Foam Modelling

Base Modelling

First you want to go and get a foam block for a base from the DT storage and as you go in and turn right you can choose the size of the base you can choose.

You then draw the outline of the box and cut the paper, after you then want to draw the shape of the base that you want

Since i also want to add more shapes to the base i added and cutted out the size of the shape of the base to match and stick it on the the sides of the shape.

cut the drawn shape on paper and on foam and shape the foam out however you want your shape to be.

I started to model the added base by filing the shape to make it more smooth and how want it to be blending with the middle piece

I then added another side to the base and have repeated what i have just done but on another

Neck Modeling

I first drew of the foam model for me to make the desired shape that i want and first shaped it like this

i've choose a long thin piece as my neck from the storage area and then start by cutting a slot in the base to fit the neck into and started to shave out the parts to blend in with the base and shaved off the remains i didnt want

Head Modeling

Ive picked 2 pieces for my head the long rectangular one and one square liked shape for the end of the head to hold the light . I have then drawn a shape in for the head piece to fit in with the neck piece

I then cut the shapes out and made a slot for the head to fit in to put it together. First i have tried tape to stuck it together but didn't work and then used the glue to put it together

Then shaved the back part of the head to match with the neck and made more dimensions to the model

But as i was modeling i made a mistake by file the model too much and it didnt match it had to file the other down too.

From a part necking out to almost making it straight

Now I am going to match the 2 block together and shape by filing the access parts of the together

When I was filing it down it some how cracked but continued and try not to make a big fuss of the crack

I then went back with the same technique and used tape to stick it together and then shaved off the parts below but I didn't continue further as the i still had the light bulb. I then got a small piece of foam then shaved it down to the correct shape i want.

Last I go some toothpicks and stuck them in between the head and lamp making it stick and stiff
