Having collected a body of photographs from my research I decided to create my own buildings out of pieces from the photographs. Here are some of the results. I feel they have an incredibly science fiction feel about them, even though all of the parts used would be considered old technology. I think they have the perfect look about them to be buildings within Melpomenia. I painted some buildings around the collages to give them a better grounding within their intended surroundings. I Think that in itself this technique works as it gives depth to the images. I will now draw from these collages and see how that works as I am not sure that the photography will fit in with the rest of my intended designs. However, i will not disregard the possibility that the project could evolve further.
