Snow Cat and Styrene module



The Snow Cat is shown fully made and treads rushed. I am happy about the detachable plow and the window, however time constraint killed my plans to make it a transformable vehicle and even harmed the wheels. Fixing is needed.

The styrene module (tape dispenser looking thing) is in process. Shown is the base pieces and all the pieces together. Much sanding and patchwork is to come.

walle project




i mposting three picks. ! hour into it, 5-10 hours into it and 15 hours into it.
I started by making the cube of walle's body, it is 15x15x15mm. By now i have about 20 hours into him and everything is about made i have just not assembled him yet, i m having troubble because i think i made the wheels and tread too big for the rest of walle, off buy about 2mm ind front to back dimension, but since they have a lot of texture they are a focus point (comparied to the rest of walle bc i hid he edges so the rest looks smooth), making the tread look even bigger, so b4 i put him completely back together i would like to try and minimizes the wheels and tread to make it look more to scale. the rest looks really good and everything works, he has telescoping arms, movable neck, fingers, and maybe movable arms, but idk yet

Final project
























































These are the 4 final experiments I completed for fabrication. The first are the glassblown paperweight done at East Falls Glassworks class. Next are manipulations of PVC pipe bent and cut so that it does not read as PVC at a first glance and multiples were made. Then there were experimentations with steel and welding. I had created a Tim Burton-esq sculpture with the ribs in a falling motion. The last photos are of the final project I made through paper sculpting based off of Peter Callesens works.
