Cranes for Japan

WHen i was looking at these pictures it made me realize how much the earthquake devastated Japan. I noticed how almost everything that there once was, was gone. When i saw the pictures with water covering everything it made me picture the size of the tsunami. The pictures that showed everything lit on fire also caught my eye. Japan may have a lot of work to do to recover, but with everyone helping the disaster it can recover faster.

Getting back to the materials


As I was choosing the materials I thought of which one I could actually form and make 3D. I thought that it would be a good idea to use TinFoil because it was shiny and could make a lot of different shapes. For my hair I split the TinFoil in long strips to show that I have long straight hair. At first to start my project I rolled a bunch of TinFoil into a round shape so I could attach the features to it. After that I glued the hair onto it. Since I knew I didn't have much time to do this I started with characteristics that people recognized me by, My hair. I was not that happy with my finished project but if I had more time I think I could add more detail and make it look more like me.
