MY MIDTERM PROJECT PROCESSB

1ST STEP

• Draw geometric shapes.
• Pick your favorite shapes, then put them together is a geometric mass sketch.

2ND STEP

• Draw a net on Chipboard
• A net is a 3D shape you draw on 2D surfaces, in order to fold it later on.

3RD STEP

• Cut out the net you drew on Chipboard.

4TH STEP

• Fold you net on the lines you scored with your exto-blade.
• The second part to this step is to add tape, so the mass will stay together.

5TH STEP

• Add your individual 3D geometric masses together to create a miniature sculpture.
• A miniature sculpture is also known as a maquette, this can be compared to a rough draft before a final essay.

6TH STEP

• Start your final sculpture by tripling or doubling the measurements you used on the maquette's.
• Then repeat the same processes you used for the maquette.

7TH STEP

• After you have repeated all the steps from making the maquette, you plaster you new 3D shape.

8TH STEP

• For this step you are going to paint your 3D mass.
• To paint the first layer, you are going to add lots of water to your paint.
• You do this in order to get in all the nooks, specially if you have texture.
• The paint you choose should be solid.

THE LAST STEP!!

• Your going to dry brush your mass.
• Make sure you pick a color that is going to make it stand out.
• To dry brush you don't add water, next take a big brush dip it in paint.
• Then rub it on paper till its not a solid stream and lightly go over your sculpture.
• Now your done!!!! (The purple is the dry brush)

A FEW THING TO KEEP IN MIND!

• Craftsmen ship is everything.
• Exto-blade's are shap.
• You can cut your self.
• Precision is important.
• Must of all have fun!!!!
