More Devlopment - sketches


Development Sketches - I did a few more sketch up drawings of how want my model to look. I liked the zig zagging effect so it wont be a plain cube. Ill use wire and thread to keep the model in place. My iteration will be showing in the centre of the squares, going from big to small. Im scared that if i use string it could make my model look messy. I will make up small models of parts of my main model.

Progress for model

So, I have decided how I will be connecting my model together. I will use very thin bendy wire and also black string. My model will be zig zagging which will create an effective shadow when I have to take pictures of it. The puzzle piece in the middle will still be going from big to small. I have made my model in illustrator already and will now wait on the lazer cutting

Rendered Iteration


My 81 iterations: My main iteration is the purple puzzle piece in the middle of the twirl. 

Better view in back and white.

Note: Will upload a screen shot of my iteration on 3Ds Max shortly

Working on illustrator

I am just working on Illustrator, and playing with my puzzle piece. Working out layout and sizing etc.


Final shot on Illustrator. Ready for laser cutting!

Sketches



I am mind mapping ideas that I thought would be effective and interesting. Five small sketches. Working with sizing and the shape. 





Another Precedent Image


I really like the way the boxes are stacked and it has inspired me to do the same with my acrylic model. i also like the reflection given so i want to do something similar with my render. The only thing I will have to work out is how to stick it together  without using glue and tape. I like the use of the shadow and lighting also. It makes a simple image like this look very effective. 

Precedent Images


Image one: I chose this image as one of my precedent images because I liked the stacking idea that this person has used and I wanted to portray this idea into my work as it would look very effective.


Image two: I also chose this image cause I like the way its laid out from big to small and I wanted to have this effect in my work.
