Luminary Assignment – Final project

Luminary Assignment – Reading day

During reading day, I print out my second luminary design and put it together using wood glue. I made sure to sand it down enough and to stick the backing paper on precisely so no edges would come out.

Luminary Assignment – Classwork 25/05/23

During class today, I continued with my Fusion model of my second luminary and successfully made a mechanical-looking flower in Fusion which went with my industrial mechanic theme. I made some slight adjustments to make each of the pieces flow a little and have continuation of line throughout the pieces.

Luminary Assignment – Homework due 25/05/23

For homework, I continued making the designs for my “mechanical flower” themed luminary. I used the dimension tool to make sure all the bridge structures were equally spaced apart in terms of thickness so that it would keep a uniform look, fitting the mechanical theme. However, I also made care to vary up line thickness in other areas so that the design would have a wide variety of interesting things to focus on.

Luminary Assignment – Classwork 24/05/23

During class, I finished gluing all the parts together using wood glue. I made sure to glue all the sides together and then used elastics to keep everything together while it dries. I also made the bottom of the candle holder in Fusion to be 3D printed out later.

Luminary Assignment – Homework due 24/05/23

For homework, I got to work putting my drawn-out designs onto Fusion. I first drew out the outlines of all the luminary faces, then made sure that each of the outside edges was 0.5in away from the designs and used the offset tool to draw guidelines to help me keep the designs inside the edge.

Luminary Assignment – Classwork 22/05/23

During class today I worked on gluing together my first luminary with the colored paper at the back. I used tape to hold the paper and the luminary in place while I glued it. I then left it on a tabletop to dry and continued with the final designs for my second luminary.

Luminary Assignment – Homework Due 22/05/23

For homework, I finally figured out a design for my second luminary model. I took care to incorporate similar traits from my first luminary model so that they would be a flower-themed set of luminaries.

Luminary Assignment – Classwork 18/05/23

During class today, I painted the second layer of my luminary colored paper using watercolor to make sure that there would be more pigment on the paper thus allowing the light which shines through to be more colored. I also printed out my luminary successfully and sanded it down.

Luminary Assignment – Homework Due 18/05/23

For homework, I did some research on possible luminary centrepieces which i could centre my luminary around. I drew out more sketches for my second luminary.

Luminary Assignment – Classwork 17/05/23

During Class, I started painting my paper which I would later stick onto the luminary to make the light coming out colored, I borrowed water and watercolor from the painting class and used the wave technique to apply as much pigment as I could onto the paper, whilst still making sure the colors blended into each other.

Luminary Assignment – Homework due 17/05/23

For homework, I continued drawing sketch designs for my second luminary. I experimented with multiple styles and mediums, but was unable to find a good base on which to continue.

Luminary Assignment – Classwork 27/04/23

During class I made some edits to the fusion model so that all of the separate sketch parts were connected and able to be extruded.

Luminary Assignment – Classwork 26/04/23

During class, I designed the second face of my luminary. I went for a simpler design of a flower so that when it projects onto the walls, it would be more balanced. I plan to keep with the mystical theme however, and add in some butterflies and a fairy to make it more aesthetic

Luminary Assignment – Classwork 20/04/23

During class, I got started on making a Luminary instead as the 3D printer couldn’t print out my desktop organiser design. I asked my person what kind of Luminary she would like, and she replied something mythical. So I decided to go with a dragon design on one face, and planned to decorate the other faces with stars, butterflies and other mythical creatures. During class I made the sketch for the dragon face.
