While I Wait...

So far, the Medieval Settlement V2 is on track for being delivered by the beginning of next week. In my spare time I've continued to work on casting methods and reminisced over past artistic creations... that have failed.

May I introduce to you a pottery creation that never came to fruition.



Back when I was in high school art class I had a similar design in my head for one of our clay projects. The problem was that I couldn't make proper progress on the design because there was not enough time.
The solution at the time was to keep damp/wet paper towels on the project to keep it somewhat malleable for the next day. By the next morning the piece would have either dried too much and would crumble when working with it or lose its form from being too damp.
Hind sight reveals that if I were more clever I could have made supports by using a combination of clay and Popsicle sticks or made a frame with wire... but I wasn't as resourceful then, and may not have had access to those anyway.

While waiting for the Medieval Settlement V2 to be made I came to the realization that, "Hey! With this 3D stuff I might be able to make that old project".

So, I have dinked around for several hours to get a rough sketch out in the 3D world which you can now see above.

I'm not 100% sure where I am going with this project. Like in high school, I kind of just feel out some of my pieces as they go. I am satisfied that I have now taken a portion of the original thought and "jotted" it down to keep... we'll see if any further progress is made.
