There are a lot of those here. I found these images in the "extras" folder on the (DVD). They are architectural drawings that set designers use to envision and then to build their scenes and create their sets. They illustrate some of the many sets that may need to constructed. The illustrations also bring some light into new projects.
Greeble is used to add effects and thus to add interesting facets to a model. So many model and special effect makers use parts from scale model kits for their greeble. I am not under no contract, nor do I have a large budget for these kits.
The greeble on the left were creating by cutting small pieces from a square tube. The greeble on the left are either under construction or have been completed using bits of left over plastic from other projects.
Greeble can be something as simple as adding geometrical shapes, such as vertical and horizontal strips to a scratch built model. Patterns can be created by stacking strips vertically or horizontally. You could also add small bits of round or square rods into some some sort of simple pattern.
Greeble can be created from just about anything. Take these two pieces of sprue and the inter-workings of a deodorant applicator.

Although my formulas for representing rust are similar they are never are the same, so I thought I would start to document my rust processes and decide which formula works best.
Color variations of rust can be found in variation of colors such as orenge for new rust too dark brown, for old rust.
Rust can be simulated by using paints, chalk, chemicals, a combination of these methods, and by using other substances like sprinkled cinnamon on a dark base background.

Several of these craft were built all the way up to 1/4 scale. Very interesting behind-the-scenes look at the special effects and the miniatures that went into production of this film.

There is alot of this kind of stuff on the bonus materials DVD. Concept art, story boards, and comentaries all give you a behind the scenes look into the making of this triology. The producers use these story boards and concept art to help visualize and set-up scenes and to help fill out the persona of for their characters.

I found this image on a bonus materials DVD for the Indiana Jones trilogy. This scene was created in miniature for the Last Crusade. The Last Crusade was the third film in the trilogy and depicted Jones's search for the golden chalice. The movie depicts Jones traveling around the globe and getting himself in and out of many precarious situations.
The adventures of tiny toy cars features several miniature toy cars roughing it through some playful but yet precarious landscapes.
Some other miniatures present on the site.

Parking in the city can still be found at a preminum. Vehicles are brought into the building parking area by a conveyor.
Data stacks allows the user to visualize the accumulated data on the whole population.
Data is collected and is indexed by using iris scans. Scans are done routinely when entering buildings of all sorts. In stores, personalized holograms are created with merchandise suggestions matching personal profiles.

When the street cleaner was done with sweeping the streets of our community this season he stopped at a place outside of town and raised and locked the brushes in place, what ever was stuck up in the bristles came tumbling down. The debris included various coins, dirt, small bits of gravel, and loads of bits of plastic and metal parts.
Although I have up to this day I have retrieved nearly ten dollars in coin, some of most valuable finds are bits of plastic and metal. The image only shows a small sampling of what was picked out of the greeble patch.
I can’t say what will become of what I have found. Some of it might just hit the rubbish bin , but you never no what might become useful on some future project.
Major, Scarlett Johansson, walks across a street in this urban scene. The very common holograms, in this case fish, can be seen floating around and even through objects like Major. The color and complex layers of animation throughout this film are amazing.

It has been a long while since I last visited Disney World and its Hollywood Studios, so the mention of the Tower of Terror is new to me, however it is no less fascinating.

Machine City or Synthient City was the home to the machines in the world of the Matrix.
In this short video the author takes you through the process of adding rivets to his armored panels. Although he is adding these to his Gas Lands vehicles, the same technique could be used wherever you wanted to add rivets.
The user used a ball point pen to emboss the material, but one could use an object that has a smaller diameter, such as the tip of a tooth pick.
