Four Square Feet of City
Posted On December 24, 2011
As a Christmas present to myself, I completed the holiday preparations early enough that I could devote a few hours to finish up the big cityscape. So here they are, the last four blocks of the city-scape.
The round thing in the back is some sort of modern concrete sculpture/ nice place to snipe from. There’s a fountain tucked away behind the building right next to that concrete thingy. |
Here’s the detail of that fountain/sculpture. You’ll be able to see how it fits into the rest of the boards when I post a shot of the finished city. |
Two of the biggest buildings in the city. The one on the left is the tallest, and the one on the right helps to break up all the 90-degree angle sight-lines on the board. |
Tune in tomorrow for shots of the whole nine-square-feet of city laid out in all its glory. And Merry Christmas!

What do you do about level changes in the multi-storey buildings? Assume staircases?
That's a good question, and one worthy of a blog post. There are ladders built into many of the walls. There aren't really enough ladders, so we assume that there is also a ladder (not shown) leading up to the hatches in the corners of the buildings. You can see them in the big 4 story building above.
