In an effort to inject some life and humanity into the exhibits at Budapest's Transport Museum, they decided to add some of the most lifeless and inhuman models I've seen since the dolls at Garmisch-Partenkirche. The only life in this black-eyed bicyclist is in the day-glo colours of his cap, shirt and trousers. |

|  | The Orange Bicyclist (close-up) The painted on eyebrows and cardboard moustache just help to emphasise its lack of humanness. |
| | The Scientist This guy is great. I had a professor just like him at university. He had the exact same paper-mache skin complexion, vacant eyes, and blunt scissor hairstyle. |
| | The Starter Every attempt I've ever made to animate a human has resembled a caveman with palsy, and even I can see that this pose is just wrong. |
| | The Little Taxi Girl Clearly the poor girl this particular mannequin was modeled after suffered from a severe case of Saint Vitus Dance. |
| | Telephone Operator Woman Help! Police! I'm trapped in a museum with hideously deformed monstrosities! |

Simply some of the best photography I have seen on VT. Liked the night shots but also the Uprising Memorial is stunning! Took the delux tour and saw it all. GRAZIE, <(•¿•)> | BruceDunning Tue Aug 4, 2009 00:11 UTC
After a trip to here, we want to go back and see it again and the countryside. Thanks for the tour and tips with great pictures. | Freebeacher Thu Jul 2, 2009 00:57 UTC
