Lots of model-building today. I finished my framing model for practise (the final is going to be open-book! And open-notes!), and also did a bunch more work on my final model for design. Our "deliverable" is actually a set of photos of the model, so today I changed my strategy on the advice of one of the teachers and began "building towards the photos": basically, building only what I need to get the photos I need for my final presentation.
I must say that building out of balsa wood lends a finished look to the model that cardboard lacks. Some photos....
The third floor, from a distance. This floor has the bedroom, dressing area, shower, and toilet. The wooden frames will hold up a glass roof and walls, which I have to build.
The bedroom, from eye level. That person is folded to my height, so I can use her to size things. For my final presentation I will use a real photo of myself.
The toilet (contains sink and toilet). The person here is six feet tall, which is close enough to Noel's height that I didn't modify him.
The wee sink I spent too much time making today.
My person walking into the Fibonacci Shower, which doesn't require a curtain because it curves around on itself. See the little bench for your robe? Right out of possible splashing range.
My framing model around the start of studio today.
My finished framing model, sometime around 7pm.
I've got some little shelves I made, plus counters and display shelves for the storefront, but they're just sort of in a jumble and I didn't take photos. I did take photos of all the sketch problem drawings that had gotten a dot as of tonight, but there are tons of them and I don't have the time or energy to post them all now. Maybe tomorrow, if I'm feeling ambitious.
