Model submission

Msg from Ms Kwok: All students to take note and follow accordingly.

On 3rd November all students must submit (i.e. show to the receiving tutor) their presentation model with AT LEAST the building (floor, wall, roof) done. They should then take the model back home to complete the details, landscape, touching up, etc.

They are to bring the FULLY FINISHED MODEL along with their presntation drawings on 22 Nov to pin up and display.

Msg from Ian to Ian's group: Guys do a good model! I know most of you are drawing presentation drawings for a medium sized building for the first time in your whole short life, so it may be a try-out, in the best sense. Your model, though, will in one Zzzap! tell your whole story like no drawing can!

Use as few different materials as possible--go for space and volume and form and DON'T try to make a miniature doll house with "real" things. (Kenneth, clear perspex is better than green perspex.) Soft, "greyed down" colours are better than bright primary colours. Remember the colour of the site base, and blend in.

I'm still here till 28th Oct; and maybe, just maybe, I can go to a cybercafe in Beijing after that. Unless it's so cold my fingers freeze up!

ALL of you have plans that work--so go for it!

Shiao Yin, your revolution looked ok. Just use your roof to group together some of your blocks, join them with links and you should pull through. Not too many different roofs, just a few, all speaking the same language. And don't forget nice covered walkways and terraces.

Jufri, simple forms please! Don't make your life too complicated. (The fewer different types of forms the better. One form is sometimes the best, though not always.)

Gerald, you have to make the best model in your life! And finish all the drawings, too.

Others whose names I didn't mention should be chugging happily along.
