Ok, so the latest project we're on is Architectural Representation. At its basic form its making card houses. we each got given a couple of sheets of paper with a building on. I got Alvar Aalto's Summer House (which is a real bas**d to do). The paper included a side view, or two, a plan view and a view of the contors around the house... or at least that's what I got.
At the moment I'm drawing the house out to scale in AutoCad, which is taking some time. Ive found a video someone took whilst visiting the house, which conveniently shows all sides of the house, so I'm working on adding them to the CAD drawing now.... no pics to add yet, sooooo yeah.

Still catching up....
Next Project was Simulation, we were given a describing word and an object and we had to make whatever we were given in a high quality. I managed to get "furry" and "park bench". So i made a furry park bench.
At first i thought of making a scale model, and that "fur" could be used loosely, as snow has a furry texture, as does mould. However these plans didn't last long and I ended up making a full size furry park bench, all be it, only a bit of it. I used MDF and red fur (red because it was cheap, and there wasn't enough purple to cover the bench :/ )
Below is the finished product: (I only needed to make enough of the bench to suit the photograph i wanted at the end)
Final Pic:
:D twas a fun project, comments on the final picture would be nice, i quite like it.... and theres no photoshop used at all, just natural light :)

Oooops, catch up....
Wow, I've really not been on here in quite some time. Looking back at what I last put on here, there's not much that shows what I did with any of the research and lessons we were having at the time. So, at the end of the Vermeer project, I did successfully finish; fake bread, apples, plums, strawberries, and a model globe.
Cant remember how to do it now, but with any luck I'm going to upload pics of them all....
Fake Fruit (fake bread is in the background):
Don't seem to have a pic of the finished globe, but below is one of the globe, and then the stand (pics the wrong way round, but you get the idea), you'll just have to imagine them together:
