More Painting

This week at tech I had the chance to do more painting on my hearts. I had to apply another coat so the colour would pop out more. I spent about 15-20 minutes second coating and then I was finally done. This is how my hearts look but the red is lighter and the blue is more dark.

After my painting session Miss Ferguson made a wooden 35 x 35 square and then a platform for my shape to go in. I had to sand the wood so the sides would get smoother then I added some glue, stuck the platform and the part where the pieces go in together and left it to dry. You will see on the side is an example of how it looks. Next week I need to paint the platform and I'll be done.

Making My First Game

Yesterday in Graphics, with Miss Ferguson I made my first game on the Tinker Cad. I chose Naughts and Crosses to begin with because it was an easy option.

I first started to make platform for where the pieces would go. I had to make a large box and some smaller ones in them and grouped it altogether. At first it was a fail because the top two corner boxes but I'm not too sure why... Then, I asked Mrs Ferguson for help. She looked at it and tried to make it worked.

After that, I started to make my pieces for the game, I decided to go with red and blue hearts. The pieces were probably the easiest part because I just had to add in hearts and colour them.




At the end I just had to duplicate the hearts and add it into the squares. This is how it turned out.

Planning Our Games

This week with Miss Ferguson we were planning on how to make paper games into 3D. We had a piece of paper each and came up with our own ideas of turning games into 3D and customizing them ourselves.

So far the games I have thought of are Hearts and Hearts (naughts and crosses) and the Emoji Board. My favourite idea is probably the Emoji Chess Board because I was able to use any emoji of my liking. I have only figured out the emoji pieces but I am still customizing the game.

As for the hearts and hearts it will be a simple 3 by 4 with 6 red hearts and 6 blue hearts, the aim will be to get 3 in a row like the normal game but with hearts.
