For this project, Anna and I have chosen to replicate Drogon. Here is a summary of our progress so far:

• Basic analysis of Drogon and consideration of where potential cutlines may reside

• (1st attempt) Cast toy in a yogurt container using spray insulation foam – FAILED ATTEMPT as we did not take into consideration the air-sealed quality of the container and expansion of foam

• (2nd attempt) Cast toy inside original packaging; however to prevent inconsistencies from occurring as a result of foam expansion, we inserted the packaging inside a wooden box and let it sit for 1.5 days.

• After speaking with Andy during class yesterday, we realized that more cutlines are needed given the complexity of Drogon’s form. These cutlines are made as a result of examining the doll and decipher the underlying simple geometries which make up this complex toy.

• Drew cutline marks on box and brought it to the wood shop to cut

• Pieces cut and scanned

• Anna has brought and scaled images in Rhino. We realized that the toy is actually asymmetrical. After speaking with Andy, our next steps are model the toy symmetrically, only to adjust things slightly to make it asymmetrical in order to replicate the toy exactly.
