It's been especially annoying for my 3D Design class because it's only on Fridays, so I have missed the past 8 hours of class and was soooo far behind. Or so I thought.
I go into class yesterday and find out that last week apparently only 4 people showed up for class, and two people were still working on the first project that I thought was finished 3 weeks ago. Guess I'm not so far behind.
The professor for 3D design is really nice, and really laid back. And I think that's part of the problem. There's no real due dates or class structure. The class is supposed to run from 9am-12:40pm. But people just come in at random times and leave whenever they feel like it. I feel like I'm in one of those high schools where you sit on bean bags outside and the teachers are former hippies who still smoke weed.
So, due to this structureless class and people not doing their work, turns out I was able to catch up and actually get ahead of most people in one class. Heck yes.
The newest project is basically just creating a mold or form out of foam board that contains 3 separate parts and not using right angles. Kind of the opposite of our previous 17-sided figure using only right angles. So I got this idea to do one of my favorite craft projects, making a rose.
I used this little DIY Instruction webpage, and created the spiral on the foam board. Then I had to kind of break up the foam in the board so I could spin it all together. And it worked! And turned out really well! I had to use hot glue in order to keep it together without unravelling.
I made three roses, and then hot glued them to wire rods. I had the choice between the wire rods and wooden sticks, but the wire moves better and makes it more visually dynamic.
Whoa. Visually dynamic? Guess the art-minor in me is really coming out.
