Papercraft: First Prototype


I was able to make my vinyl record quite well. The only piece I changed from my original plan was how I made the "case." I originally had it as two pieces, but the front just didn't work out well (as you can see), so I'm going to update the design by adding a separate front piece that has the specific opening that I want, it will be a flat piece that I can just glue onto the front.

Vinyl

 

Revised and detailed case

I re-made the vinyl case and added all of the details I had planned, I do plan to add more details to both the vinyl itself and its case but that will be for the laser cutter.

Papercraft: Research

Image
Zim and Zou, also known as Lucie Thomas and Thibault Zimmerman, are two people who've created these detailed and eye catching window installations. I looked at most of the articles but really liked this one called "Forest Folk", specifically because of all the little villagers I was able to find another article (https://zimandzou.fr/forest-folks) that introduces these installations by explaining that we are given a sneak peak into this tiny little world. Giving readers a brief narrative of what's going on: "In this project, spectators have a sneak peak of curious characters living inside this environment. This microscopic point of view, where plants and other vegetal reign as masters, is like a kind of picture, a flash, a precise instant in nature's unrestrained run. Life is everywhere, flowers are growing and carry away it's inhabitants in their impetus. These mysterious people are evolving, building, and living right in the heart of nature, revealing a

Papercraft: Digital Samples

Image
For my first sample I decided to make the Ariana Grande perfume bottle that my partner got me for Christmas. It's this super cute cloud shape holder with the round perfume bottle sitting inside. I use it all the time and it smells amazing.  The only thing I didn't know how to get rid of, to make the digital sample look better, was the cut off shapes on the front of the cloud, which I'll have to figure out how to do that before I start the final project (If I choose to make this.) Other than that, I think this one is really cool!   I've made my second sample I made a record with it's case, inspired by the record I have in my room on my desk, it literally staring me in the face since it sits on the desk I work on. I also started of thinking of important or just interesting objects that I have In my life, so I started thinking about how my dad has boxes and boxes full of these antique records that I believe were from my grandpa, and now we have them in our garage, my b

Mesh Mashup (Concept Generation)

Image
 I have begun my Mesh Mashup objects 1. Portal  Starting with a combination of these three objects found on Thingiverse.  portal by yehonathanbarda - Thingiverse Portal Man Remix - Magnet by Joe-OSU- - Thingiverse Making Music by mom0sarah - Thingiverse I've made a stair case of figures running into this portal. I first got the idea when I seen the musical instrument and had the thought that it looked like a stair case. I also thought that since the instrument is limited and only goes so far, I wanted to make the end more interesting, so I added the portal like circle. And because of these specific human figures I used, I was able to take only half of one of them and make it look like one of them was halfway through the portal. 2.
