Our Observation Truck

This post goes out to Chase K, who just got to Shanghai a few days ago to teach Chinese kids to speak English. Since blogspot is blocked by the Great Firewall, he can no longer read these posts.

Got back home from studio around 12:30 am last night, and the studio was still about halfway full. Everyone else's model has crazy curves, angled walls, sails or soaring towers. At this point, our model looks like a bus, and I'm kind of wondering where we went wrong. Our concept of an observatory as a place for meditative and focused looking was pretty simple but perhaps too boring. Or at least the initial concepts we attempted to develop never really went anywhere to our satisfaction and it eventually became an endless game.

At least we don't have to do series of drawings, like the class below ours. They have to draw sections of vegetibles and map the universe. We got to jump right into the more fun stuff of modeling and building. Anyway, back to studio.
