This article explains the overall process of creating the “Gol Maryam” residential complex model at a 1:150 scale using plexiglass, automotive paint, and acrylic paint in a realistic style, with focused lighting on the buildings and the surrounding area.

1. Preparing Drawings and Design Documents
   To begin, the site plan of the residential complex, the facades of the buildings, and the layout of the surrounding area, including pathways, green spaces, and parking, are carefully prepared using CAD software (like AutoCAD or Revit) or manually on technical sheets. The dimensions of each residential block, the distance between them, and the final model size (according to the 1:150 scale) are determined in this step.
2. Selecting Plexiglass Sheets and Appropriate Thickness
   Clear plexiglass is selected for the main building components (walls and roofs), and colored or matte plexiglass is chosen for the floors and ground surface. The typical thickness is 2–3 mm for floors and walls, and 1–2 mm for the facade components. This variation in thickness helps enhance detail and reduce the weight of the model.
3. Precise Cutting with Laser or CNC
   The design plan is fully aligned on the plexiglass sheets, and all cut lines (walls, openings, columns) are executed using a laser cutter or CNC machine. High precision at this stage is crucial for achieving clean, smooth edges. After cutting, the edges are polished with sandpaper (400–600 grit) to maintain the plexiglass’s clarity and appearance.
4. Initial Assembly and Structural Adjustment
   The cut pieces are initially assembled without adhesive (dry fit) to ensure they align properly. Then, the parts are glued in sequence using two-part acrylic adhesive. Small clamps and angle gauges are used to ensure proper alignment and accuracy.
5. Realistic Painting

• Automotive Paint: Applied to the building facades to create a glossy, realistic appearance. This paint is sprayed or applied with a gun and then baked in small ovens (or home drying cabinets).
• Acrylic Paint: Applied to floors, pathways, and green areas using brushes or spray. Multiple layers of thinned acrylic paint are used to give a natural, matte finish to the surroundings.

1. Installing Central Lighting System
   For lighting the buildings and surrounding areas:

• A cable routing path under the model’s base is designed.
• Miniature LED lights (single color or adjustable) are embedded inside the building roofs to illuminate through the windows.
• The surrounding area is lit with miniature streetlights and buried lights, illuminating the pathways and green spaces.
• All cables are hidden in an under-model channel and connected to a central power source.

1. Final Details and Presentation
   After completing the painting and lighting, additional details such as small furniture, model shrubs (made with fibrous hair or colored foam), and 1:150 scale people are added. An MDF or thicker plexiglass base is used to support the model, and a label reading “Gol Maryam Residential Complex – Scale 1:150” is attached. Finally, the model is protected in a glass cabinet or with a plastic cover to ensure durability during exhibitions or presentations.

With carefully prepared drawings, professional cutting, realistic painting, and focused lighting, the Gol Maryam residential complex model will be both visually attractive and informative.
