Trans Design Studio 1 - Final Project (more images to come soon...)

The final project for our Freshman Trans Design Studio 1 class was to design and build a model of a tracked vehicle. Our assignment was a Sno-Cat. 

The brief required that we only use paper and/or foam core board, which basically ruled out the possibility of our vehicle having any compound surfaces (a surface that bends in more than one direction). So we were limited to a design that would look more or less boxy. I tried to see how far I can push the design despite the limitations of not using compound surfaces.

Vis Comm Final Project - Hovercraft

Hovercraft 1

The final project for Vis Com 1 was to do a hovercraft rendering. This was done with marker, chalk, and pencil on marker paper.

Hovercraft 2

I wasn't satisfied with my first hovercraft rendering so I decided to do another one during class. I rendered this on Canson paper instead of marker paper. I did this very quick and hasty but I think it came out much better.
