Faberge Egg's

Hey guys. The Faberge Egg project has ended finally after 5 weeks of hard work by everyone. We had a quick dash round everyones desk after you all left on friday and took some shots and on first glance there are some really cool eggs there.We're going to save highlighting the cool ones until term restarts so we can really leaf through everyones design work and references.

Regardless, we think what John said at the end of friday was really important. For those of you who think they havent learned much over this project just take a look at the skills acquired on it. Moulding in silicone, casting in resin, vac-forming over chemi-wood plugs, intricate paintwork, sculpting in clay, sculpey and other materials as well as turning reference materials into designs and onto physical pieces. We're sure we missed some skills and many people tried completely new things. Its very easy to overlook this sort of skills acquisition but we'd bet that most of you wouldn't have had a clue about this sort of thing when you first arrived!

Anyway, with it all over, heres the slideshow of everyones work (well, at least the ones who had theirs out on deadline!)




Thanks and Merry Christmas
