Description
Based off a small model I saw in a toyshop. Instead of buying it I took photos and made a pixel art version. Much cheaper, but also much more time consuming... xDI'm considering making more small buildings like this, so if you like it let me know!

Hey Joe, long time no see.
As always, this is a lovely representation of the source material. You have crammed some very nice detail into such a small package, The text is very distinct and should be readable to someone that knows the language, (I'm sure you are a better judge of that than me though ) Love the small details like the Ramen bowls and the stacked baskets behind the flag sign. Looks like it would be really nice to spend an evening after work chilling with a friend and enjoying a hot bowl of Miso ^_^...great now I want Ramen hehe

Long time no see!
I'm really glad you like the text (even if you can't read it xD). You wouldn't believe how long it took to get it to look right at such a small size. But one of the reasons I made the whole piece so small was to make it more of a challenge, and I'm planning on making a few more like this at some point. I actually live in Japan now so I'm getting loads of inspiration again.

I wanted to do a critique but no more word for it x)
Nice work ! I love this kind of building
It's will better with other tiles because There is a lack of constrast on the building, it's same thing with the package, the colors are very similar to wood
The flags look a little bit strange with the perceptive.
You do nice tiles, love it

Thanks for the mini-critique. I completely agree on the colours blending together a bit too much and the flag's perspective. I did try and fix them when making it, but in the end I started work on an other project and decided to release this as is. But at some point I might go back and try and fix the issues.

Thanks so much! I have a couple big things in the works, although I can't make any promises on when they'll come out.
