Monday: worked on ring Tuesday: work on blog post Wednesday: fixed ring worked on post Thursday: working on rings and sizing different ones friday: finished possssssttttttttttt yayyyyy! Marking period 1  The ring:  the ring is my most recent project this ties in to my focus of fantasy because i find a lot of rings in fantasy   this  was probably  made popular  from the lord of the rings serious i fist want to practice  making sizes of them then ill stretch  a plane to allow to engrave on them. i learned from my first print of this project that i need to watch seizing  more because even though i entered the right amount i think it may have been in centimeters on accident. this will hopefully  be a success  next marking period. The Nordic alphabet:  This project was done for convince i like Nordic runes and symbols a lot so when creating they tend too pop into my head a lot so i thought if i made them then when i wan...

Fangs

Day 1: worked on original degin of fang and struggled also finished alphabet Day 2 looked at reference photos for fang finished fang started chain Day 3 worked on chain and tried to print it Day 4 worked on printing chain more Day 5 printing didn't work to small needs to be thicker This week I first worked on finishing the alphabet and that took like 5 minits then I looked at fangs I found that trying to make one from memory hard and when I looked at snake fangs online they didn't help either I ended up looking at a bunch of different fangs till I got a basic desgin of of them I took a cylender and shaped it to a fang shape after trying for awhile with a circal and beziee curve I found the cylender easier then the beziee curve with the circal . I then tried to model and print a chain modeling went well but I found when I printed it it's a good size but the individual pieces need to be thicker in order to actually support and not break right away. On Friday I manage to ...

the nordic alphabet

Image
monday: printed die Tuesday: collected back round image and started to work on Nordic alphabet A-e started recording Wednesday: helped shrink wrap then got  through I and some additional second recording Thursday: almost done only 2 or 3 more  the chart to the left is what I used for the model's templates this project will slowly become bigger. In addition to this, it also explatoins the meaning of each symbol by knowing this I can form old spells or what they would believe would engrave magic energy the final product I will be working toward will be bracelet beads with engraved runes for protection as well as some dice engraved with these runes and many other things. So by already having them created, I can benefit and maintain focus on my models the engraving of them will be simpiler because the models for cutting will already be done. My inspirations for this project were the runes from Skyrim and other fantasy games al...

The dice

Monday: got the body shape of dice down Tusday: learned how to knife project Wensday: engraved 20 through 18 Thursday: 17 through 9 Friday: 8 through 1 and prepared to get it to print Idea: the idea behind this project comes from my hobby of playing D and D as well as magic the gathering both magically and fantsy games that require 20 sided dice these games I've loved since 6th grade and I thought it'd be nice to be Abel to print my own 20 sided dice instead of by them Inspiration: my inspiration for this piece was a normal 20 sided spindown die witch unlike a regular 20 sided die counts down with the 19 next to the 20 then 18 next to 19 and so on. As mentioned in my previous paragraph I drew inspiration fromagic the gathering dice magic the gathering is a trading card game created by wizards of the coast. Another insperation is a normal 20 sided die witch is commonly acoticed with the popular table top rpg ( role playing game) Dungeons and Dragons also known as D ...

Monday grabbed reference image Tuseday started to craft and model bow Wensday scraped bow to low poly Thursday learned beveling invintly extruds Friday started to finish modeling bow Creative meditation Lately I've picked up meditating to clear my mind and help me be more creative with my ideas this helps me think clearly on what I want to make how I want to make it and how I want it to look when i am done I use music that is supposed to relax the mind and help explore the imagination. While listening to this music I lay down in a courps potion and clear my mind try and relax and focus all my energy on my creation. This mediation really helps with a lot of different things and I would highly suggest it to anyone who struggels to try and connect with the imagination. It's also suggested to use stones to recharge energies and chakras in your body that help improve imagination as well as your mental stability. These stones are usely of a lavender color such as spirit qaurzt ...
