@ bcat0805 just print form MS Paint and you shouldn't have any problems, and yes the paper size should be A4, unless you are printing on different size paper.
Since you dont have much time, do you have any buildings in mind?

For those that love Mies Van De Rohe - The Toronto Dominion Centre Complex here in Toronto, On CANADA was his largest ever work. Bregmann Hamman gets the credit as Mies was not licensed to operate in Ontario.

But they do give him a credit as "Consulting Architect"

One trick I use to put models together to make the skins stiffer:

Take the printed sheet and laminate on top of a couple of other sheets using spray glue. I find the Elmers Spray Adhesive to be the best for this.

NOTE: Make sure you let your sheets dry for at least 4 hours before you cut out your artwork from the sheets.

It also makes your buildings glow better if you light them from inside.

You're back! I'm excited to see what this/these? are! I'm counting what appears to be 12 different forms, possibly pieces, possibly buildings, possibly entirely to throw us off haha. I can't wait!
