Time for a real vacation! =D

It's been yonks since I blogged, mostly due to final projects I had to complete. Now however I have 1 and a half months of fun and blogging! woop woop!
Actually I have already started as I have spent a day in Jeju biking around, which was so relaxing, but I am sure to feel it tomorrow =P 
So to catch you all up on what I have been doing, (which has been work pretty much) I've had 4 design projects all up, one was a scarf which I designed, that can be worn in many different ways. I have three really amazing friends who helped model my scarves, the first was a prototype and the other two were my main scarves which comes in two lengths, short & long.


This is Atara who modelled my two prototypes, in the end I changed both scarves and dyed them and the black and white one became my final product.
It was awesome that she was totally prepared to get her makeup done and Nurit was probably more excited to get her dressed up than me :P






 This is Ben from Thailand she helped my model the first of the two scarves I ended up exhibiting, I’m so glad she was willing to do it considering we were both scrambling to finish our final projects. She was a great model too, although she is so tiny lol.















This is Fabi, my amazing Argentinean/Korean friend, she helped me take final photo's for the long scarf I made. It was really good weather and in was at a park behind our school, so convenient and she had just finished her exam too. 
It's a shame I didn't visit this place more often, maybe if one of these days the humidity drops (unlikely lol) I will take another stroll down there.
 








So that was for Creative thinking for Fashion product class.
Here is the final work on display at the exhibition that was held for some of the classes I took...




Another class I had was form development, where I made a sculpture based on my character, very interesting class. Not much else to say about that really except that the professor said I’ll be rich in 5 years from now =P however he was drunk at the time he said it, and he foretold that by the shape of my forehead and nose…ㅋㅋ
These are photos of the sculpture at different views...






 The other class that I took which I finally finished today was another Product design class, this one however was not with IDAS but with Hongik Uni. It was stressful up until the last minute they presented, I say they because my classmates presented it while I was here in Jeju finishing up an animation of our shower product. I don’t have all the pictures to fully explain how it works but I do have the renders I did of the final outcome. 

Check out the final animation I did at

 These are some renders of the shower.
Hopefully the outcome makes up for the days of not blogging =P
Anyways it's getting late here and I want to wake up early tomorrow to go explore more of Jeju and take more photo's, so I will continue to update tomorrow.
YES! SIGH OF RELIEF that I finally finished this semester off!
