Week 6: Group cityscape and design of Sculptris Spirit Animal

For this week's assignment, we were to design a Spirit Animal that would encapsulate our personality and create it in Sculptris, a new program that acts like a ball of clay.

Group cityscape and Spirit Animals

Craft:

Created the headphone beast "Beobeast" in Sculptris. Had way too many polygons the first time around and it crashed the printer. Revamped the clumped up polygons with the inflate and smooth tools and reprinted. Took 36 hours.

Concept:

I live with music as a constant, and I love headphones more than any other technology. The idea of my spirit animal being a pair of headphones with tendrils that reach in and embed in my brain seemed like a really appropriate spirit animal for me.

Composition:

The final print was successful with quite a bit of scaffolding.
