Landscape model How did the sand table company make it? What are the production processes and steps? If you want to learn, just follow the manufacturer of model sand table!
First, prepare some common tools, such as steel ruler, scissors, quick drying adhesive, double-sided adhesive, PVC, plastic board, straw powder, white adhesive, etc.
Then, you need to print your own main building design sketch according to CAD, and cut it according to the required scale (pay attention to the scale).
After distinguishing the content to be produced, you can first make the site.
1. Set sandbox frame
The chassis is set to guide the assembly process of later sand table model components. If you need to create some terrain, you should create terrain after this step. The setting of the chassis is to draw the chassis identification diagram, pave the way for other components in the later stage, and provide a guiding instruction process. The chassis drawing is one of the drawings designed and produced.
2. Set Terrain Features
Terrain production is the operation after the chassis map is paved. Terrain production on it according to the topographic map, including the initial state of the waterscape, needs to be carried out in this step. Of course, the real water landscape is different from this production step.
3. Make a small tree
First, we need to select the basic material of the trunk - metal wire.
Wire has two characteristics. It is easy to bend, not easy to break, and not easy to oxidize.
These three characteristics can be met.
Stick gum and tree powder together and you're done!

4. Garden sketch production:
Sawdust - Uses sawdust as a relief image, but uses thin material. Its method is to cut the sawdust in proportion, use a meat cutter to draw a pattern on the back of the thin sawdust, turn it over and stick it to the required position with construction glue, which becomes a relief.
Silly Putty - Silly Putty of various colors can be shaped into many architectural sketches. Give it a bright color.
Chalk - After being processed by a carving knife, chalk can be made into a statue with a plexiglass base.
5. Water surface:
Sand table waterscape is mainly divided into two parts: the production of water surface and waterscape.
1. Digging and cutting reverse pasting method. First, cut out the shape of the water surface at the planned position of the model, and stick a layer of lake blue organic glass under the table splint.
2. Plane superposition method. This method is simply to stick a watercolor sticker or watercolor paper on the model table, and then cover it with a layer of transparent film or transparent glass.
3. The third method is similar to.
6. Road production:
The road can be cut into blocks and compensated at zero point, which is applicable to any material. The specific methods are as follows: a. Take a piece of required materials and draw the plan of the overpass on the materials; B. Cut the pavement according to the lines; c. The same material is connected to the lower side of the annular pavement, and the same material is also connected to the upper side of the annular pavement for standby.
7. Terrain production:
Rough machining of large drill once.
After rough machining is completed, a rough outline is drawn, then a small drill is replaced, and the foam is cut again according to the finer data, which is called finish machining.
Use a compressed air gun and a cleaning brush to remove cut foam debris.
The primer shall be sprayed before painting. The function of the primer is to seal the porous surface of the foam to prevent the ink sprayed with color from penetrating into the holes, and the color will be uneven.
8. Others:
Manufacturing method of plexiglass:
It is a traditional method to make titles, compasses and scales with plexiglass and stick them on the panel. This method has strong stereoscopic effect and is eye-catching.
Its disadvantage is that the color of polymethyl methacrylate is too bright, which is often inconsistent with the color in the plate. In addition, in the process of contentment, it is difficult to deal with the inscription in a standardized way, so few people make it in this way now.
Post it notes: At present, many model makers use post it notes as titles, compasses and scales.
First, use a computer engraving machine to process the content, and then use transfer paper to paste the content on the chassis. This method is simple, convenient and beautiful. In addition, the post it notes are colorful and easy to choose.
