Using materials that would equally be at home amongst idyllic model train sets, artist Thomas Doyle builds incredibly intricate mixed media dioramas that instead suggest something much darker. The sense of loss and a brooding darkness is present in almost every piece, where homes dangle on sheer cliffs, or are surrounded by apocalyptic waste. The pieces above, entitled The Barrage Lifts, and Firing for Effect, are from his ‘Distillation’ series.

A Mercedes-Benz 300SL ‘Gullwing’, Porsche Spyder and pre-war Auto Union Grand Prix racer made entirely from reclaimed car parts and random bits of scrap metal by German firm Giganten Aus Stahl – exhibited at this years Frankfurt Motor Show.
Scrap, but not cheap. The Gullwing costs €69,000 and you can tow the Porsche and Auto Union away for €39,000 and €54,000 respectively.
