Those of you who make your own environments, pieces or props, what is your favourite? Or which one do you remember most?
For me, my favourite so far has to be my city centre / street set. I really like setting stories in urban environments. Most everything (pavements, buildings, etc) was made of cardboard, with print outs for wall and concrete textures. Tried and tested, sure, but was memorable for the fact that I really had to plan everything, which I am usually very bad at.

I had a great bit of storage shelf in my basement that I used to create this, and i loved the light and angles I could get from it

I liked that it looked like a wood plank floor.

SIC, that building is truly amazing.
Did you use real brick slabs? if so that thing must be a beast to move. if not than the detail is all the more amazing.

I can attest to the strength of Tracker's card stock pieces. I use some computer consoles he made in every other shot...they're great!
