Topography Model

I finally got around to posting the pictures of my finished topography model. I am really proud of the end result. I can't even count how many hours this took me. I am guessing 50-100...maybe? Who knows. There was a lot of cutting and gluing involved. It started out as a model of the Mariana Trench, but its more of a topography tribute to the Mariana Trench. It was also used in the performance of Decline of Ballooning. Here are more pictures on my flickr.

Topography

Hello! Happy New Years! My informal resolutions are to keep this blog updated regularly, and to do more work. Recently, I have been working hard on a topography project using felt. This is something I have wanted to do for a long time. The project is a "model" of the topography of Mariana Trench, which is the deepest part of the ocean located in the Pacific near Japan and the Philippines. Although the topography is coming mostly from my imagination, is will be used to represent the Mariana Trench in an upcoming play. I have a lot more work to do on it, but here is what it looks like so far:
