RudyU Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Here is a tower I built using poster board and the little mirror tiles from my old disco ball. I then added the landscaping using the standard model greenery supplies. Placing each mirror tile next to each other, getting them to line up exactly was a little tedious, but as time went on it was fun! After I made it, it reminded me a lot of the First City Tower...the 49 story parallelogram building in downtown. Hope you like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrose1100 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The only problem I have with this is destroying a Disco Ball. Shame on you. Just kidding, looks cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RudyU Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 The only problem I have with this is destroying a Disco Ball. Shame on you. Just kidding, looks cool. HAHA! Yea, the disco ball was given to me by a friend about 5 years ago, and all it did was "hang" there, as it didn't have a motor on it to make it spin. I had no spotlight either so I figured I could use the mirrors for....a building!! If it would have been a vintage disco ball...no way would I have destroyed it.

RudyU Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 A "Lakeside Studio" I built last year. First model I've made using a contour layout for the sloping ground. Same materials were used...poster board and model greenery. I truly like this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RudyU Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 A "copy" of a model I seen online of the Malcom X College recently built in Chicago. The last image is of the professional model I used to construct my own model. My model, at nearly the same angle, is the previous picture. Just a simple model using poster board and greenery. The only hard part of this model was inserting the floors inside the nearly all-glass buildings, and avoiding smearing glue all over the windows lol. It was fun though.
