9 ART 2018

9 ART 2018

this post is about my best art for year 9 2018, I have three photos but I will only explain two of my arts and why they are the best and second best.

This here is the best one because it has the best shading, and has really helped my skills improve on my art work. Also the different shapes helped with my 3D shapes.

This is my second best art work because it is well I don't know but this is 2D and is a maori fish hook necklaces, and it also has some maori designs on it to make it more artistic.

This here is my third best but I'm not going to explain this one I just wonted this on here to full some space up.

Term 2 Mars Lander

Term 2 Robotics Mars Lander

This here is my design so far.

Design process

For the design process we brainstormed ideas to see what one is more realistic, and to change it if we had to. Also we started to look at what different materials could be used for, like a cup could be a good catch for the sphero. Or putting a cup on top of it, we didn’t tern the sphero on but we did a friction test on the ground. The thing I am wondering about the suspension on the model, and what would be used as the suspension. Some ideas I have for the suspension is using pipe cleaners put into a spring shape, then putting the wheels at the bottom somehow. For the turning system I have no idea what to do, because the sphero is what will be used but how will the wheels tern. Also we will need to control the size of our mars lander, because it could become too heavy for the sphero.

Mars terrain

the terrain can be very steep, rough and ridged so if I were to make a mars lander, I would need something to withstand the terrain. Now it would be easy to fix just by adding suspension but we also need to consider gravity, because if we hit a bump we could go flying. So to fix that we need weight which should hopefully fix that.

Hypothesis

Our Mars Lander has this shape because it will keep the weight in the same place will keep it close to the ground. Also our Robot will navigate the terrain with these features because we need to communicate and transmit the photos/information back to earth.

Art Class Term 2

Art Class Term 2

This is about my art in art class for this term (term 2)
This one here is my road safety bot. This was made to show one of he school wide expectations, this one is safety. This is because the robot is waiting for the car to leave so it can cross the road. 

This is not about any thing so I is just peace of art that I made but I think that it is pretty cool. It's a tree on a hill with a little pond next to it. The stem and the branches are large but you can see little lines those are like branches but there just there to make the tree look bigger than it is.
