The Cardboard Master, Chris Gilmour, creates meticulous sculptures of almost every genre.  To explain more he states in an interview:

The reason for the choice of objects has always been pretty much the same- they call up memories and emotions connected to our experience of these (everyday) things. Since this is both a visual and conceptual work I choose objects for their visual appeal and cultural resonance, but I also usually choose objects which imply an action or interaction of some sort.

The detail of his work with glue and cardboard is over the top; zoom in to appreciate and zoom out to be fooled into thinking its the real thing.

Which is for you, the badass trike or the quiet ride down Main St?

American’s don’t have these classy rides that have always looked so much fun to drive in a European countryside.

And to end with, a violin solo.

  1. This is unreal. Both bikes especially, and of course the statue. Now, is it a plastic paris interpretation, or are these creations actually manifested purely from thin air. Be it the latter, I'm blown away.
