Course Objective

The class aims; to teach how to make plastic modelling, maqutte techniques, methods and materials, to improve these knowledge and to bring together with practice by ensuring the production of scale and non scale projects.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   1 To have knowledge about the preparations for to make a three dimentional model from a design which he/she designed with two dimentional perception, a form or an object,
2   2 To do the scaling process of the designed space, form ar objects by the correct methods,
3   3 To have the knowledge about which material or materials can proper for the modelling process or production of scaled design objects,
4   4 To recognize and to be able use well the auxiliary tools which he/she need in the production process.
5   5 To convert an existing three dimentional object to a correct scaled, detailed, realistic and with high power of persuation maquette,
6   6 To follow-up every contemporary technical equipment which can be used for the plastic modelling and maquette making, and to improve these techniques by experimental practices.

Course Contents

Week Subject Description
1 1 A birifing will be made about the class and general information for collecting the necessary materials for maquette making. 11 The subject of converting a real object to a maquette by using the method of scaling will be explained, and an assignment will be announced about the subject.
2 2 General information about preperations to convert a designed two dimentional object to a three dimentional model by scaling. 12 After the evaluation of the research and project assignments, improving realism studies will be made by practice of maquette and detailing process.
3 3 Information will be made about the basic equipment and auxiliary tools which will be esed during the modelling and maquette making process, a practical presentation will be made about how to use these equipment and tools. 13 General repetition of class term.
4 4 Students will practice the equipments and tools repeatedly in supervision of the teacher of class. 14 Discussion and evaluating of the projects
5 5 A practical expression will be made about how to convert a two dimentional basic object to a three dimentional scaled object. 15 Discussion and evaluating of the projects
6 6 Assignments will evaluated and disguss and scaling will be practice again onto detailed two dimentional object. Practices will evaluated at the end of the class.
7 7 Informations will be given about the materials used in the field of maquette and plastic modelling and the alternatives of them, and a practical expression will be made to do realistic texture on the maquette by using various materials.
8 8 Informations will be given about the materials used in the field of maquette and plastic modelling and the alternatives of them, and a practical expression will be made to do realistic texture on the maquette by using various materials.
9 9 Informations will be given about the criterions in the process of choosing materials, and an assignments will announced about the subject.
10 10 Assignments will evaluated, discussed and practices will be made by using the materials which delivered in terms of assignments.

Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

In this class; the basic knowledge wil be given which has to known for the maquette making and plastic modelling, then practical information will be made about scaling, material selection and the production techniques which will be needed for the production process. Besides the necessary technic rules for to convert the objects which does exist, to maquette by reduced scaling techniques will be taught, and the maquettes of the full scale real objects wil be asked as assigments for feedback from the studenst. The materials will be used in the lecture process will provided by the teacher of the class, the materials will be used in the all student practice and asignments will provided by the students.
