Final Projects

For my first cuts I created a lighthouse trinket! For my layers project I created a map of Maine where my family vacations every year. I used three different wood stains to replicate the different elevations of the coast line right next to the ocean. I am happy with how this came out and am…

Altered Toys Project- Hannah

I ended up printing Minnie mouse and I am so happy with how she came out! She is about 5 inches tall and is the perfect trinket on my desk. I used acrylic paint for the final details.

Sydney – Final Projects

I will start off with the layers project, since that is the first project we did. I was inspired by a lake in the Adirondacks that my family vacations at every year for the past 50 years, Raquette Lake. I used a map from the DEC website and traced the different depths of the lake,…

Altered Toys Project – Amanda Smith

My first print came out super well, but the “Menu” lettering was too small to really make out. I also broke off one of the trunk window bars trying to remove the supports from the inside of the trunk. The little man came out perfectly, I just removed the supports and filed him down a…

Altered Toy Project

For my altered toy, I decided to alter a bouncy ball. I chose a bouncy ball because I have a lot of vivid memories playing with them as a child and I even was nearly blinded by one once (whoops)… I think its pretty interesting how it turned out. when I showed it to my…

LAYERS : Futuristic Barrel Cactus For this project I wanted to create the sort of fake cactus you’d find in a recreational space ship in the future. LANTERN : DND Campaign Vibes My lantern is inspired by the characters in my current DND campaign through Barovia. ALTERED TOYS : Evil Legos I wanted to create…

Altered Toy This piece was created to be a delivery truck for medication. Taking your meds can often seem mundane, but this toy was designed to make it a bit more enjoyable, an experience instead of just a task. The small man pictured is the driver, and the truck has a fully functioning trunk and…

Jules’ Final Projects!

My first two laser cuts are below, one in vector and one in raster! I freehanded both of these with the pen tool. Next is my layers project, I looked up pictures of dolphins as a reference to draw and painted each layer with watered down acrylic to let the wood pattern show through! For…

Sydney – Much overdue Layers Project

I have finally finished my layers project at 5 PM today!! It took me WAYYYYY longer than anticipated because of all the speed bumps I hit in the road. But in the end it has all been worth it! I love how it turned out and the effect is exactly how I pictured it in…

Sydney – Altered Toys Project

Here is my final Altered Toys Project! I had so much fun learning to use the 3D printer, and I can’t wait to model stuff over the summer and print them next year! In the end, I made the Rubik’s cube planter with drainage holes, and a base to go underneath and catch the drained…

Lantern Project (fail/first cuts)

so i have just received the pieces for my lantern project however they were not cut as I had specified. I told the company to cut the “zebra stripes” but for some reason they arrived engraved and the pentagons (for the top and bottom) are the wrong size. I contacted the company and they said…

Leona’s Final Project

Hello there, here are some projects I have made through the course. The Beast I would say this is one of my favorite art pieces so far. At first, I just want to sketch some archeology concepts as I was inspired by Katsuya artist, then I just made him a character out of a sudden….

Layers Project: Instead of having a 3D project, the idea was to use layers to make a painting. This was accomplished using 3 separate layers and traditional Japanese printmaking techniques. Lantern Project: After changing the initial plan for this project,, I decided to make a 3 walled lantern with detailed patterns. It is made out…

Final Projects – Vanshika

LAYERS PROJECT: Design: Originally I wanted to make a design where I could make different constellations and then utilize the layers to add depth. This eventually evolved to include a tiny astronaut’s mask. After test printing the layers, I decided to add planets in the reflection of the space suit. Once the printing was complete,…

Final Projects | Kat Valery

Well the time has come, and all of my pieces are (almost) done. The Projects All Together: Layers Project: I am happy to say the layers project is finished. I ended up using clear Elmer’s glue to piece the project together and finished the accompanying base. As an additional piece, my friend assisted in making…

Layers Project

Here is the results of my layers idea. I think it is kind of nice, thought I am a little dissapointed with the clarity of the material and how you can’t really see what is on the back layers. I think i might try to edit this with paint or something for the final project…

Final Project

I have had a great time taking this course and seeing the amazing creations all of you produced. Hope everyone continues to create! Enjoy this catch-all of my work I made 🙂 LAYERS PROJECT: My idea for this Alice in wonderland layered piece was inspired by the comic art style of Mitch McGee. I was…

Final Projects

Layers Project My concept for this project was to create something nature like using wood. One of the first ideas I had was to create a koi pond scene from above. I loved the idea too much to abandon it so I just had to figure out how to bring it to life from there….

Final Projects: Iris Morin

Layers Project: Layers Map of Penobscot Bay The concept for this project was to make a layered map of the ocean depths around the coat in Maine where I learned to sail. If you can spot “Smith Cove” in the upper-right hand quarter, that is the cove I sail around every summer. And the little…

Final Project – Imogen Barnes

Layers Project For this piece I was inspired by an artist named Hazel Glass, who creates beautiful artwork made of layers of paper. My design was based on a conch shell and then expanded on with patterns and random designs. Creating the layers of this piece was easy, building from the bottom up over a…

FINAL PROJECTS – JAKOB SPERRY

Layers Project – Wooden Drop For this project, I wanted to capture the moment that a water drop hits a body of water. I find this moment very beautiful where it is the intersection from the energy of a single drop spreading and dispersing into a lager body. I am using wood to capture the…
