Watch Rendering on Sketchbook Pro

Sketchbook Pro and Cintiq

I started out by sketching on marker paper using markers, color pencils, and pastels

Then I scanned it onto the computer and started rendering.

Bottle Design

For this assignment, we used vacuum forming to create a bottle.

First, I got two blocks of balsa wood and clamped it together over night with wood glue.

Then I used a lathe to create that bottle shape.

After an hour, this is what've I got.

Then I got a sheet of PETG and vacuum formed it. 

                  

Then, I stated on designing on how my bottle will look like.

I cut the excess plastics off and sanded the edges. I then glued the two pieces together using acrylic solvent. I then pour black paint into the bottle and shook it to perserve the glossy feel on the outside.

Roto Molded Stool

This Project was to create a furniture out of rotational molding. I decided on making a stool :)

However, the assignment is to create it so that it looks like it's roto molded, but can be made out of any material.

As usual, I used my favorite material styrene. Then I filled it with foam filler and blue foam so that the stool can be dense enough to sit on.

After creating two stools, I painted them in pastel pink and sky blue and bought back drops that match with them. 

I used my friends to model for me. I also used a Canon XSI with a 24-105mm lens.
Special thanks to Susan and Daewon for helping me!

Alarm Clock 2

After the 1st alarm clock. The next assignment was to improve our clock design based on the reviews from our peers.

Processes

As usual, I used styrene to shape my pieces.

Then I painted the individual pieces.

Alarm Clock

For my 1st major project at Pratt was to create an alarm clock. I am still organizing and editing my stuff, so I will re-update later for more pictures and information.

I first started out my sketching some models out of thin plexiglass and then taping the boarders around it to create the frame.


I later printed out images on acetate to create a clear screen.

I started making my project out of styrene sheets. I laser cut them so the measurements came out correctly. I used Tenex to glue the parts together and then sand the surface lightly so I can prime it.

This is the result after priming.

After the prime, I cut thick clear acrylic sheets to create the glass of my alarm clock. I used the bandsaw and the sander to adjust the fit.

I then labeled all the glass and the sides with numbers so that I won't misfit them later on.

After the glass fitting. I used water based spray paint to paint my clock in rose gold.
Another fitting after the paint.

For the buttons, I used an old paint bottle and painted it pearl white.

I will update my other final pictures later :)
