edp2 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Hi This is a simple idea I had for producing a factory background. I found some photos on cgtextures and used them to create a very low relief background but the same method could be used to produce a building. This is 4 sets of the photos I started with I made a little test piece of wall made from grey card and some scalescene papers It's not quite sized right but is the effect I wanted. I them took the full size sheet of card and marked up the windows and concrete [ Cut out all the windows Printed scalescene bricks on to full sheet labels. Folded back the window sections and scored and removed the concrete areas. Added the sills and the taped the windows to the back of the card That's it nearly finished. it needs the top of the wall finishing off and then some weathering. Hope this is of interest.

edp2 Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 Hi I did a liitle more work on the warehouse today. The top of the wall has been trimmed and finished with a strip of card to represent coping stones. I've then weathered it as far as I dare with some thin black paint. I've photographed it in 3 different lights. This type of warehouse usually has internal downspouts. One of the warehouses at work is similar to this building. Old metal downspouts have a nasty habit of leaking into electrics, never mind their ability to leak over something valuable. I suspect the original idea was to keep the building more secure from robbery. Anyway this is quite a simple method to produce a building, especially the windows. Thanks for looking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
