Building a Galaxy


 

Our Model 

 

 

Description : 

In the far left at the tip is Sun (due to its immense gravity all other minor heavenly bodies get drawn towards it ). Model represents Mercury and Earth, Moon , Jupiter and to to show the far off region like Kuiper belt Pluto (our favorite Dwarf planet) is shown.

Here is the labeled photo of that .




How it was made ?
 Lets start from the beginning .
Choosing the design.
After going through a lot of designs we decided to go with the Tornado art. The overall shape give a feel of the intricate movement of the large heavenly bodies which we perceive as stationary objects .



The shape and our design , incorporated a flat back so that the piece can be mounted flush against a wall.

 The design were made on 3D-Maya then imported to Pepakura.
 3D Model sliced into pieces using Pepakura and then laid out.

Once the model has been laid out in Pepakura, the file needs to be exported in two separate
formats to translate to illustrator.  Once is for the object layer and the other is for the text.
layer.  This is the exported file for the object layer.

 Here are some pics to show work in progress.








 After Stitching(with .125 and .25 inch white tape ) up everything together .


Then after that a little bit of wiring  





We are done !
