Physical scale models

CHE · June 1st, 2002

These are 2 of my physical scale models. The bridge was developed for an university project and the building was developed for an architectural office project. Any comments are welcome. Thanks

Samp,

Building:

It was done within a week (plus some overtime hours).
The main model (the city) was already set up, but it needed a lot of detailing work.
It was really fun working with the building, as you can see, it has a funny curved shape, Plus it wasn't easy to model the main roof. I'll post some pics of the unfinished base of the building.

Bridge:

It was done for a school project. It took me 1 day and half to finish it. Non-stop. I was out of money at that time so I used regular wood, a very hard material to model with. I used glue and nails to put it all together, and a bunch of small handsaws to model all the parts. I ended up dreaming about bridges. [img]Graemlin/biggrin2.gif[/img]

Thanks for the comments Samp and Strat!
