Tilt Shift Photography

So with the new year comes more and more projects that I'd like to try out. I'm going to do a series using the tilt shift photography technique. Using selective focus to make the scene look miniture, there are lenses for this which fetch a hefty price so I'm doing all of mine in post with photos I'll be taking over the next few weeks.

Above is my first attempt at this using an old photo I took in Las Vegas a few years ago. Click for a larger version and let me know what you think, if it looks like a miniture model or not.
