Self-portrait in Color Blogger

Image
This is the self portrait in color. I decided to make a piranha plant from Super Mario. The image below this was my inspiration for my work: I didn't want to just copy it completely. So, I decided to put my actual portrait instead of the piranha at the top and bottom right where the pipes are. I decided that as a final touch I would also put a question block from Super Mario.

Despite this, it was fun to do this part of the robot project.  This is the image of my robot final:  This part of the project was definitely more difficult compared to creating the draft. I originally wanted to put this root in an underwater cave, but I realized that a laboratory is also a perfectly good setting for my robot. The most difficult part of the project by far was creating a shadow for the robot. The method you showed was in class to create a shadow works, but it is tedious way to do it.  Instead, ...
