We arrived at the idea of splitting our team into two smaller teams. Each team created a prototype based on our internet search of 3D elephant models. sara_mackay https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178517802 2017-07-11 23:54:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178517802 sara_mackay https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178517893 It took under 1 hour to create 2 prototypes.]]> 2017-07-11 23:57:55 UTC https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178517893 sara_mackay https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178518226 Scaling to size... an 8 foot elephant…]]> 2017-07-12 00:07:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178518226 We were very pleased with our prototypes and combined the best ideas from both of our prototypes to plan for our life size build. sara_mackay https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178518372 2017-07-12 00:11:13 UTC https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178518372 sara_mackay https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178518525 2017-07-12 00:15:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178518525 Time to build! sara_mackay https://padlet.com/sara_mackay/x07u8tj9wihd/wish/178518736 Our two teams were so effective in the prototyping process that the teams stayed the same and began the build of the legs and the body.
