Hello Prof do we need to bring our curvilinear models in tommorow I have the sketches and photos
Since there are two folders on dropbox, in which one do I submit the PDF of the model and the PDF of the rhino renderings?
The Rhino PDF will go in the ARCH 1291 Visual Studies folder and the drawings and model in the Arch1210 Foundation Folder
Greetings Professor Valdez,
Quick question, On the template where it says “Design concept and a number” what do I exactly need to put there? Is the number the number page?
Good question. You need to put the project number for example P01. For the design concept the name of the project is good.
I hope this helps.
Professor how many pictures do we print out in one paper? Can we print out 2 per page?
One per page. One Grouping for page
professor,
how many printed pictures do we have to print out for each model?
You mean for each grouping? At least 2 photos for each group.
Prof. What drawing should be done vertically again( portrait orientation )
The exploded isometric
Prof,
I’m a little confused about how are we going to make the site plan, perspective and elevation…
Do we take pictures of it and print it out on 11×17 and just trace it?
We have to print out the pictures 11 by 17 and trace with pencil. Then you use the different micropens light weigths to finish it off.
Yes correct!
yes correct!
Professor,
For the site plan, do we have to include the people as well and for the contour lines on the site. Do we have to do them in different line weights or just one in a fine piont?
Professor I am not going to be able to make it to class. Here in Yonkers the snow is bad and if you check news 12 everything here is closed already and all the students got dismissed. Can someone please just send me what’s the homework for the next class?
Thank you
Everybody is in class. You need to finish your site. You missed the model making techniques tutorial. You need to carve your models into your site.
my site is ready i just have to clue them. When the final models due?
Do not glue the contours.
First work carving the cubes on the site. Make sure that you carve the pieces properly to work together with the site. Make sure that your composition is balanced. After you have finished carving, then glue the chipboard pieces to the foam boards individually without gluing the layers together. I need to see the final carving before everything is glue in one piece. For Thursday bring everything in order to take the final decision and glue. (Remember to bring the FINAL well crafted pieces to class.
Do not forget to bring your rhino files.
Prof is it ok if our final models are slightly over 3″?
Yes it is OK. no problem.
Do we still have school tomorrow??
The answer is yes we do. You can also go to City Tech Site to find out.
Hey
Do we use a different material for the hybrid?
Not really. You can use basswood.
oh ok, can we use museum board?
No you can not.
are we making a study model for the hybrid or we making the final model for it?
no is the study model
Correct Thank you
Thanks
