The thesis of my project is to make a diorama that represents the story and town. This diorama will incorporate ideas from my book making you feel the stuff happening in the book while you look at the town diorama project.
Conceptual precedent
This is a frog out of clay which I am going to make one like in my diorama. Mine will not be as detailed but it will have some of the details included in this clay frog.
Technical precedent
My technical precedent was this mini medieval town which gave me the idea to do a diorama town.
Initial sketch
This is my initial sketch. It shows the diorama laser cut back as well as the clay frog and the 3d printed trees and houses.
Frog 1st iteration
At first, I was going to make a 3d printed frog, put it in a mold, but rubber in the mold and have a rubber frog where I would stick the LED inside it but the print failed so I decided to make one out of model magic instead.
Frog 2nd iteration
This is the 2nd iteration of the frog. It is made out of model magic and as you can see, I will put a candle inside it to make it glow through the mouth because in the book the frog eats the moon.
Frog 3rd iteration
this is my final frog
Diorama base 1st iteration
This is the 1st iteration of my diorama base. It is a laser cut box with an open front which I am going to put the other stuff in.
Final diorama (not final picture)
This is my final diorama. However, it is not my final cci picture.
I made my sketch and planned my laser cut diorama plan
Day 2: I am cutting my diorama base. I am also going to find images for the background. Then, I will start designing the 3d printed characters and buildings.
Day 3:
I am making a frog 3d print. Then I will put a mold on it. Finally I will use rubber and stick an led inside it to glow.
Day 4:
I am making a clay frog. This is going to be instead of the 3d print. This is because the 3d print failed
Day 5:
I missed school today . So, I could not work on my fessy con project. I still worked on my mid review though.
Day 6:
I worked more on the frog today. I also got some small trees. Tomorrow I will finish the frog and start the house.
Day 7:
Today I got a lot of work done. I finished my mid paragraph. I also finsihed painting my frog.
Day 8:
Today I found out that someone had taken part of my box. Because of this, I had to change the way I built it. The reason I did not just make a new one is because it is too big.
Day 9:
Today I worked on my diorama parts. I finished my frog and I put it on the diorama. I also finished putting my trees and house on to the diorama.
Day 10
Today I put the finishing touches on my project. I still need to take my final photo though. I also need to finish my final presentation
