Has anyone a destroyed city like Dystopia after bombing or nuclear strike or else?
I need it as a part for my next Wallpaper.

it's pretty complicated... what i would suggest is if you have distopia to spread out hte buildings and just create the destroyed ones in between. with a bit of smoke and changed textures it could work.

no it should look like some ruins of the city
i tried to add some stones on the city and make them negative, group them with the buildings so it should look like the stones were the ripped off pieces
i can add some pictures if you need ;)

Attached Link: ruined city
I did it by using bryce rocks and negative boolean operations to cut out big chunks from buildings. Then I put in thin meshes to show the reinforcements. Good luck with the city!

You could always render the Dystopia city in Bryce from a top view,.........then in an image editor(such as Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro)convert that image to greyscale, then create a lattice terrain object using that greyscale image as your heightmap, then create the destructions with a brush in the terrain editor. Just a thought.

Sackrat has a good workable idea, but I would do an altitude render from top view instead of a regular render because the altitude render is already greyscale.

If you can find the UKKO3d 'USS Derelict' mat, that would probably work well. Ed Baumgarten has several ruined buildings for close-up work (Baument.com, if'n I remember correctly)
