For this assignment I chose to make a seated figure without a torso where the upper half of the body would be held up by the arms resting on the knees. I decided to make the slices diagonal to the ground which started at the top of her head. Shane already printed my piece before…

Assignment 2: Flat-Fold
For my flat-fold assignment I found a 3D scan of a crab. For very large files like the crab, I found it helpful to bring the object into Meshmixer first and reduce the vertices by a lot. Usually even around ~80% less kept most of the details. Otherwise Slicer would just freeze or crash on…
Assignment 1: Interior Anatomy 3D Print
For my 3D print, I found a house I split into two halves and the inside reveals a little alien fetus. When trying to come up with an idea, I thought of the different ways I could show the inside of an object while keeping it printable and readable as the interior of the object….
Stacked slice _ Cecilia
This is actually my favorite project I done on Art 350. Literary because of my boyfriend mistake it with a pig instead of a unicorn of how chubby this unicorn is. This is so far on of the easiest project I had done too. It’s not so hard to chose the 3D model since I…
Laser engraving- Cecilia
This is my laser engraving I did for the 5th assignment. I am really happy with how it turn out. The only thing that surprise me was the size of the wood. I didn’t know it going to be that small and thin, even though I already saw the dimension but I am not good…

Jason Jimenez Raster Engraving
For this project I decided to draw my own image for the laser engraving in photoshop using my own drawing tablet. I wanted to draw a environment piece because the burning of the image onto the wood was something that I found fitting with the materials used. I made the trees look almost mushroom-y in…
Jason Jimenez, Interlocked
This interlocked art piece also takes into account something that I have used in my childhood. The little alien is from a videogame medium and I decided that I would like to make the little alien a sort of statue. Although not taking into account how large the final constructed figure would be. The size…
Assignment 4: A home divided – Daniel Barrera
This piece hits close to “home”, the story behind it is where I come from, I technically have two homes: the one here in Chicago and the one in Mexico (where my parents came from). When I went to Mexico, me and my family there talked about how one day they would come to America…
Assignment 3 – Cecilia Nguyen
This is properly one of the hardest projects I had ever done so far in this class. The first step is finding the model since it’s easier to assemble if there is less peace so that is why I have to spend hours to days to find the perfect model. I don’t want it to…
