Final Projects

My layers project is a topological map of my section of my home town of Woodstock Connecticut. I used different depths/powers of raster engraving to create the different layers with the different physical heights but also the different shades of burnt effects on the wood. I also vector engraved most of the roads and vector…

Lantern Project

As described in my Lantern Design post my lantern is a cardboard box that I cut using the smaller laser cutter and finger joints. I then glued some purple paper to the inside of the panel containing the design cutout so that the light would have a purple glow because the light I used to…

Altered Toys Design

For my altered toy I plan to print figurines. Me and my sister used to play with small characters a lot when we were much younger, I hardly remember it now but I figured I could cross that memory with something I enjoy now which will once again be Destiny 2. I managed to extract…

3D Doodle Geometric

I made this as a pedestal on which to place printed characters from Destiny 2, the pedestal label is the type of enemy, its allegiance and its class.

Lantern Design Plan

My plan for my lantern is to use cardboard to make a short box with one of the sides missing. That opening will allow me to slide my phone into the box and use its adjustable flashlight as a light source. The top face of the box will host the design which I traced in…

Layers Progress

The current iteration of my project is a topology map of a section of Woodstock Connecticut. I used different strength rasters to give a sense of depth and different shades for different elevations. I also vector engraved minor roads and vector cut major roads and some bodies of water. My plan going forward is to…

Layers concept and inspiration

I was inspired by the topographical map of Cape Cod and decided to make a similar version of a map of my home town of Woodstock Connecticut. For Placement of Holes and Openings, I intend to use holes to mark specific significant locations on the map. For Varied Repetition of Form, the contour lines of…

Drawings 2 and 3

My second drawing was of an object from the game Destiny 2. It is meant to be a hollow sphere of computers and mechanisms coated in a layer of rock. They can be found on one of the playable destinations in the game and show their age through missing sections of the rock shell and…

Drawing #1

The concept for my first Inkscape drawing was a ghost from a game called Destiny 2 that I play heavily. The ghosts are, in a sense, small living machines that accompany and advise the player throughout the course of the game. They are your constant companion and close friend and I enjoy that concept.
