SIREN 'JIBARO'
After watching the Love, Death and Robots episode 'Jibaro', University of Hertfordshire graduate Izzy Newman was inspired to create this wonderful Siren figure.
Izzy used Plastaline for the initial sculpt, from which she created a mould. The Siren was then cast using Fast Cast resin. It was dressed with Gold Leaf and adorned with a range of beads. The water splash is a clear 3D print that was embedded in clear resin, that was dyed to match the print.

PROJECT EREBUS
Erebus is a project combining remote flying technology with bat conservation. The idea is to build a small plane that houses a microphone in order to record bat populations.
Tom A & Tom M had to build a RC plane with as large a wing area as possible that also had to be light and strong. They chose Kapa foamboard supplied by us to form these wings.
The wing stiffness is partially provided by a 2m carbon fibre spar which runs the length of the wing and is held in place using foamboard 'formers' which help create the aerofoil shape of the wing.
Full details of the project can be found at projecterebus.weebly.com
