Hi guys, I recently got into 3D modelling different cities. I think my favourite so far is Toronto.
I actually have an etsy shop where I sell my models so I don’t want to share my stl files, but I am happy to explain my creation process! It’s not too complicated.
Next is i am going to print in Red white Red Canadian Flag and full scale print can go to 7 ft that’s the plan with my engineer i am working on making it hollow section to put LED
There’s a blender add on called blender-osm that will take open source city data and create the buildings/landscapes.
But be warned it’s not perfect and there is still clean up and editing that needs to be done. For example I cut out the water parts by hand (my personal choice to remove it) and sometimes buildings will come out floating/incomplete so I will have to clean that up myself. Not all cities have good data (for example the eiffel tower in Paris comes out as a solid block), so sometimes it’s just too hard to do some cities.
