I gave up my weekend nights to finish the section model of my building. For everyone who isn't an architecture student, a section model or drawing is a slice of a building. You can see all of the support structure like beams and joists and wooden studs and stuff. My professors wanted section models made of basswood for our presentation Wednesday. So, I powered through and delivered.
I finished at like 5:15 last night (morning?!) and wanted to go to bed, so I only have one photo of the finished thing. But here's photos during the whole process!
Those tiny joists I was talking about.
PILES of them. And they all turned out to be too big.
First floor joists in! This is a gym space.
Gym ceiling in!
A nice little cut-away to reveal the structure of the building.
The classrooms on the second floor.
Glass walls with wood doors! I thought it would be a good kind of different.
Those damn joists again.
Very beautifully arrayed.
The front

And the wooden siding on the building.
This is only a slice of my building, the actual design has three buildings in it, but there's no way in poo I'm modeling all of that.
WOW. That's so cool! It also looks like a TON of work. Jeez! Must feel good to have it done though, huh? :) maybe you'll have crafty time over the break!
