This is a picture of my 3D and 2D parts for my visual studies collages that we have to make for class . This project needs work because I have a lot of the different pieces cut out but I don’t have them assembled and not positive as to where I want to put them. I honestly need to just sit down and play with the different pieces to see what I can create.
