Wow this is great. From the looks, you created a lot of stuff with a 3D printer that I had no idea could be done. What exactly is 3D printed?

Most of the buildings are foamcore and packaging plastic, but once Im back in school this fall I'll have access to a good sized laser cutter, so I'm working on some designs to make similar buildings out of styrene or some other reasonably durable plastic I can get in large sheets. Lots of the details are either stuff I've bought or cobbled together, but specifically it's the signs on the buildings, the black railings, the radio tower, and the stoplight that were 3d printed.

The radio tower needs a few design tweaks, it is supposed to be four sides that interlock and the dish/antenna piece fits over, but the tabs and slots didn't quite match up so it wound up 3 sided, also the antennas were really flimsy, had to glue both back on. Still works, but not what I planned. I might be able to produce a few once I fix the design, right now my 3d printer access is somewhat limited. The school I go to closes the fabrication lab for the summer, but I've been able to continue prototyping stuff at a different school where I work. I've cut back my work hours for a few weeks before things get crazy again in fall, I'm planning to work on these designs and more in the near future.

I'm transferring pics to my computer, hopefully they'll post better from here. So far what's come through are some pinball machines I made, not really part of the city yet but a fun project. I'll post more when they send.

Here's the Chinese restaurant with secret upstairs training room, and some more shots of the large brick building.
