Scale and models

Currently the project is gearing up for end of year presentations and exhibition.
The last few days I've been making a larger contour model (which has had issues with warping), to then make a plaster caster model to show the transforming state of an open cut mine.
A few images to represent...
Site scale comparison to Melbourne CBD - I knew the mine was large but putting it into context really demonstrates this
