I went to the CSI / CBS website - very infuriating. They are having some kind of contest re: spotting a doll in the program. Sorry but I can’t watch that program just for that.....but the title, “miniature killer” certainly is intriguing. I hate CBS with a passion that prevents me from watching their programs unless there is NO other choice....so please keep me informed about the miniatures shown on this show if you can. In the meantime, I’ll just go on the net searching for some good miniaturists sites and view some good things there.......sorry can’t do CSI.
Oh, OK. I didn’t get a chance to go to the website, anyway. Sorry - just thought maybe you had seen those episodes. They were quite intriguing and the miniatures were pretty good.
There is a doll’s picture that shows up in every crime scene roombox, so that’s probably what they want us to spot. I didn’t know what the contest was about - it was just something that was written down in the corner of the screen when they rolled credits and it flashed by too fast to read it.
I remember there was a forensic specialist who used 1:12 roomboxes to model crimes that he had his students solve and these were wonderful. The body would squirt blood if it needed to, all kinds of surprising moving parts. I saw them in several mainstream mags in addition to Nutshell, and also among the first things I saw online.
