Design 2

We Toa foundation students are given a project to create a scuptur (dont know how to spell) that is around 6 foot tall...(which i am obviously not 6 foot tall)...
So we separate ourselves in groups of four...
Irene(GL), Jane, Cindy and of course me...
Sleepless nights and eye bags...we created...(see below about our process and outcome~)

Our paper cutting for the design...

These are the flower snowflakes....
We need around 60 small petals to make a ball...

Steel ball....hand made! and more scars on my legs!
(btw...ignore Shirayuki...)



Flower snowflakes form out "hope"
NOT EASY!

Side view


Setting up...

Final touch up...

Wala! final outcome!



Inside the ball is the word "hope"..



Match box

Side decor~Rudolph!





It is really big and really hard to set it up...
took us long long time to finish this...
Big eh?!

And of course had some fun~


The design with all lights off!


Nice lights and i got shock for 2 times? 3 times? while fixing the lights...
Painful and numb!!!


Can you see the "hope"?


After all the hardship and sleepless nights...
I treat myself something nice and lots of lots of sleep!!!!
*Pat myself* you did well kimmie....
*pat irene ,jane and cindy*

Although it is tiring...but hey..this may be a once in a life time experience...the most important thing is the process that we've been together and what we learn from it.... The result is not important...because we know that we tried our very best!!!

Dweey~!!!Toy no fun!!!!

Bet everyone loves toys....i do i do!!!toys are my favourite!
Went to toy no fun today!woke up late but luckily i made it...
from 10 am to 12 something there was a talk about how designer toys are made....
trust me....it's not easy at all....but then i love designer toys a lot!they are very special...
well...the speaker said designer toys are expensive....people will just kill you for buying a plastic which cost a lot!
but then by looking at their hard work....it is worth it...
 The speaker (designer) and one of the designers giving us a talk.
 The guy in the green cap is really good in doodling! he said he can buy a normal cap,doodle it and sell for hundreds!



Er...this is something i doodled in my scketch book for fun....while listening to the talk of course.

Around 2 pm our workshop started. we all bought a designer's toy called dweey!!
it is white...so we all have to doodle or draw on it with our own style and design!
below is something i had done...it is not that good but i am happy with my work...
it's my first time!

The packaging....it is very nice!!!

Another side of the packaging...

My gave my Dweey a heart!!!! It has feelings~

 The ''DWEEY" word....


 See the butt?? The ear phone is plug in the......**un humm** u know what am i talking...can you see the on off switch??


When i finish drawing...we have to spray something on our work so that the paint will not go off....
but you know what....the spray doesnt work on marker....which i am using it to draw....and when you ''gepo gepo'' go spray....your work turns out like THIS!!!!!

 The nose!!!! It melts!!!!!!!!!!!!

But honestly....the effect is not bad on my design... It actually works...It does give out another kind of feeling~ a little more street like...really...it is not bad right?haha...

The pink one is my friend Cheng Tong's...both of us gave out very different feelings..as you can see our personalities difference....haha....

Honestly...we are all tired....but it is really fun!!! I will be doodling more!! today is really worth it!!!
MORE TOYS PLEASE!!!!
LOVE TOYS!!!
