Cardboard has to be the hardest material we have worked with this quarter. I sketched the whole T-Rex on a large sheet of cardboard, and then cut it out with a box cutter. Then on the back of the piece I added a piece of thin cardboard in order to look like its popping out. All together the piece turned out great.
The pinch pot was hard to mold into shape at first, but then got easier as I started putting more detail into it. At first it was just a head with no neck piece attached to it, but after a while I wanted the piece to look more realistic, so then later added the neck piece. The ears were the trickiest part to do, bending and pinching the ears to look more floppy, but in the end they turned out nicely. Overall the piece turned out great.
