There is indeed way to an abundance of good work here, so well done ElBundy, way to make an entrance here!
Probably any single one of these would have been an impressive thread subject by itself, but as others have found above, my favorite is the photo studio. Particularly the monitor screen matching up to what is being photographed -- a clever and convincing detail that sells the reality.
Where your displays are made to fit inside the cube form of an IKEA shelf, that constraint necessarily gets you past the lazy limitation that most of us experience when we are making dioramas to be photographed -- which is just photographing a staged scene from front and center, and the picture border just cuts off what is on the left and the right. But how much more convincing does the picture become when you see a corner, or ideally even two corners, as you do. It's almost like the days of early movie making, when they used to shoot every scene locked in like a proscenium arch theatre stage, and then suddenly they figured out how you could use angles and camera placements to make an impact. Setting up 1/6 side walls (instead of a mere backdrop) takes more work but it's one of the things that make these ELBundy displays much more convincing. Something I myself too frequently fail to do, so it's good to be reminded.
