What methods are there to make building models?

When making a model, we must first consider the "utilization method" or "expression method" of the model. According to "utilization mode", policies and proportions can be determined. The scale of large-scale models such as urban planning and residential planning is generally 1/3000- 1/5000, and buildings such as buildings are often 1/200- 1/50, which is usually the same as the design drawings. In addition, if it is a residential model, it is slightly different from other buildings. If the building is not very big, it can be seen clearly with 1/50. In general, the production order is to determine the proportion first, and then make the site model for construction. The modeler must also know the terrain elevation difference, landscape impression and so on. Planning and processing through the brain, and then more research and analysis, and then you can start making models.

2. Pedestal and construction site

After the proportion is determined, I can start making models. I usually use to make model bases and bases first. If the building site is flat, it is easy to make a model. If the site is uneven and there are adjacent buildings in the performance requirements, the method of making the model is different according to the different measurement methods. Especially in complex terrain, urban planning and other large-scale sites, it is often to make a terrain model in advance and design the scheme while watching the model. Therefore, it is necessary to make more efforts on the terrain model, but it is not necessary to make the terrain too fine.

Contour method (multilayer pasting method)

The height difference of the site is large, so when using contour lines as the model, it is necessary to make a plate according to contour lines in advance, cut along the curve of contour lines and paste it into terraced terrain. In this case, the selected materials are cork cardboard and styrene paper, especially styrene blown cardboard, which can be cut into smooth curves by battery hot cutter.
