Relief

For my relief, I made a tile and something made of cardboard. The tile had to be human nature, I wasn't sure what to do so, i made a little mushroom. Just a little simple piece, 



















The cardboard was ,my favorite. I made a minecraft sward. I though it was very creative and it could be a little gift for my little sister. 
The sward was definitely more difficult than the tile. I ran into many problems with the sward such as the colors. Because it was cardboard, I couldn't use the right colors that the actual sward really is. I just put colors that were the closest. Another problem i ran into was making the sward stay straight up. I took a couple of Popsicle sticks and hot glued them onto the back to make it stay straight. 




Styrogami

 At first, i had no idea what i was doing, i wanted to cut long pieces out and make them stick out but it looked like a big mess. The second one, i wanted to make kind of a slinky figure and it worked. The third one was probably my favorite. I tried cutting triangles and make them stick out, but the cup broke in two. I flipped it over and but it on top, and it looked really cool. MY last one, i tried too make it into a castle, as you can see with the draw bridge. The main trouble i had with this one was trying to cut it straight and evenly. Also trying to figure out what to do. If i were to do this again, I would try and make the cup a completely different shape and figure.
