Project 5: Castle Neuschwanstein Model

For Project 8, we are going to build a fairy tale castle! We will be using the sheet from your kit that has various walls and parapets.

Background

For some information about Neuschwanstein, check out the Wikipedia entry and video below:

The Build

Like the model of Florence Cathedral, this model has some interesting challenges. Pay attention to the new colors indicated on the instruction sheet.

Project 9: Modular Ruined Walls

We are going to follow Black Magic Craft's tutorial and make some interesting walls. I will be providing you with the foam and paint that you need to make these walls. To get familiar, watch the video to see the steps: Instead of using chipboard for the supports, we are going to use scrap cardboard. So, that's your first challenge for today. Look around and see if you can find some scrap cardboard that you can use for this project. Make sure that it's relatively clean (no pizza boxes or things that might be greasy) and not a box that someone is using for something. Carefully cut this scrap into rectangle sizes. 8 inches by 10 inches would be good. Be carful if you are cutting this material. It's easy to loose control of the scissors or knife. Post in the chat your pile of cardboard scrap to prove that you are ready to make some walls!

Inspiration: Book Nooks

I don't know if you have ever heard of these, but I think that book nooks are really cool and an excellent way to do dioramas without devoting a ton of space to them.

2/26 Asynchronous Day

Today we are going to continue working on all the projects listed on Teams and on this website. If you are going to pick up Kit #2 in the bookstore, please make sure that you filled out the permission slip before you go. You can find that form in the Files sections of Teams. Have a great weekend!
