Photos of constructed Physical Model





Basically I'm very happy with how the laser cutting went, although I have to make changes, such as taking out the really small thin tower, since the scale of the model make that tower redundant in terms of quality, when I was making this model I also understood the physics and proportion of the digital model really well, I actually used to experience and refer it back to my model to make changes.
In terms of quality of the model, the Acrylic glue was really difficult to control and it did made some mess around the edges. As for the void space model, the quality turned out to be excellent, although some of the pieces broke during laser cutting, since the heat of the laser kind of melted the acrylic a little and deformed the edges, causing it to break my I had to take the pieces out.

As for the aesthetic of the model, I liked how my physical model are very similar to my digital renders, this was one of my major concerns from the start, to create a physical model that is very easy to relate back to my digital model.
