When you think of model railroads, you might think of picturesque villages, miniature trees and pristine wagons. If you were Peter Feigenbaum, however, you'd take a look at the real, dirty world and shrink it to layout size. The architecture student and illustrator's ultra-realistic railroad sets include all the graffiti and urban decay of a typical downtown stroll.
Check the picture above for the insanely detailed side streets in one of Peter's models, and marvel at the mind of a man whose can title a project: "How to simulate arcing electricity and the resulting bright blue flash of light."
