Final piece

 on the left is what my dragon would of looked like if i had managed to finish it, i drew it on a layout and scanned it in to complete it on photoshop.

this is my 3D dragon that i made from chicken wire, mod rock and old bottle lids. i realised it was made too big when it needed support for it to stand (and at the point it took two grown men to move it), on the left is the step by step imagery of my dragon. firstly i moulded bits of chicken wire to make the head, body, legs, wings etc. i then covered it in strips of wet mod rock and waited for it to dry before applying one layer of green paint on it. it was at the near completion where i realised i would be here for a long time before i could complete the mammoth like dragon which according to my piers looked more like a dinosaur. the one layer of paint wasn't enough for the model and so i knew i had to paint on many more layers, it was very light and made the groves and edges stand out even more than they already did. if i had to change anything it would be the size, it was way too big, also i would make it out of objects that i do not have to mould and cover in mod rock because when i got to the under sections and so on the mod rock wouldn't stick and would tend to hang down.

Interactive poster














When someone rides the bike the first step lights up and the screen zooms in to the first arrow and it shows the water rising to the cloud and the green dragon pops up from the bottom of the screen and says "the sun makes the water evaporate and rise in the air where it turns into vapour and collects together to make fluffy white clouds." Then it moves onto the the second arrow, zooms in and he says;" as the fluffy white cloud collect more water from the oceans and lakes they get heavier and turn into a dark grey, thats how we can tell when its going to rain." as it zooms out it shows the cloud raining and says "when the fluffy cloud is full up it lets all the water go and falls down as rain. The rain goes back into the oceans and lakes and all over the land so we can grow fruits and vegetables. The water cycle starts again and again and again."
