Thnx for checking in guys! I made some pics of the buildings i am working on The weapons of choice  The bluefoam is very soft a easy to handle. By "drawing" the line with a fresh knife i make random markings and cuttings into the foam to create a random look. The houses on the pics look old and weary so that is the look i am going for. By pressing a piece of scotch brite into the foam you create a stone structure. After that i 'chipped' some stones with a sharp knife  A close up from the first house. The doors are made from plastic card carved in shape. Next are the windows and roof.  And the total set up ( so i have some work to do  )  |

This foam is used a lot by architects to build scale model buildings. Some webshops sell it like diodump.wix.com/diodump#!diorama-materials/c1cwk Working on it for about a hour a day keeps it fun and you realy can go into detailing your stuff thnx for thr comments guys!! |
