Griffin Korns & Michael Creamer: Week 16 Pepakura




Concept:
The design is a low poly model of a hammerhead shark, the intent behind creating it being to replicate an organic and fluid form with straight edges. It was also intended to be able to stand on its own, similar to a tripod.


Technique:
The shark was originally modeled in Maya, then brought into Pepakura to be tweaked until it was foldable. It was brought back into Maya to be split up and modified several times to fix any issues with folding.




Materials:
The shark was made of eflute cardboard, then folded and stuck together with tape and various glues. It was sprayed with textured spraypaint to make the surface more dynamic and visually interesting, as well as to add depth.
