well. Brilliant!

"Sure I play with them every now and again (Every night to be honest)...." Love it mate. The lights are great but the highlight is the tiny Kryptonian architecture. When said you were doing Kandor i wondered if the 'bottled' part was going to restrict the overall size but I love the shapes you've achieved at the tiny scale. That first picture/ cover is class too. Well done mate, good luck!

Wonderful build. I almost thought you had created something of minifig scale (as in something that fit in Superman's hand) when I saw the first image. 'Shop me in disbelief! Love all the intricate details you put into the snowglobe city ^_^

I'm speechless! :)

Absolutely beautiful, man! The lighting effects really work here.

Great idea, well built.

Awesome! Dave, you got it made. (Literally)

Incredible. It looks fantastic, and the way you made it light up is even better. Great work.

Dave you never cease to amaze. I love all the little details and with the lights on it truly comes to life. Outstanding!!

Clever.

Great job on this one and cool that microscale was apropos for the story line.

Dude! Haha, what a take on the category, and the cover of Superman holding it is just gold dude. Hmmm, tough to beat this...

Wow that really cool good work.

This is beautiful, like the most enchanting snow globe. It is made so delicate and full of lots of little bits to give the city life that I can't even recognise most of them. They have just become a mini city.

Awesome! but how did you get superman to hold it?

Wow, great job with Kandor!

Kal-El would approve and so do I! Now to get KANDOR back to normal size!

great microscaling! love the interior- great PU there! the ring around the edge is fantastic, and the word 'Kandor' around the edge is incredible! best of luck!

Very cool Dave! I love the lighting effects! The idea is great! I love this micro city! Good luck in the contest!

Fantastic lighting! Excellent build in micro scale! Good luck :)
