Project 7: Papercraft Objects: First Prototype

Folded

Final


    In my refinement, I will be changing the shapes of the fan sticks to resemble the more traditional Chinese hand fan. I will make the first and last stick wider than the middle ones while also making sure it slowly tapers down. I will also be trying to thin out the fan sticks by folding/gluing a few strips of paper to make the middle sticks so that the overall fan will be thinner and can be held in one hand. Once I have changed the overall shape of the fan, I should be able to cut out and glue the fabric part of the fan together.

      After creating our own unique hollow 3D objects, my partner, Odin, and I went on to try and find a way to hybridize our two separate objects into one new form.

Using my twisted pyramid, we connected it to the base of Odin's poly object in order to give it some support like structures. Instead of closing/capping Odin's object, we instead stuck my twisted tree-like object at the top to make it resemble that of a drill. And in the end, we have this rocket ship-like form as our final hybrid.
