Larger Than Life: Dream BIG, Aim small

This project was during the study of scale. We were required as a group to recreate an everyday object only MUCH bigger then the normal size. As a group we chose to do a dart because we did not have the money to spend on creating something that required more then cheap or found objects. In fact we only spent $11 on this project as many other groups would spend $50-$150. The tip of the dart is a metal spike, the gold grip part is an aquafina bottle, soup cans, texture plastic wrap and gold spray paint. The black stem of the dart is a plastic baseball bat, plastic piping and a plastic mountain dew cup all covered in black spray paint. Finally, the fins are cardboard that was spray painted red and I hand painted the logo on each side. We also build a stand for our dart board and nailed the dart into it.

What a stellar group!
