some more sketches of my form development flashlight. I had to compromise somewhat on my design. My teacher wasn't feeling the futuristic one that looked like a "spaceship." However, he really liked the simpler squid one. So I combined the concept of the rod partition and the form he liked to come up with this final direction for my flashlight design. Ideally, the green rods are emergency glow sticks, that if needed can be snapped into glow if the user wants to use the flashlight as a torch lantern, or if the batteries go out. Thus, it's sort of a multi-use emergency flashlight as well.
As I am getting closer and closer to the actual stage of fabricating this form, I am sort of worried as to how I will pull off the two part rod section of my light...
But either way, we can't do anything til the school gives us our foam. I feel like the administration department at our school is being irresponsible when they force us to pay a ridiculous amount of tuition, just to sit around and have us wait for materials for 5 weeks. IMO, that is grounds for a refund. But, as all IDS students, we don't even have time to picket because the hw sketches pile up.
