How to Build a 3d City Model
You can make three dimensional models of a number of things with just a handful of basic art supplies. City models are smaller or bigger models of a measurable thing. A three dimensional model or more commonly known as 3D can be seen from each and every angle. On the other hand, majority of the city models are built as cheap prototypes of big and expensive design ideas. A person’s comprehension of an object’s dimensions can be improved by viewing at a 3D city model if they see it at different angles. There are several ways to build a good 3D city model.
Instructions
-
1
Produce a little drawing of the city
Draw a coherent sketch of the view of every side of the city. Ascertain the size and note down all the dimensions of the actual object on the conformable parts in the sketch. -
2
Find out the best scale for the city model
Multiply or divide the biggest size of the object to calculate the best scale for the model. For example, a little object that is ten inches in length can be multiplied by 2 to make a model that will be 20 inches in length. Similar to that, a big object with a length of 10 feet can be divided by 1 to build a model that is ten feet in length. -
3
Make use of a calculator
Put in effect the scale decrease or increase to all the other calculations from the drawing sketches. A calculator can help you to double check your findings and will provide you with accurate measurements at all times. -
4
Build the 3D city model
Sketch the recently scaled object sizes on a card stock. Check the edges for sharp lines and see their lengths with the help of a ruler. In order to draw curves, a drafting pencil should be used. -
5
Trim the newly made model
Separate all pieces of the model object with care by the assistance of scissors. Cut wavy cardboard add ons for big card stock panels with a sharp knife. Craft sticks or balsa wood can also be used to make light weight add ons.
Moreover, draw things on any side of the card stock pieces with a marker. Paste the cardboard or wood supports on the panel backside and let them to dry in order to strengthen. After that, attach the card stock panel with the detailed stuff showing out to build the 3D city model.
