The work is finally done: Avenida Reforma, Mexico City, at 1:4000 scale, complete with vegetation. Months of work went into this—see the photos below. I hope you like it.
All my work involves individually modeling each structure without relying on any other sources or AI, as those often provided incorrect data regarding the city and the actual dimensions of the buildings.
Hi, I’m an architecture student here in Mexico, and I’ve spent a long time working on this project.
It’s a 1:4000 scale model of Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City; feel free to visit my profile for updates.
This time, I’m sharing a monochromatic version, though the addition of trees really elevates the quality of the project.
I still have a few more to add, but I wanted to share my progress.
Hi, I am an architecture student in Mexico, and I've spent a long time working on this model.
Each building was modeled individually, without using any helper sites or AI, since those would consistently get the scale wrong or clump small buildings together too much.
This is a multi-color 3D print of the model.
Hi, I’m from Mexico and have spent a huge amount of time modeling my city for 3D printing. It is very important to me that the scale is accurate and doesn't overly cluster the small buildings and houses. This is my process—is there any way to speed this up? Many databases, like Google Earth, are 15 years out of date, and I’m not sure how I could streamline the whole thing.
