As some of you know, I am working on a $500 budget layout, and right now, and I am down to $31, with more to disappear soon.

I know that there are some threads out there on making buildings out of your color printer and card stock or paper mounted on styrene...well, I have a printer, styrene, and the desire to try something. All of the buildings that I have found are either too old, all brick, or just one side. I am looking for corrugated metal buildings and concrete buildings....does anyone out there have any suggestions?

Try a couple of sites

Most notably Scale Scenes (a british firm) and Clever Models.  Both sell "kits" you download as PDFs and print to heavy cardstock - there's no reason not to use regular paper and then laminate to styrene.  Also, Lance Mindheim's work (here and on his website) should give you a wealth of ideas to work from.  Just don't forget to post pics when you finish!
