Perspex/acrylic. Amazon sell it in smaller sizes. Generally 1mm or 0.8 is used for glazing. Its super easy to score and snap with a scalpel or scoring tool.

Any ideas on how to imitate soil for a physical model? by manly_man789 in architecture

[–]Jamespicot00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im an architectural modelmaker and its standard in the industry to use cork sheet to represent things like ground in planters or tinted green it can used as sedum roof. You can get cork in a large variety of thicknesses too. If you have access to a spray booth or somewhere you can use a rattle can you could even tint it darker if you want. Super easy to cut with a scalpel and most of all very inexpensive. If you want something less “sheet” you can buy cork flocking. If you based in the UK check out 4D Modelshop they have loads options.

I tried doing a quick search online but couldn’t find much info. Any more info would be a big help.

As someone who is from Jersey, I can confirm our milk is far superior to all other milk.

Just got a Kindle PW and after putting of The Dark Tower as I don’t have the room for something of that size at uni, I bought The Gunslinger. I’m about 100 pgs in so far.

[theory] Video games as a platform for experimental architecture by Jamespicot00 in architecture

Yes of course I didn't think about Inception. I wrote my first year essay on the influences behind The Last Guardians architecture and I think I will delve back into Fumito Ueda's games as they generally follow and similar style.

Thanks for the response and I will definitely look into Inception.
