The Island of Artime
By Jack Higgins
In this project, I made a 3D map of the Island of Artime from The Unwanteds series by Lisa McMann. In the Unwanteds series, there are seven Islands, Artime being in the center. Going from west to east, the Islands are: The Island of Legends, The Island of fire, Warbler, the Island of Artime, the Island of Dragons, The Island of Graves, and the Island of Shipwreaks. I chose Artime specifically because it is where most of the series is based.
Artime and Quill
The island of Artime is split into 2 parts - Quill and Artime. They are on the same island, however, they are about as different as possible. Almost all of the Artimeins are Unwanted who were sent to death by Quill at the age of 13.
Every year in Quill, there is a "holiday" called The Purge, where all of the 13 year olds are sorted into three categories: Wanted, Necessary and Unwanted.
My plan for this project was originally much larger, with me trying to make 3D models of all of the islands, but between time and a lack of model magic, I was forced to cut back and just make a 3D map of Artime. On the next slide, there will be a picture of my sketch of Artime. The design has changed quite a bit since then though.
One challenge I had to overcome during this project was the lack of reacources and using them. The model magic did not come in until day three, so that set me back, and then later in the project I had trouble finding paint in the CCI, wich also set me back. Another problem I had with the model magic was molding it. At first, if was very hard to mold the model magic, but eventually I figured it out and was able to start putting it on. However, by that time it was already day 4.
Time chart: I have a very big project idea, so I am going to have to use my remaining time wisely. I am already a little bit behind because the Model Magic took a long time to arrive. I am going to do more of Artime than Quill, because there just isn't that much in Quill.
Day 6: Artime
Day 7: Artime
Day 8: Artime/Quill
Day 9: Quill

Day 1:
Day 2:
Day 3-4
I also made a board and sketched out there the model magic and structures will be.
Day 5
On day 7, I do not have a picture, because for some reason the picture got deleted from my computer, but on this day I finished model magic and painted Artime. On this day, I had 2 periods to work, so I got a lot done.
Day 8
On day 8, I painted the ocean. In this picture, the ocean is not finished, but by the end of class, it was done. I also painted part of Quill.
Thank You!!!!!!!
